Feedback:
1: This needs a copy-pastable 1-5 lines at the top of the readme for installing it (which installs the binary, and adds it to your PATH, and appends to your .bashrc or .zshrc or whatever).
2: Please support metapackages, so that I can publish a list of all packages I want/use and "bingo install" that.
3: Consider a "bingo selfinstall" command that appropriately detects .zshrc/.bashrc/whatever and appends the magic PATH-munging. (cf "nextdns install")
4: That is an excellent name for a utility. (Much better than this cargo/crate/gem/bundle/beer/cask/tap crap.)
1: re: copy-paste install script: I'll definitely grind on this and see what we can do. Bingo requires my Run[1] package, which itself is written in go and can be installed via `go install github.com/TekWizely/run` -- Additionally, once you have Bingo installed, you can use IT to re-install Run and then manage your Run installation via Bingo itself ! A self-running install script for Bingo that installs a temporary version of Run, then installs Bingo, then uses Bingo to install a permanent version of Run would actually be quite clever !
2: re: metapackages: Bingo's goal is to be a useful wrapper on top of Go's built-in, and highly useful, install feature. Go's auto compile+install features are already getting pretty complex (ie code generation, specifying tags, etc)... The fact that you can download and install hugo with `--tags extended` from the command line is pretty sweet. That said, I would say any additional support (ie metapackages) might first start as a request against go install proper -- That said, it might be a nice addition to maybe fetch some kind of `go.install` file that contains basic steps for installing a complex package. If it was going to be a non-sanctioned idea, I would still want the format of the file/spec to stand on its own and be useful outside of Bingo.
3: re: shell/path setup script: PRs always appreciated ;)
4: Graci ! I am quite pleased with myself for the name - BTW: The idea for the tool came first. I then brainstormed the name ...
Thanks again and please lemme know if you have any further comments/questions! If nothing else please consider opening Issues for these ideas to help me keep track of them :)
