kubeapps dashboard fails on windows

[ngtuna]

kubeapps.exe up/down works fine on windows but dashboard. Reported by @sameersbn

C:\Users\sameersbn\Desktop>kubeapps.exe dashboard
�[31mERRO�[0m[0000] not supported by windows

Update:

I compiled kubeapps using the following steps (refer #84) and everything (including kubeapps dashboard) functions properly.

# -- UBUNTU --
# docker run -it --rm -v /home/sameersbn/workdir/bitnami/go:/go ubuntu:trusty bash

# -- DEBIAN --
# docker run -it --rm -v /home/sameersbn/workdir/bitnami/go:/go debian:stretch bash

apt update && apt install curl make build-essential mingw-w64 git-core

cd /opt
curl https://storage.googleapis.com/golang/go1.9.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz | tar zxf -
export GOROOT=/opt/go
export PATH=${GOROOT}/bin:${PATH}

# -- COMPILATION --

export GOPATH=/go
export TARGET=x86_64-w64-mingw32

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/kubeapps/kubeapps
make test

export CC="$TARGET-gcc"
export CXX="$TARGET-g++"
export GOOS="windows"
export GOARCH="amd64"
go env

# edit Makefile to add `-static` linker flag

make VERSION="$VERSION" binary-travis
mv kubeapps kubeapps.exe

Thanks @sameersbn. So I suggest to leave this issue open until we solve #94 and test the binary directly compiled on windows.

The windows binary fixed this issue so I will close it now
