Installation

Doxyte is implemented in Go, so it should run on any operating system supported by the Go compiler. That said, it has only been tested on Linux.

Installing from source

Doxyte must be compiled from the source code. For that, you will need Git and a Go compiler.

To get the source code, run git clone https://git.sr.ht/~javiljoen/doxyte.

To build the program, run go build in the source code directory.

You should then copy the resulting doxyte executable to somewhere on your PATH, e.g. /usr/local/bin or ~/.local/bin, so that you can run it from any directory.

You can check that it successfully installed by running doxyte -h. It should display a synopsis of how to run the program.

On a Debian-based system, you can do the whole process with these commands:

# Install Git and Go
sudo apt install git golang-go

# Fetch the source code
git clone https://git.sr.ht/~javiljoen/doxyte

# Build it
cd doxyte
make

# Copy it onto the PATH
make install PREFIX=~/.local

# Test that it runs
doxyte -h
