goplaces

Version 2026.144.1443
Repo superproject

Installs the goplaces Google Places API CLI as a user-built Go binary on PATH. The goplaces candy go-installs github.com/steipete/goplaces into the user’s GOPATH bin. With GOPATH=~/go and ~/go/bin appended to PATH, the build’s single observable effect is a compiled, executable binary at ${HOME}/go/bin/goplaces. If the install step were skipped the binary would be absent, so its presence and executable bit are the verifiable proof the candy did its job.

This candy’s plan: — the runnable spec charly check executes against a live deployment. check: steps are idempotent probes; run: steps change state.

Intent Step
run command=go install github.com/steipete/goplaces/cmd/goplaces@latest go clean -cache
check the goplaces binary is go-installed into the user’s GOPATH bin
check the installed goplaces binary carries the executable bit
