Build from Source

You can use the go get commands to build from sources. To do this you need to install:

• Go
• Git
• Hg

If this is done then you just need to do the following:

go get github.com/geonetwork/gnm_collect

This will clone gnm_collect and all dependencies as well as build a binary for gnm_collect. The binary can be executed as follows:

./bin/gnm_collect -user admin -pass admin  

You can run directly from the source (rather than compiled binary with:

go run src/github.com/geonetwork/gnm_collect/gnm_collect.go

All dependencies are cloned and you can build from your GOPATH directory

Distribution

Linux example:

mkdir gnm_collect_1.0    
cp bin/gnm_collect gnm_collect_1.0/
cp -r src/github.com/gonum/plot/vg/fonts gnm_collect_1.0/
tar czf gnm_collect_1.0.tar.gz gnm_collect_1.0/  
rm -rf gnm_collect_1.0
