Hi, you can also use docker. There are official docker images in docker hub: https://hub.docker.com/_/golang/
As shown in the docker hub page, you can use the command: docker run --rm -v "$PWD":/usr/src/myapp -w /usr/src/myapp golang:1.6 go build This way you can easily use whichever version you require.
