Ansible role that installs Go. The latest stable release that has been compiled for x86 64-bit Linux systems is installed by default, and different platforms and versions are supported by modifying the role variables.
All of these variables are optional and should only be changed if you need to install a different version of Go (e.g. if you are installing on FreeBSD, or if you need to use an earlier release).
go_tarball: The tarball that you want to install. A list of options can be found on the Go Downloads page. The default is the official x86 64-bit Linux tarball for the latest stable release.
go_tarball_checksum: This variable specifies the algorithm and checksum for the tarball that you want to install (e.g. sha1:c7d78ba4df574b5f9a9bb5d17505f40c4d89b81c or sha256:a96cce8ce43a9bf9b2a4c7d470bc7ee0cb00410da815980681c8353218dcf146). The default is the SHA256 checksum of the official x86 64-bit tarball for the latest stable release. Checksums can be found on the Go Download Page.
go_version_target: The string that the go version command is expected to return (e.g. "go version go1.2.1 linux/amd64"). This variable is used to control whether or not the Go tarball should be extracted, thereby upgrading (or downgrading) a previously installed copy. If the installed version already matches the target, the extraction step is skipped.
go_download_location: The full download URL. This variable simply appends the go_tarball variable onto the Go Download URL. This should not need to be modified.
set_go_path: Whether or not to set the GOPATH for all users. The default is true.
