Unable to install and use truss

[brentgriffin]

Attempted to install truss and use it to generate code for the provided echo.proto example file.

Tried to follow install instructions here https://github.com/metaverse/truss#install but did not work. Perhaps because of my version of go. It loaded into the ~/go/mod directory and I could not get the make to work from there. So, I installed via homebrew - e.g. brew install metaverse/tap/truss

I tried multiple things including pulling the code from git into the expected ~/go/src location. Most recently ran truss from this location: ~/go/src/github.com/metaverse/truss/_example

Now getting error when I try to generate code for example file:

truss -v echo.proto

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Thats certainly a strange and concerning error

@zaquestion Now I think the merge request is not valid. I thought the hardcoded GOPATH was an issue in go.yml. But It doesn't seem like that. This merge request can be ignored

For me what fixed the issue was:

1. brew uninstall metaverse/tap/truss
2. Set the GOPATH
3. Cloned the repo in $GOPATH/src/github.com/metaverse'
4. make dependencies && make

@vpiyush Thanks for looking into this! Perhaps theres some issue with the brew route now, it worked when i first set it up, but weve had a couple releases since then, something may have changed somewhere
