API Tokens

GoReleaser requires either a GitHub API token with the repo scope selected to deploy the artifacts to GitHub or a GitLab API token with api scope or a Gitea API token. You can create one here for GitHub or here for GitLab or in Settings | Applications | Generate New Token page of your Gitea instance.

This token should be added to the environment variables as GITHUB_TOKEN or GITLAB_TOKEN or GITEA_TOKEN respecively. Here is how to do it with Travis CI: Defining Variables in Repository Settings.

Alternatively, you can provide the GitHub/GitLab token in a file. GoReleaser will check ~/.config/goreleaser/github_token, ~/.config/goreleaser/gitlab_token and ~/.config/goreleaser/gitea_token by default, you can change that in the .goreleaser.yml file:

# .goreleaser.yml
env_files:
  # use only one or release will fail!
  github_token: ~/.path/to/my/gh_token
  gitlab_token: ~/.path/to/my/gl_token
  gitea_token: ~/.path/to/my/gitea_token

!!! info you can define multiple env files, but the release process will fail because multiple tokens are defined. Use only one.

GitHub Enterprise

You can use GoReleaser with GitHub Enterprise by providing its URLs in the .goreleaser.yml configuration file:

# .goreleaser.yml
github_urls:
  api: https://git.company.com/api/v3/
  upload: https://git.company.com/api/uploads/
  download: https://git.company.com/
  # set to true if you use a self-signed certificate
  skip_tls_verify: false

If none are set, they default to GitHub's public URLs.

GitLab Enterprise or private hosted

You can use GoReleaser with GitLab Enterprise by providing its URLs in the .goreleaser.yml configuration file:

# .goreleaser.yml
gitlab_urls:
  api: https://gitlab.mycompany.com/api/v4/
  download: https://gitlab.company.com
  # set to true if you use a self-signed certificate
  skip_tls_verify: false

If none are set, they default to GitLab's public URLs.

Gitea

You can use GoReleaser with Gitea by providing its URLs in the .goreleaser.yml configuration file:

# .goreleaser.yml
gitea_urls:
  api: https://gitea.myinstance.com/api/v1/
  download: https://gitea.myinstance.com
  # set to true if you use a self-signed certificate
  skip_tls_verify: false

The dist folder

By default, GoReleaser will create its artifacts in the ./dist folder. If you must, you can change it by setting it in the .goreleaser.yml file:

# .goreleaser.yml
dist: another-folder-that-is-not-dist

Using the main.version

Default wise GoReleaser sets three ldflags:

  • main.version: Current Git tag (the v prefix is stripped) or the name of the snapshot, if you're using the --snapshot flag
  • main.commit: Current git commit SHA
  • main.date: Date according RFC3339

You can use it in your main.go file:

package main

import "fmt"

var (
	version = "dev"
	commit  = "none"
	date    = "unknown"
    builtBy = "unknown"
)

func main() {
  fmt.Printf("my app %s, commit %s, built at %s by %s", version, commit, date, builtBy)
}

You can override this by changing the ldflags option in the build section.

Overriding Git Tags

You can force the build tag and previous changelog tag using environment variables. This is useful in cases where one git commit is referenced by multiple git tags.
