Install Go on Ubuntu

Here is a quick gist that installs Go on Ubuntu.

Go root will be in usr/local/go
Go path will be in $HOME/go

wget https://go.googlecode.com/files/go1.1.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.1.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz
rm go1.1.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz

mkdir -p "$HOME/go/"{src,pkg,bin}
echo 'export GOPATH="$HOME/go"' >> "$HOME/.profile"

echo 'export GOROOT="/usr/local/go"' >> "$HOME/.profile"
echo 'export PATH="$GOROOT/bin:$GOPATH/bin:$PATH"' >> "$HOME/.profile"

source "$HOME/.profile"
