Adding a command to go build

I have a project that works across all os (windows, macos, Linux, freeBSD). However when the binary is built, and run on windows, the command prompt opens up with it. I would like to automatically add -ldflag -H=windowsgui as an argument to go build but I am not sure how to add it

Solution

  • I usually use a bat file for that!

    go build -v -o main.exe -ldflags -H=windowsgui
main.exe

    Then I just run build.bat .

    For other OSes, you could use a .sh script similar to this.
