Windows support

[freeman]

Fabio looks great ! At work we are mostly a windows team and it would be nice if we could benefit from it 😄

Is Windows support available, possible or considered ?

[magiconair]

Just try it and let me know how it goes. I don't have an environment to test this in.

go get -u github.com/eBay/fabio
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/eBay/fabio
git checkout v1.1.1
go build

[freeman]

Thanks for your answer. I'll try it out and will let you know.

I'm going to close this one for now. Pls re-open if necessary.

I'm at the moment experimenting with running fabio on Windows. So far it's working.. Do you see any reasons why that might not be the case now or in the near future?

[magiconair]

@floekke No. I'm going to publish Windows binaries from the next release onwards. Please open tickets for issues since I'm not testing this on Windows.

[floekke]

Perfect!

We are mostly a windows team and would like to know if there are installation instructions and/or binaries for fabio?

[magiconair]

@RXG0 Looks like the switch to goreleaser threw the Windows binary under the bus. https://github.com/fabiolb/fabio/releases/tag/v1.5.4 still has windows binaries. I'll manually add the other ones and fix the release process.

@RXG0 I've added the missing Windows builds for 386 and amd64 to the releases page. 1.5.7 does not build on Windows since I forgot to add a stub function. I'll push a 1.5.7.1 shortly.
