Chapter 3. What Are we Building under Setup

Hello,

In the IPFS installation you mentioned this line of code:
--> go get -d github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs

But on the install page of IPFS at https://ipfs.io/docs/install/, it's written: "Warning: In the past you could install IPFS using go get this does not work anymore!"

It's just needed for clarification.

Thank you in advance.

Arnault

There is no source code on github. Only README file is there.

There's a very small error on page 34 paragraph 3, it says "any governing legal contracts,given" when it should be "any governing legal contracts, given"

There is mention how easy it is to add and retreive data from IPFS:

Than a code will show up. How should we run this code? Dow we have to type in in a terminal? Create a new file and run it? How and where to run this code?

//Start a node
node, err := kerala.StartNode()
if err != nil
{
panic(err)
}
//Add your text to IPFS (Creates MerkleDAG)
var userInput = r.Form["sometext"]
Key, err := kerala.AddString(node, userInput[0])
//Get all your text from IPFS (Retrieves MerkleDAG)
tweetArray, _ := kerala.GetStrings(node)

Including the errata information I still can get the finger how to install kerala.

I tried: go get -u github.com/llSourcell/go-kerala/kerala

It ask for my username on github and password. (I have a github account, probably soms users not!!). Explain them you have the creat a account on github first.

Anyhow even when I fill in my github account i get the followning error:
# cd .; git clone https://github.com/llSourcell/go-kerala /home/perry/gocode/src/github.com/llSourcell/go-kerala
Cloning into '/home/perry/gocode/src/github.com/llSourcell/go-kerala'...
remote: Repository not found.
fatal: repository 'https://github.com/llSourcell/go-kerala/' not found
package github.com/llSourcell/go-kerala/kerala: exit status 128


Do I have to create a repository first? Please explain this step.
