why don't you include linux/ubuntu instructions to install with snap?

sudo snap install go

done.

2

installing with the instructions gives this error:

user@server:~/downloads/podgrab$ go build -o ./dist/podgrab ./main.go
../../go/pkg/mod/github.com/mattn/[email protected]/isatty_tcgets.go:6:8: missing go.sum entry for module providing package golang.org/x/sys/unix (imported by github.com/mattn/go-isatty); to add:
        go get github.com/mattn/[email protected]

running go get github.com/mattn/[email protected] resolves the issue

3

there is no example on how to modify the .env file, what changes are recommended or required or not needed, what the variables are for exactly.

running podgrab with default config gives this output
