gopls: reduce noisy error messages

- Fix a bug in the logic to suppress a context cancellation error
  computing the shared import graph.
- Remove ErrIsDefinition. It was introduced for testing in CL 196560,
  and is no longer needed.
- Update golang.SignatureHelp to return (nil, nil) in the case where
  SignatureHelp is simply not available.
- Suppress the mod tidy diagnostic error when GOPROXY=off. It is too
  noisy, and golang/go#56395 tracks the fix for the root cause.
- Suppress noisy errors about semantic tokens. Researching the history
  behind this error, it seems it was only added to force the
  invalidation of semantic tokens client-side. The same can be achieved
  by returning a non-nil, empty result.
- Enforce that marker tests encounter no error logs, with an -errors_ok
  flag to allow them in select cases.
- Update the -min_go version of some marker tests that use a go.mod file
  with a too-new go version. This was an error log.

For golang/go#66746

Go Tools

PkgGoDev

This repository provides the golang.org/x/tools module, comprising various tools and packages mostly for static analysis of Go programs, some of which are listed below. Use the “Go reference” link above for more information about any package.

It also contains the golang.org/x/tools/gopls module, whose root package is a language-server protocol (LSP) server for Go. An LSP server analyses the source code of a project and responds to requests from a wide range of editors such as VSCode and Vim, allowing them to support IDE-like functionality.

Selected commands:

  • cmd/goimports formats a Go program like go fmt and additionally inserts import statements for any packages required by the file after it is edited.
  • cmd/callgraph prints the call graph of a Go program.
  • cmd/digraph is a utility for manipulating directed graphs in textual notation.
  • cmd/stringer generates declarations (including a String method) for “enum” types.
  • cmd/toolstash is a utility to simplify working with multiple versions of the Go toolchain.

These commands may be fetched with a command such as

go install golang.org/x/tools/cmd/goimports@latest

Selected packages:

  • go/ssa provides a static single-assignment form (SSA) intermediate representation (IR) for Go programs, similar to a typical compiler, for use by analysis tools.

  • go/packages provides a simple interface for loading, parsing, and type checking a complete Go program from source code.

  • go/analysis provides a framework for modular static analysis of Go programs.

  • go/callgraph provides call graphs of Go programs using a variety of algorithms with different trade-offs.

  • go/ast/inspector provides an optimized means of traversing a Go parse tree for use in analysis tools.

  • go/cfg provides a simple control-flow graph (CFG) for a Go function.

  • go/expect reads Go source files used as test inputs and interprets special comments within them as queries or assertions for testing.

  • go/gcexportdata and go/gccgoexportdata read and write the binary files containing type information used by the standard and gccgo compilers.

  • go/types/objectpath provides a stable naming scheme for named entities (“objects”) in the go/types API.

Numerous other packages provide more esoteric functionality.

Contributing

This repository uses Gerrit for code changes. To learn how to submit changes, see https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html.

The main issue tracker for the tools repository is located at https://github.com/golang/go/issues. Prefix your issue with “x/tools/(your subdir):” in the subject line, so it is easy to find.

JavaScript and CSS Formatting

This repository uses prettier to format JS and CSS files.

The version of prettier used is 1.18.2.

It is encouraged that all JS and CSS code be run through this before submitting a change. However, it is not a strict requirement enforced by CI.
