Install Fuda

What you will learn

You will add Fuda to an existing Go module and check that the dependency is available.

Before you start

Install Go and open a terminal in the root of your Go project. Your project should contain a go.mod file.

Step 1: Add the dependency

Run:

go get github.com/arloliu/fuda

Go adds Fuda to your module dependencies.

Step 2: Check your module file

Open go.mod. It should include github.com/arloliu/fuda in a require block or as a direct requirement.

What happened

Your project can now import github.com/arloliu/fuda. You do not need a separate Fuda command-line tool to load configuration.

Common mistakes

Run go get from the directory that contains your application's go.mod. If Go says it cannot find a module, create one with go mod init example.com/your-app before you install Fuda.

Next step

Build your first configuration with a YAML file, a default value, and an environment override.
