This guide will walk you through the installation of Go (Golang) on Fedora 30. Go is a programming language designed to ease the Development of reliable, simple, and efficient applications. It is an original product of Google Engineering.

In this guide, we will install Go 1.12 on Fedora 30 from official upstream repositories. To ensure the repositories are up-to-date, update the system.
sudo dnf -y update
Once you confirm it is up, install Go on Fedora 30 using the commands below.
sudo dnf -y install go
Test Go installation on Fedora 30
Now that we have Go installed on Fedora 30, let’s test to ensure it is working.
Start by creating your workspace directory.
mkdir $HOME/go
Create a directory inside it to host a test Go application.
cd $HOME/go mkdir -p src/helloworld && cd src/helloworld
Create a file named helloworld.go
that looks like:
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
fmt.Printf("hello, worldn")
}
Build the application with go tool
cd $HOME/go/src/helloworld
go build
This will generate a new file called helloworld
.
$ ls
helloworld helloworld.go
Execute the file by running.
$ ./helloworld
hello, world
To install the binary into your workspace’s bin directory, use:
$ go install $ ls ~/go/bin/ helloworld
To remove it use:
go clean -i
You can add your Go binary directory to $PATH
.
$ vim ~/.bashrc export PATH="$PATH:~/go/bin/" export GOPATH="~/go"
You have installed Go on Fedora 30. Enjoy developing Go applications on your Fedora Workstation.
