How to build from source code?

[eandre]

Hey @goodforever! You can build encore from source using go build ./cli/cmd/encore.

To actually run it you'll need to point it at the location for the encore.dev runtime implementation as well as the Encore GOROOT. You can see the instructions for that here: https://github.com/encoredev/encore/blob/main/DEVELOPING.md

The Encore GOROOT is built from https://github.com/encoredev/go and uses the regular Go build process (run src/make.bash or equivalent).

I'll add some better instructions to DEVELOPING.md to explain this. Thanks!

Hey @eandre. I just checked both links but none of them work.

@sopta Thanks for flagging. There seems to be a sneaky bug in Github where is modifies the link url and adds "/issues/". If you copy the plain text url from Andrés comment and paste, it will work. (Update: Links are now fixed)
