Windows release?

[Vasilich]

I am struggling to find a tool that works via gnmi protocol for windows.
I have seen commit #194 that has removed windows compilations from release. Is there any chance to get it back in release? or chance for me to compile it somehow locally? i have no experience with Go language at all.

Thanks in advance

To use gnmic on Windows you have a 2 options:

1. Install WSL2 on your windows machine and use gnmic for linux
2. Build gnmic from source:
   • Install golang18.x
   • Clone there repo: git clone https://github.com/karimra/gnmic && cd gnmic
   • If building on windows:
     • go build (a new executable gnmic.exe will be created in your $PWD)
   • If cross compiling on (linux/darwin) for Windows:
     • GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 go build (a new executable gnmic.exe will be created in your $PWD)

Thanks for the answer.
I still use WSL1, and gnmic works also there. Network connections in WSL2 don't work with complex IT infrastructure without DHCP servers.
But it is easier for me to use version compiled for windows, and building it with your instruction was also pretty easy.
