Build and Run¶
This project utilizes CGO for low-level networking capabilities, requiring specific dependencies and build flags.
Prerequisites¶
- Go Version: Go 1.22 or higher is required.
- C Compiler: A C compiler (GCC or Clang) must be available on your system.
- Network Dependency: The project relies on the libpcap library for packet capture functionality. You must install the development headers for this library before building.
Dependency Installation Examples¶
| Distribution | Command |
|---|---|
| Debian/Ubuntu | sudo apt update && sudo apt install libpcap-dev |
| Fedora/RHEL | sudo dnf install libpcap-devel |
| macOS (Homebrew) | brew install libpcap |
Running from Source Code¶
To run the application without building an executable, use the standard Go command. Command-line arguments can be passed directly after the package path.
Building an Executable¶
To build the executable, ensure CGO is enabled and run the standard Go build command targeting the /cmd directory:
