@jdiedrick Looks like you have older github.com/ghodss/yaml version at local, please add the -u flag when getting swag like:
go get -u github.com/swaggo/swag/cmd/swag

@jasonhancock please reopen it if you have any questions.

Followed the recommendation and still "zsh: command not found: swag"

I have installed swag as follows: go get -u github.com/swaggo/swag/cmd/swag. But when I run "swag", I got error like: -bash: swag: command not found. how can I resolved this issue? thanks.
Mac OS version: 10.14.3 and golang version: go1.11 darwin/amd64

@stiffer-cl the binary will likely have been installed to $GOPATH/bin/swag. Run if from there or copy the file from there to somplace in your $PATH

Thanks, I was able to resolve the issue by using the full path to the swag code base as you recommended.

Path variable must be set:
After running go get -v -u github.com/swaggo/swag/cmd/swag
Please check /usr/local/go/bin or $HOME/go/bin where those swag executable is present.

Make sure you have that PATH in /etc/profile or $HOME/.profile

e.g. export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/go/bin

Hi @pnutmath @jasonhancock I did the following

1. Ran go get -v -u github.com/swaggo/swag/cmd/swag
2. I see swag in $HOME/go/bin
3. I then tried running swag init in my work space where I have my main.go but I got "-bash: swag: command not found".
4. I then ran swag init in $HOME/go/bin and I got the same error

I am new to Golang. Can you please help?

[jasonhancock]

@hariraogotit from the directory with your main.go, run $HOME/go/bin/swag or add $HOME/go/bin to your $PATH, or copy $HOME/go/bin/swag to a directory in your $PATH

@hariraogotit from the directory with your main.go, run $HOME/go/bin/swag or add $HOME/go/bin to your $PATH, or copy $HOME/go/bin/swag to a directory in your $PATH

thank you very much that worked

@jasonhancock, please use export PATH=$(go env GOPATH)/bin:$PATH
