goautomate is a Go tool that automates the process of checking and updating Go versions in your projects. It can detect the current Go version from various file types, compare it with the latest available version, and download the newest version if an update is available.

Features

• Detect current Go version from various file types (Dockerfile, go.mod, JSON configs, etc.)
• Check for the latest available Go version
• Download the latest Go version if an update is available
• Checksum validation for downloaded Go versions to ensure integrity
• Support for different operating systems and architectures

Installation

To install goautomate, use the following command:

go get -u github.com/Nicconike/goautomate

Usage

Basic Usage

goautomate -file <path-to-file> -os <target-os> -arch <target-arch>

This will check the specified file for the current Go version, compare it with the latest available version, and download the new version if an update is available.

Note

If you don't specify the os and arch type, the tool will download the latest version for your current operating system and architecture.

Minimum required Go version: 1.15

Command-line Options

• -file or -f: Path to the file containing the current Go version
• -version or -v: Directly specify the current Go version
• -os: Target operating system (windows, linux, macOS[darwin])
• -arch: Target architecture (386[x86], amd64[x86-64], arm64, armv6l[armv6])

Examples

1. Get version from a Dockerfile:

   goautomate -f Dockerfile

   

2. Get version from go.mod:

   goautomate -f go.mod

   

3. Specify version directly:

   goautomate -v 1.17

   

4. Download for a specific OS and architecture:

   goautomate -f version.json -os linux -arch arm64

   

Also, checkout a real example in the test-goautomate repository where this tool is used to check and update the Go version. And then upload the downloaded Go version to Github using Git LFS.

Supported File Types

goautomate can extract Go versions from various file types, including:

• Dockerfile
• go.mod
• JSON configuration files

The tool uses various regex patterns to detect Go versions, making it flexible for different project setups.
