How to compile & build, including notifiers? #95
Description
I'm trying to make some adjustments to the Slack notifier, but my changes aren't being reflected in the build. I must be missing something, maybe there's some Golang package/include behaviour that I don't understand.
How can we build the project with the top-level slack.go file?
My process so far:
# Download the project
git clone https://github.com/sourcegraph/checkup.git
cd checkup
# ... make some changes to ./slack.go - ie. changed the title of the message that gets posted,
# line 34 from "Status" to "Statusss"
# Also add several log lines, both `fmt.Printf` and `log.Printf`
# ... also create a ./checkup.json file with an intentionally-failing check and a valid notifier
# Build locally, as per docs
cd cmd/checkup/
go get -v -d
go build -v -ldflags '-s' -o ../../checkup
# Move back up and test the binary
cd ../../
./checkup

# All done - check Slack for message.The message is posted to Slack, but the title isn't the modified "Statusss" that I expect. I also don't see any of the debug logs that I inserted.
Am I missing a step to properly include the Slack notifier in a build? Is it imported from somewhere not local?

I encountered this earlier when implementing #100. Specifically, I was cloning it, like you, outside of my GOPATH.
The trick for me was following the Getting Started steps (using
go getto have it in my GOAPTH) from https://github.com/sourcegraph/checkup/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md.
