The go command doesn't work.

I tried running the command ans successfully installed the apktool but the install apkurlgrep doesn't seem to work. i cloned the github repo and then tried using go run apkurlgrep -a /path/to/apk but that didn't work as well. am i doing something wrong ?

I faced the same issue. I went in the go folder(in the workspace) which was in ~ for me and then manually ran the go file in /src/ndelphit/

go run apkurlgrep.go -a ~/path to apk file

Did manually running work for you? I tied running it manually as well but it didn't work for me. The apktool was working fine though.

yeah I had to manually compile the go file. The application doesn't works directly even though I added the path export GOPATH="$HOME/go" to the workspace where I have it installed(I am new to go so could be wrong or missing something somewhere). @ndelphit fyi

[Ri2parna]

Okay. Thanks :-)

Hi all,

Given the last two problems related to GOPATH, I think it would be good to create a binary of this program in releases page. This may help people who don't have installed GO on their machine.

I will do this as soon as possible.

@ndelphit I have GOLang installed in my system and still the application doesn't works for me directly. There is some other issue here! Therefore, I was able to compile your .go file and run it.
The problem is running the tool after installing it.

@sharad1126 , as I sad before in your previous ticket this is not an issue related to this project.

The issue which you described here is happen when you doesn't set go/bin directory into PATH. You can check this by going to the ~/go/bin folder. If you see the apkurlgrep file there, then everything is fine with the installation process.

For example my ~/.zshrc looks like:

  export GOPATH=$HOME/go
  export GOROOT=/usr/local/opt/go/libexec

  export PATH=$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin

@ndelphit I mentioned in the above comments that I have this setup already:
export GOPATH=$HOME/go

I'll add the line: export PATH=$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin too. thanks.
