Hi everyone,
`go get` in Golang world has a simple way to fetch and install
binary
```
$ go get github/foo/bar.git
$ export PATH=$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin
$ bar --help
```
This saves a lot of time and setup. Is that an alternative when
using dub?
Thanks a lot.
Hello,
you can use `dub build $name` to build the package. The resulting
binary should be in $HOME/.dub/$name-$version/$name/bin then. You
can also run the binary via `dub run $name -- $additional_args`,
then you won't have to add that path to your PATH. If you haven't
run `dub build $name` previously, `dub run $name` will do that
for you.
