## Quick Start 🚀
### Prerequisites 📋
- Go (1.22.2 or later)
*Don't want to install Go? No worries; you can use the pre-built binaries in the `dist` directory using the same arguments as the Go program.*
### Installation 🛠
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone
```
2. Navigate to the project directory:
```bash
cd clear-badge-cache
```
3. Run the go file directly with or without arguments:
```bash
go run main.go [repoURL] [badgeFile]
```
If no arguments are provided, the program will prompt you to enter the repository URL.
️
### Building 🔨
Run the appropriate build script from the `build-scripts` directory for your operating system:
- For Linux or MacOS, open your terminal and run:
```bash
./build-scripts/build.sh
```
- For Windows, run the following in Command Prompt or PowerShell:
```cmd
.\build-scripts\build.bat
```
This will compile the source code and produce an executable in the `dist` directory.
### Running 🏃
To run Clear Badge Cache, navigate to the `dist` directory and execute the binary:
- Linux/MacOS:
```bash
sh ./clear-badge-cache.sh
```
- Windows:
```cmd
.\clear-badge-cache.exe
```
#### Command Line Arguments 🖊️
You can provide the repository URL and optionally a badge file as command-line arguments:
```bash
clear-badge-cache [repoURL] [badgeFile]
```
If no arguments are provided, the program will prompt you to enter the repository URL.
#### Help
To display the help message, use the `-h` or `--help` flag:
```bash
clear-badge-cache -h
```
The help message is as follows:
```
usage: clear-badge-cache [ -h | --help | [ repoURL [ badgeFile ] ] ]
repoURL required unless provided on command line
badgeFile defaults to ''
```
