Grafana k6 OSS Support

Hi,
Have installed GO and xk6 as mentioned in GitHub - grafana/xk6: Build k6 with extensions.

When tried to build xk6-file extension getting below error:
C:\Program Files\Go\bin>xk6 build --with github.com/avitalique/xk6-file@latest

I am looking to use extension xk6-file, want to write data to file.

Thanks

Hi @huligesh.hanumanthap

This error indicates that something is off with your Golang installation:

2021/10/21 17:17:29 [FATAL] exec: “C:\Users\HanumHul\AppData\Local\Temp\buildenv_2021-10-21-1717.676274793\go.exe”: file does not exist

Here go.exe was not found in local folder: but it must be in the PATH variable instead. It makes sense to check Golang binary location and PATH value on your machine.
