🎷 Usage

CGO, soft-float, compression is disabled by default.

By default, compile for all architecture types. You can use the flags --os and --arch to specify the operating system or architecture, separated by commas. The program will automatically match valid architectures for compilation.

~$ release ./cmd/release
~$ release ./cmd/release --os linux,windows
~$ release ./cmd/release --arch amd64,386

During compilation, default ldflags include -extldflags "-static -fpic" -s -w as well as -trimpath. If additional custom ldflags are needed, you can use an additional flag to append them.

~$ release ./cmd/release --ldflags='-X main.Version=5.5.5'

~$ release ./cmd/release --disable-default-ldflags # Remove default ldflags.

When using --extra-arches, all child arches such as arm/v6, arm/v7 will be built.

By default, default arch will not add extra suffix to describe it's accurate arch. You can change this with --extra-arches-show-default flag.

~$ release ./cmd/release --extra-arches

~$ release ./cmd/release --extra-arches --extra-arches-show-default # Add arch suffix to default arch.

Compress to the specified format, dependent on the 7z library. If 7z library is not exist, it will try to use zip + zipnote or tar for different format. Currently supported formats include zip and tar.gz.

~$ release  ./cmd/release -c tar.gz

By default, the directory name of the target directory will be used, and the compilation result will be placed in the build directory. This can also be modified using flags.

~$ release ./cmd/release --output dist # Modify the output directory to be "dist"
~$ release ./cmd/release -d dist

~$ release ./cmd/release --name asd # Change the name to "asd".
~$ release ./cmd/release -o asd
