Installation

You may install Skel either by cloning the git repo and using golang's install command, or by copying the 'skel' binary from the repo's 'bin' directory; the latter is recommended since you will need to update it from time to time.

In either case, you will need to ensure that Git is set up and can communicate with the cto-github.cisco.com server. See the go-msx README for details.

Install from Artifactory

Download the skel tarball:

MacOS:

curl -L -o - https://engci-maven-master.cisco.com/artifactory/symphony-group/com/cisco/vms/go-msx-skel/latest/go-msx-skel-darwin-latest.tar.gz | tar -xzf -

Linux:

curl -L -o - https://engci-maven-master.cisco.com/artifactory/symphony-group/com/cisco/vms/go-msx-skel/latest/go-msx-skel-linux-latest.tar.gz | tar -xzf -

Move the skel binary to a location in your path:
```
mv skel ~/go/bin
```

Install via Go

Prerequisite: Go 1.18+

Ensure your GOBIN environment variable is correctly set and referenced in your PATH. For example:
```
export GOPATH=~/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
```
Recall that GOBIN defaults to $GOPATH/bin, or $HOME/go/bin if the GOPATH environment variable is not set.
Be sure to set your Go proxy settings correctly. For example:
```
go env -w GOPRIVATE=cto-github.cisco.com/NFV-BU
```

Check-out go-msx into your local workspace:

mkdir -p $HOME/msx && cd $HOME/msx
git clone git@cto-github.cisco.com:NFV-BU/go-msx.git
cd go-msx
go mod download

Install skel:
```
make install-skel
```
