With the rapid development of Internet technology, various programming languages have also emerged. Among them, as a new generation of statically compiled language, Golang (Go for short) has attracted much attention because of its efficiency, ease of use, good scalability and concurrency. This article will introduce in detail how to install the Golang environment under Windows, Mac, Linux and other operating systems. I hope it will be helpful to beginners.
1. Install Golang on Windows
First enter the official website of Golang (https://golang.org/dl/ ) Download the installation package that matches your system version. It is generally recommended to download the 64-bit version of Golang.
Open the downloaded .exe file and follow the prompts to complete the installation.
During the development process of Golang, you need to set the GOPATH environment variable. Under Windows system, you can follow the following steps to set:
(1) Open "Control Panel"->"System and Security"->"System".
(2) Select "Advanced System Settings" in the left navigation bar, and the "System Properties" dialog box will pop up.
(3) Select the "Advanced" tab in the dialog box and create a new system variable GOPATH under "Environment Variables" with the value being the working directory (for example: D:\Go_projects).
In the Windows system, press the "Windows R" key, enter cmd in the pop-up dialog box, and open the command line. Enter in the command line:
go version
If the Golang version information is output, it means the installation is successful.
2. Install Golang on MacOS
In MacOS, it is recommended to use Homebrew (package management system) to install Golang. Enter the following command in Terminal to install Homebrew:
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Enter the following command in Terminal to install Golang:
brew install go
The way to set the GOPATH environment variable in MacOS is similar to that in Windows. Enter the following command in Terminal:
export GOPATH=$HOME/Go_projects
Enter the command in Terminal:
go version
If the version information is output, it means the installation is successful.
3. Install Golang on Linux
In Linux, you can also go to Golang’s official website (https://golang. org/dl/) to download the installation package suitable for your system version.
In Terminal, enter the following command to decompress the installation package:
tar -C /usr/local -xzf go*. {tar.gz,zip}
Enter the following commands in Terminal to set GOROOT and GOPATH environment variables:
export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
export GOPATH=$HOME/Go_projects
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin:$GOPATH/bin
Enter the command in Terminal:
go version
If the version information is output, the installation is successful.
Summary
Golang is an easy-to-use and efficient programming language. It is not difficult to learn, but it is necessary to install the Golang environment on your computer. This article introduces in detail how to install Golang under Windows, MacOS, Linux and other systems. Now you can successfully install and start learning Golang according to your own system environment.
