Compress each binary release

Question

alexellis opened this issue 5 years ago · comments

We should compress each binary so that the download is quicker. Tar/gzip seems the most portable option.

The get.sh script must also be updated.

This is needed after adding the EC2 SDK which took us from 8mb to 38mb 🤯

For the sake of documentation, I am posting the size comparison of gzip and bzip2 compression of the inletsctl binary for linux

@utsavanand2 how soon can you get a PR up for this? You'll need to edit the bash scripts, maybe the makefile and the travis file.

get.sh also will need an update to download and extract.

I'll put this one up as soon as I can. Most likely tonight only!

I've updated get.sh but need to update the Makefile and travis.yml
