installation by go install does not work

[Syuparn]

I tried to get a binary of this module via go install.
Currently, installation in Readme does not work for the latest version.

https://github.com/dolthub/go-mysql-server#installation

$ go version
go version go1.19.1 linux/amd64
$ go install github.com/dolthub/go-mysql-server@latest
go: github.com/dolthub/go-mysql-server@latest (in github.com/dolthub/[email protected]):
        The go.mod file for the module providing named packages contains one or
        more replace directives. It must not contain directives that would cause
        it to be interpreted differently than if it were the main module.

I have two questions about this.

1. Does this repository have a executable package?

go install github.com/dolthub/go-mysql-server installs and compiles the specified package as an executable.
I also cloned this repository and run go build in the root directory, but no executables are generated.
If the executable package is located in a different place, we should replace the go install argument with it.
(I have not found the place yet)

2. If not, are there any plans to create an executable package?

If there are no executables or CLIs for now but plans to create them, I am willing to contribute that.

Hi @Syuparn,

There aren't specific plans to create an executable main package, but we would certainly take a contribution that does this to start a local server with the in-memory database implementation.
