what if

We have an Athens proxy that works! πŸŽ‰ 🎈 🍰 !

You can run GOPROXY=myproxy go get thing@version and the proxy:

  • Fetches thing@version if it doesn't have it in storage
  • Returns thing@version to the client
  • Stores thing@version in its storage

We've verified that it works for small and medium sized projects, and we think that's pretty good πŸ˜„. Good enough for our first alpha. Yay!

A history of this release, in tweets:

  • We opened a big kahuna
  • We did some live pair programming (with a lot more than just a pair of people) to fix the big kahuna
  • We fixed the big Kahuna and did quite a bit more
  • We've been doing some awesome, awesome work to make Athens more observable, more stable, and more efficient this whole time

Each and every contributor had a massive role to play to get use from zero lines of code to this point, so thank you all!

There's some super rad stuff coming up next, including wayyyy more docs (we're even gonna have a docs site!), publishing Docker images, and of course way more features and improvements. And, oh yea, look out for a registry coming to a cloud near you πŸ˜„
