Installing Gofer

Gofer comes as an easy to distribute pre-compiled binary that you can run on your machine locally, but you can always build Gofer from source if need be.

Pre-compiled (Recommended)

You can download the latest version for linux here:

wget -O gofer https://github.com/clintjedwards/gofer/releases/latest/download/gofer_amd64_linux_gnu
chmod +x gofer

From Source

You'll need Rust, plus mdbook and mdbook-linkcheck (cargo install mdbook mdbook-linkcheck) to build the documentation site that Gofer serves at /docs.

git clone https://github.com/clintjedwards/gofer && cd gofer
make build
ls ./target/release/gofer
