Building MailHog
MailHog is built using make
, and using this Makefile.
If you aren't making any code changes, you can install MailHog using
go get github.com/mailhog/MailHog
, since assets.go
is already pre-compiled and committed to this repository.
Why do I need a Makefile?
MailHog has HTML, CSS and Javascript assets which need to be converted to a go source file using go-bindata.
This must happen before running go build
or go install
to avoid compilation
errors (e.g., no buildable Go source files in MailHog-UI/assets
).
go generate
The build should be updated to use go generate
(added in Go 1.4) to
preprocess static assets into go source files.
However, this will break backwards compatibility with Go 1.2/1.3.
Building a release
Releases are built using gox.
Run make release
to cross-compile for all available platforms.
