Travis CI + Go: creating a specific build flow for different OS - go

Question

I have a Go project that I want to build with Travis-CI and deploy it to a specific provider.
I familiar with Gimme project that will use a cross-compilation to do so.
But because Travis already support linux and osx I only need this feature for Windows build.
The big motivation is, of course, to avoid cross-compilation run time error as there are plenty of it.
My question is how can I create, in the same .travis.yml file, a different build flow:
Native linux/os build (with "os" section).
Windows compilation using Gimmme
The .travis.yml file for the first option will look something like:
language: go
go:
- 1.5.1
branches:
only:
- master
os:
- osx
- linux
before_script:
- go get -d -v ./...
script:
- go build -v ./...
# - go test -v ./...
before_deploy:
- chmod +x ./before_deploy.sh
- ./before_deploy.sh
The .travis.yml file for the second option will look something like:
language: go
go:
- 1.5.1
branches:
only:
- master
env:
- GIMME_OS=windows GIMME_ARCH=amd64
before_script:
- go get -d -v ./...
script:
- go build -v ./...
# - go test -v ./...
before_deploy:
- chmod +x ./before_deploy.sh
- ./before_deploy.sh
Is there a nice clean way to combine these two (with Environment variables or any other crazy idea)?

Answer 1

It might be simple, but matrix environement can not be done for a specific OS ...
Then just select with local environement variable:
language: go
go:
- 1.5.1
branches:
only:
- master
os:
- osx
- linux
install:
- if [ "$TRAVIS_OS_NAME" == "linux" ]; then
export GIMME_OS=windows;
export GIMME_ARCH=amd64;
fi
before_script:
- go get -d -v ./...
script:
- go build -v ./...
after_script:
- go test -v ./...
before_deploy:
- ./before_deploy.sh
An other way:
language: go
go:
- 1.5.1
branches:
only:
- master
matrix:
include:
- os: linux
env: GIMME_OS=windows; GIMME_ARCH=amd64;
- os: osx
before_script:
- go get -d -v ./...
script:
- go build -v ./...
after_script:
- go test -v ./...
before_deploy:
- ./before_deploy.sh
Note: the commande: - chmod +x ./before_deploy.sh can be directly done in your repository and commited on it ...
Note: The environament variable can be accessibe: http://docs.travis-ci.com/user/environment-variables/#Default-Environment-Variables or calling \printenv`
