1.23.0

What happened?

I installed sqlc using go install github.com/sqlc-dev/sqlc/cmd/sqlc@latest

If I run sqlc version it says
zsh: command not found: sqlc

my go version - go1.21.3 darwin/arm64

I'm a newbie to go. Do I have to add anything to path or something like that?

Hey @dmgcoding, one quick question, do you have set the $GOBIN env var set? Make sure you have it set

Hey @dmgcoding, one quick question, do you have set the $GOBIN env var set? Make sure you have it set

what should the path be? to the go>bin folder?

[davidorozcog]

The documentation suggest GOBIN=$GOPATH/bin, so yes go/bin should be good

The directory where executables outside the Go distribution are installed using the go command. For example, go install golang.org/x/tools/cmd/godoc@latest downloads, builds, and installs $GOBIN/godoc. By default, $GOBIN is $GOPATH/bin (or $HOME/go/bin if GOPATH is not set). After installing, you will want to add this directory to your $PATH so you can use installed tools.

Note that the Go distribution's executables are installed in $GOROOT/bin (for executables invoked by people) or $GOTOOLDIR (for executables invoked by the go command; defaults to $GOROOT/pkg/$GOOS_$GOARCH) instead of $GOBIN.
