Installing the summon-s3 provider

[robgodfrey]

Hi

Possibly a dumb question, but how should the summon-s3 provider be installed? Is it clone from git, build, package and then move the dist package to /usr/libexec/summon/?

Thanks
Rob

Hi Rob,

There are prebuilt packages for OSX, Linux, and Windows available here. The easiest way to install them is to just unzip the appropriate archive and place the executable it contains in /usr/libexec/summon.

If you want to contribute to the project, your best bet for development work is actually to use go run main.go after installing the dependencies with godep.

The steps you describe are correct, but they are for building a full release (with executables for all three supported platforms).

Hope that helps, and let me know if you have any other questions.

Best,
Jon
