unable to go get or godeps

[palmertime]

It looks like the comments arn't commenting! Let me know what i'm doing wrong.

When trying to install this project i get the following:

terraform-provider-vix (master)$ godep get
# github.com/hooklift/terraform-provider-vix/vendor/github.com/hooklift/govix
vendor/github.com/hooklift/govix/guest.go:7:10: fatal error: 'vix.h' file not found
#include "vix.h"
         ^
1 error generated.
godep: go exit status 2
godep: exit status 1

terraform-provider-vix (master)$ go get github.com/hooklift/terraform-provider-vix
# github.com/hooklift/terraform-provider-vix/vendor/github.com/hooklift/govix
vendor/github.com/hooklift/govix/guest.go:7:10: fatal error: 'vix.h' file not found
#include "vix.h"
         ^
1 error generated.

Hey! I'm sorry you run into this issue. Because this module uses CGO and libvix C sources are not available, this module has to be cloned using Git instead.

Also, try to use the Makefile instead of the regular Go tooling, it should set some needed env vars for you

I am also having this issue. No vix.h in sight. VIX API is supposedly bundled with VMware Fusion. How do I make this build/install aware of that?

set CGO_FLAGS to /usr/include/vmware-vix if you're using vmware-workstation and
set CLD_FLAGS to -L/usr/lib/vmware-vix -lvixAllProducts.
