Setup for Linux

Prerequisites

• Go: Version 1.24.7 or higher is required.
• Git: Necessary for cloning the repository.
• Internet Access: Required for fetching search results.

This guide is kinda incomplete, as you also need C build tools for compilation/running.

Installing Go (if not already installed or version is too low)

Using Package Manager (Recommended)

• Ubuntu/Debian-based systems:

  sudo apt update
  sudo apt install -y golang-go
  

• Fedora/RHEL-based systems:

  sudo dnf install -y golang
  

• Arch-based systems:

  sudo pacman -S go
  

Manual Installation (If Go version from package manager is too low)

1. Download the latest Go tarball:

   VERSION=$(curl -fsSL https://go.dev/VERSION?m=text | head -n1)
   wget "https://go.dev/dl/${VERSION}.linux-amd64.tar.gz"
   

2. Extract it to /usr/local (replace existing Go if present):

   sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go
   sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf "${VERSION}.linux-amd64.tar.gz"
   

3. Add Go to your PATH (add this to ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc):

   export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
   

4. Verify installed version:

   go version

Running QGato

1. Install Git:

   sudo apt install -y git  # For Ubuntu/Debian
   sudo dnf install -y git  # For Fedora/RHEL
   sudo pacman -S git       # For Arch
   

2. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://weforge.xyz/Spitfire/Search.git
   cd Search
   

3. Make the script executable:

   chmod +x ./run.sh
   

4. Run the script:

   ./run.sh

Alternative (Using Go Directly)

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://weforge.xyz/Spitfire/Search.git
   cd Search
   

2. Run QGato with Go:

   go run .
   

That's it! QGato is now running.
