TL;DR: Is there a doc or wiki page on how to compile? I'm sure it's something simple and obvious, but I don't even know what to try or what to read at this point
So I have been struggling trying to get libbeat to compile. I am new to go programming so some of this might be obvious to people who have been developing go for a while. It seems like I'm supposed to copy the libbeats source code into my "src" directory in my go install(/usr/local/go)? Is that right?
That seems really messy. If I clone into a new directory (/code/security/beats), after I get docker 1.19 running, this is what make gives me:
/code/security/beats$ echo $GOPATH
/code/security/beats
/code/security/beats$ echo $GOROOT
/usr/local/go
/usr/local/go$ cat VERSION
go1.5.2
/code/security/beats$ uname -a

/code/security/beats)$ zsh --version

I read another post that seemed to indicate that libbeat needs to be copied into /usr/local/go/src/github.com/elastic/beats/libbeat/beat. Is that right? If so, which directory needs to be copied where and which make file should I be using or should I not even be using make ?
