Go Binaries
Go Binaries is an on-demand binary server, allowing non-Go users to quickly install tools written in Go without installing go itself, and removing the burden of cross-compiling and uploading dozens of binaries for every command-line you write.

Usage
Install PKG with optional semver VERSION.
curl -sf https://gobinaries.com/<PKG>[@VERSION], sh
Install PKG with optional semver VERSION to the given directory PREFIX. By default /usr/local/bin is used.
curl -sf https://gobinaries.com/<PKG>[@VERSION], PREFIX=/tmp sh
The github.com path prefix is optional.
Examples
Install the hey HTTP benchmarking tool:
curl -sf https://gobinaries.com/rakyll/hey, sh
Install the wuzz HTTP client:
curl -sf https://gobinaries.com/asciimoo/wuzz, sh
Install the latest version of staticgen:
curl -sf https://gobinaries.com/tj/staticgen/cmd/staticgen, sh
Install the latest 1.x major version of staticgen:
curl -sf https://gobinaries.com/tj/staticgen/cmd/staticgen@1.x, sh
Install the v1.0.0 version of triage:
curl -sf https://gobinaries.com/tj/triage/cmd/triage@1.0.0, sh
Semver support
The following semver patterns are supported:
- Exact version: 
v1.2.3,1.2.3 - Wildcards: 
v1.x,v1.2.x,1.x,1.2.x - Wildcards (implicit): 
v1,v1.2,1.2 - Leading 
vis optional, regardless of the Git tag 
How does it work?
Take for example you want to install @rakyll's fantastic HTTP benchmarking tool hey, to install the latest release you would run:
curl -sf https://gobinaries.com/rakyll/hey, sh
This request fetches the latest tag from GitHub and responds with a shell script
which performs a second request, populated with the resolved version and architecture as shown here:
https://gobinaries.com/binary/github.com/rakyll/hey?os=darwin&arch=amd64&version=v0.1.3
The response of this request is a Golang binary compiled for the requested os, architecture, and package version. The result is cached in a CDN for subsequent requests.
Limitations
- The Go package must compile in under 100 seconds (CDN limitation)
 - The Go package must have at least one Git tag
