This program is a rewrite of oftoast, by int, yours truly, and
other contributors. It includes a packer, less bugs, and speedier
downloads.
FEATURES:
Lightweight and fast:
Since this is written in a compiled, lower level language, murse is
much faster than the Python implementation. It's been designed to be
quicker too, adjustments have been made that make it significantly
speedier.
Cross-platform:
Of course, we have the usual suspects (Windows, Linux) but we also
support other operating systems, like FreeBSD or Plan 9. If Go is
ported to it, it will (probably) run.
Static builds:
This program uses pure Go libraries. You can build purely static builds,
which means that deploying is simply a matter of running the binary. No
more Python and Pip annoyances!
INSTALLATION:
Binary install:
Currently, we have automatic builds being pushed to dl.spiderden.net.
Linux: https://dl.spiderden.net/murse/linux
Windows: https://dl.spiderden.net/murse/windows
We also have builds hosted on SourceHut. People writing scripts and
package maintainers should use those binaries instead.
https://git.sr.ht/~welt/murse/refs
Source install (go install):
First, ensure Go is installed.
go install spiderden.net/go/murse@latest
# go install spiderden.net/go/murse@vX.X.X
# Ensure GOBIN is in your path.
Source install (source tarball):
cd $SOURCE_TREE
make
Then you can copy the murse binary to somewhere in your $PATH.
Gentoo:
The spiderden overlay has ebuilds for Gentoo. You can add the overlay
using eselect-repository:
eselect repository add spiderden git https://git.sr.ht/~welt/overlay
emerge --sync
emerge games-util/murse
