Building

confd uses the gb tool to manage dependencies and producing builds.

git clone https://github.com/kelseyhightower/confd.git
cd confd
gb build all

You should now have confd binary in the bin directory:

$ ls bin/
confd

Building with the go tool

$ git clone https://github.com/kelseyhightower/confd.git
$ cd confd

$ pwd
/Users/kelseyhightower/confd

$ cd src/github.com/kelseyhightower/confd/
$ GOPATH=/Users/kelseyhightower/confd/vendor:/Users/kelseyhightower/confd go build .

You can also produce a static binary too:

GOPATH=/Users/kelseyhightower/confd/vendor:/Users/kelseyhightower/confd go build \ 
  -a -installsuffix cgo -ldflags '-extld ld -extldflags -static' -a -x .
