| // Bug opens the default browser and starts a new bug report. |
| // The report includes useful system information. |
| // |
| // |
| // Compile packages and dependencies |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go build [-o output] [build flags] [packages] |
| // |
| // Build compiles the packages named by the import paths, |
| // along with their dependencies, but it does not install the results. |
| // |
| // If the arguments to build are a list of .go files from a single directory, |
| // build treats them as a list of source files specifying a single package. |
| // |
| // When compiling packages, build ignores files that end in '_test.go'. |
| // |
| // When compiling a single main package, build writes |
| // the resulting executable to an output file named after |
| // the first source file ('go build ed.go rx.go' writes 'ed' or 'ed.exe') |
| // or the source code directory ('go build unix/sam' writes 'sam' or 'sam.exe'). |
| // The '.exe' suffix is added when writing a Windows executable. |
| // |
| // When compiling multiple packages or a single non-main package, |
| // build compiles the packages but discards the resulting object, |
| // serving only as a check that the packages can be built. |
| // |
| // The -o flag forces build to write the resulting executable or object |
| // to the named output file or directory, instead of the default behavior described |
| // in the last two paragraphs. If the named output is an existing directory or |
| // ends with a slash or backslash, then any resulting executables |
| // will be written to that directory. |
| // |
| // The -i flag installs the packages that are dependencies of the target. |
| // The -i flag is deprecated. Compiled packages are cached automatically. |
| // |
| // The build flags are shared by the build, clean, get, install, list, run, |
| // and test commands: |
| // |
| // -a |
| // force rebuilding of packages that are already up-to-date. |
| // -n |
| // print the commands but do not run them. |
| // -p n |
| // the number of programs, such as build commands or |
| // test binaries, that can be run in parallel. |
| // The default is the number of CPUs available. |
| // -race |
| // enable data race detection. |
| // Supported only on linux/amd64, freebsd/amd64, darwin/amd64, windows/amd64, |
| // linux/ppc64le and linux/arm64 (only for 48-bit VMA). |
| // -msan |
| // enable interoperation with memory sanitizer. |
| // Supported only on linux/amd64, linux/arm64 |
| // and only with Clang/LLVM as the host C compiler. |
| // On linux/arm64, pie build mode will be used. |
| // -v |
| // print the names of packages as they are compiled. |
| // -work |
| // print the name of the temporary work directory and |
| // do not delete it when exiting. |
| // -x |
| // print the commands. |
| // |
| // -asmflags '[pattern=]arg list' |
| // arguments to pass on each go tool asm invocation. |
| // -buildmode mode |
| // build mode to use. See 'go help buildmode' for more. |
| // -compiler name |
| // name of compiler to use, as in runtime.Compiler (gccgo or gc). |
| // -gccgoflags '[pattern=]arg list' |
| // arguments to pass on each gccgo compiler/linker invocation. |
| // -gcflags '[pattern=]arg list' |
| // arguments to pass on each go tool compile invocation. |
| // -installsuffix suffix |
| // a suffix to use in the name of the package installation directory, |
| // in order to keep output separate from default builds. |
| // If using the -race flag, the install suffix is automatically set to race |
| // or, if set explicitly, has _race appended to it. Likewise for the -msan |
| // flag. Using a -buildmode option that requires non-default compile flags |
| // has a similar effect. |
| // -ldflags '[pattern=]arg list' |
| // arguments to pass on each go tool link invocation. |
| // -linkshared |
| // build code that will be linked against shared libraries previously |
| // created with -buildmode=shared. |
| // -mod mode |
| // module download mode to use: readonly, vendor, or mod. |
| // See 'go help modules' for more. |
| // -modcacherw |
| // leave newly-created directories in the module cache read-write |
| // instead of making them read-only. |
| // -modfile file |
| // in module aware mode, read (and possibly write) an alternate go.mod |
| // file instead of the one in the module root directory. A file named |
| // "go.mod" must still be present in order to determine the module root |
| // directory, but it is not accessed. When -modfile is specified, an |
| // alternate go.sum file is also used: its path is derived from the |
| // -modfile flag by trimming the ".mod" extension and appending ".sum". |
| // -pkgdir dir |
| // install and load all packages from dir instead of the usual locations. |
| // For example, when building with a non-standard configuration, |
| // use -pkgdir to keep generated packages in a separate location. |
| // -tags tag,list |
| // a comma-separated list of build tags to consider satisfied during the |
| // build. For more information about build tags, see the description of |
| // build constraints in the documentation for the go/build package. |
| // (Earlier versions of Go used a space-separated list, and that form |
| // is deprecated but still recognized.) |
| // -trimpath |
| // remove all file system paths from the resulting executable. |
| // Instead of absolute file system paths, the recorded file names |
| // will begin with either "go" (for the standard library), |
| // or a module path@version (when using modules), |
| // or a plain import path (when using GOPATH). |
| // -toolexec 'cmd args' |
| // a program to use to invoke toolchain programs like vet and asm. |
| // For example, instead of running asm, the go command will run |
| // 'cmd args /path/to/asm <arguments for asm>'. |
| // |
| // The -asmflags, -gccgoflags, -gcflags, and -ldflags flags accept a |
| // space-separated list of arguments to pass to an underlying tool |
| // during the build. To embed spaces in an element in the list, surround |
| // it with either single or double quotes. The argument list may be |
| // preceded by a package pattern and an equal sign, which restricts |
| // the use of that argument list to the building of packages matching |
| // that pattern (see 'go help packages' for a description of package |
| // patterns). Without a pattern, the argument list applies only to the |
| // packages named on the command line. The flags may be repeated |
| // with different patterns in order to specify different arguments for |
| // different sets of packages. If a package matches patterns given in |
| // multiple flags, the latest match on the command line wins. |
| // For example, 'go build -gcflags=-S fmt' prints the disassembly |
| // only for package fmt, while 'go build -gcflags=all=-S fmt' |
| // prints the disassembly for fmt and all its dependencies. |
| // |
| // For more about specifying packages, see 'go help packages'. |
| // For more about where packages and binaries are installed, |
| // run 'go help gopath'. |
| // For more about calling between Go and C/C++, run 'go help c'. |
| // |
| // Note: Build adheres to certain conventions such as those described |
| // by 'go help gopath'. Not all projects can follow these conventions, |
| // however. Installations that have their own conventions or that use |
| // a separate software build system may choose to use lower-level |
| // invocations such as 'go tool compile' and 'go tool link' to avoid |
| // some of the overheads and design decisions of the build tool. |
| // |
| // See also: go install, go get, go clean. |
| // |
| // |
| // Remove object files and cached files |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go clean [clean flags] [build flags] [packages] |
| // |
| // Clean removes object files from package source directories. |
| // The go command builds most objects in a temporary directory, |
| // so go clean is mainly concerned with object files left by other |
| // tools or by manual invocations of go build. |
| // |
| // If a package argument is given or the -i or -r flag is set, |
| // clean removes the following files from each of the |
| // source directories corresponding to the import paths: |
| // |
| // _obj/ old object directory, left from Makefiles |
| // _test/ old test directory, left from Makefiles |
| // _testmain.go old gotest file, left from Makefiles |
| // test.out old test log, left from Makefiles |
| // build.out old test log, left from Makefiles |
| // *.[568ao] object files, left from Makefiles |
| // |
| // DIR(.exe) from go build |
| // DIR.test(.exe) from go test -c |
| // MAINFILE(.exe) from go build MAINFILE.go |
| // *.so from SWIG |
| // |
| // In the list, DIR represents the final path element of the |
| // directory, and MAINFILE is the base name of any Go source |
| // file in the directory that is not included when building |
| // the package. |
| // |
| // The -i flag causes clean to remove the corresponding installed |
| // archive or binary (what 'go install' would create). |
| // |
| // The -n flag causes clean to print the remove commands it would execute, |
| // but not run them. |
| // |
| // The -r flag causes clean to be applied recursively to all the |
| // dependencies of the packages named by the import paths. |
| // |
| // The -x flag causes clean to print remove commands as it executes them. |
| // |
| // The -cache flag causes clean to remove the entire go build cache. |
| // |
| // The -testcache flag causes clean to expire all test results in the |
| // go build cache. |
| // |
| // The -modcache flag causes clean to remove the entire module |
| // download cache, including unpacked source code of versioned |
| // dependencies. |
| // |
| // For more about build flags, see 'go help build'. |
| // |
| // For more about specifying packages, see 'go help packages'. |
| // |
| // |
| // Show documentation for package or symbol |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go doc [-u] [-c] [package|[package.]symbol[.methodOrField]] |
| // |
| // Doc prints the documentation comments associated with the item identified by its |
| // arguments (a package, const, func, type, var, method, or struct field) |
| // followed by a one-line summary of each of the first-level items "under" |
| // that item (package-level declarations for a package, methods for a type, |
| // etc.). |
| // |
| // Doc accepts zero, one, or two arguments. |
| // |
| // Given no arguments, that is, when run as |
| // |
| // go doc |
| // |
| // it prints the package documentation for the package in the current directory. |
| // If the package is a command (package main), the exported symbols of the package |
| // are elided from the presentation unless the -cmd flag is provided. |
| // |
| // When run with one argument, the argument is treated as a Go-syntax-like |
| // representation of the item to be documented. What the argument selects depends |
| // on what is installed in GOROOT and GOPATH, as well as the form of the argument, |
| // which is schematically one of these: |
| // |
| // go doc <pkg> |
| // go doc <sym>[.<methodOrField>] |
| // go doc [<pkg>.]<sym>[.<methodOrField>] |
| // go doc [<pkg>.][<sym>.]<methodOrField> |
| // |
| // The first item in this list matched by the argument is the one whose documentation |
| // is printed. (See the examples below.) However, if the argument starts with a capital |
| // letter it is assumed to identify a symbol or method in the current directory. |
| // |
| // For packages, the order of scanning is determined lexically in breadth-first order. |
| // That is, the package presented is the one that matches the search and is nearest |
| // the root and lexically first at its level of the hierarchy. The GOROOT tree is |
| // always scanned in its entirety before GOPATH. |
| // |
| // If there is no package specified or matched, the package in the current |
| // directory is selected, so "go doc Foo" shows the documentation for symbol Foo in |
| // the current package. |
| // |
| // The package path must be either a qualified path or a proper suffix of a |
| // path. The go tool's usual package mechanism does not apply: package path |
| // elements like . and ... are not implemented by go doc. |
| // |
| // When run with two arguments, the first must be a full package path (not just a |
| // suffix), and the second is a symbol, or symbol with method or struct field. |
| // This is similar to the syntax accepted by godoc: |
| // |
| // go doc <pkg> <sym>[.<methodOrField>] |
| // |
| // In all forms, when matching symbols, lower-case letters in the argument match |
| // either case but upper-case letters match exactly. This means that there may be |
| // multiple matches of a lower-case argument in a package if different symbols have |
| // different cases. If this occurs, documentation for all matches is printed. |
| // |
| // Examples: |
| // go doc |
| // Show documentation for current package. |
| // go doc Foo |
| // Show documentation for Foo in the current package. |
| // (Foo starts with a capital letter so it cannot match |
| // a package path.) |
| // go doc encoding/json |
| // Show documentation for the encoding/json package. |
| // go doc json |
| // Shorthand for encoding/json. |
| // go doc json.Number (or go doc json.number) |
| // Show documentation and method summary for json.Number. |
| // go doc json.Number.Int64 (or go doc json.number.int64) |
| // Show documentation for json.Number's Int64 method. |
| // go doc cmd/doc |
| // Show package docs for the doc command. |
| // go doc -cmd cmd/doc |
| // Show package docs and exported symbols within the doc command. |
| // go doc template.new |
| // Show documentation for html/template's New function. |
| // (html/template is lexically before text/template) |
| // go doc text/template.new # One argument |
| // Show documentation for text/template's New function. |
| // go doc text/template new # Two arguments |
| // Show documentation for text/template's New function. |
| // |
| // At least in the current tree, these invocations all print the |
| // documentation for json.Decoder's Decode method: |
| // |
| // go doc json.Decoder.Decode |
| // go doc json.decoder.decode |
| // go doc json.decode |
| // cd go/src/encoding/json; go doc decode |
| // |
| // Flags: |
| // -all |
| // Show all the documentation for the package. |
| // -c |
| // Respect case when matching symbols. |
| // -cmd |
| // Treat a command (package main) like a regular package. |
| // Otherwise package main's exported symbols are hidden |
| // when showing the package's top-level documentation. |
| // -short |
| // One-line representation for each symbol. |
| // -src |
| // Show the full source code for the symbol. This will |
| // display the full Go source of its declaration and |
| // definition, such as a function definition (including |
| // the body), type declaration or enclosing const |
| // block. The output may therefore include unexported |
| // details. |
| // -u |
| // Show documentation for unexported as well as exported |
| // symbols, methods, and fields. |
| // |
| // |
| // Print Go environment information |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go env [-json] [-u] [-w] [var ...] |
| // |
| // Env prints Go environment information. |
| // |
| // By default env prints information as a shell script |
| // (on Windows, a batch file). If one or more variable |
| // names is given as arguments, env prints the value of |
| // each named variable on its own line. |
| // |
| // The -json flag prints the environment in JSON format |
| // instead of as a shell script. |
| // |
| // The -u flag requires one or more arguments and unsets |
| // the default setting for the named environment variables, |
| // if one has been set with 'go env -w'. |
| // |
| // The -w flag requires one or more arguments of the |
| // form NAME=VALUE and changes the default settings |
| // of the named environment variables to the given values. |
| // |
| // For more about environment variables, see 'go help environment'. |
| // |
| // |
| // Update packages to use new APIs |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go fix [packages] |
| // |
| // Fix runs the Go fix command on the packages named by the import paths. |
| // |
| // For more about fix, see 'go doc cmd/fix'. |
| // For more about specifying packages, see 'go help packages'. |
| // |
| // To run fix with specific options, run 'go tool fix'. |
| // |
| // See also: go fmt, go vet. |
| // |
| // |
| // Gofmt (reformat) package sources |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go fmt [-n] [-x] [packages] |
| // |
| // Fmt runs the command 'gofmt -l -w' on the packages named |
| // by the import paths. It prints the names of the files that are modified. |
| // |
| // For more about gofmt, see 'go doc cmd/gofmt'. |
| // For more about specifying packages, see 'go help packages'. |
| // |
| // The -n flag prints commands that would be executed. |
| // The -x flag prints commands as they are executed. |
| // |
| // The -mod flag's value sets which module download mode |
| // to use: readonly or vendor. See 'go help modules' for more. |
| // |
| // To run gofmt with specific options, run gofmt itself. |
| // |
| // See also: go fix, go vet. |
| // |
| // |
| // Generate Go files by processing source |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go generate [-run regexp] [-n] [-v] [-x] [build flags] [file.go... | packages] |
| // |
| // Generate runs commands described by directives within existing |
| // files. Those commands can run any process but the intent is to |
| // create or update Go source files. |
| // |
| // Go generate is never run automatically by go build, go get, go test, |
| // and so on. It must be run explicitly. |
| // |
| // Go generate scans the file for directives, which are lines of |
| // the form, |
| // |
| // //go:generate command argument... |
| // |
| // (note: no leading spaces and no space in "//go") where command |
| // is the generator to be run, corresponding to an executable file |
| // that can be run locally. It must either be in the shell path |
| // (gofmt), a fully qualified path (/usr/you/bin/mytool), or a |
| // command alias, described below. |
| // |
| // To convey to humans and machine tools that code is generated, |
| // generated source should have a line that matches the following |
| // regular expression (in Go syntax): |
| // |
| // ^// Code generated .* DO NOT EDIT\.$ |
| // |
| // The line may appear anywhere in the file, but is typically |
| // placed near the beginning so it is easy to find. |
| // |
| // Note that go generate does not parse the file, so lines that look |
| // like directives in comments or multiline strings will be treated |
| // as directives. |
| // |
| // The arguments to the directive are space-separated tokens or |
| // double-quoted strings passed to the generator as individual |
| // arguments when it is run. |
| // |
| // Quoted strings use Go syntax and are evaluated before execution; a |
| // quoted string appears as a single argument to the generator. |
| // |
| // Go generate sets several variables when it runs the generator: |
| // |
| // $GOARCH |
| // The execution architecture (arm, amd64, etc.) |
| // $GOOS |
| // The execution operating system (linux, windows, etc.) |
| // $GOFILE |
| // The base name of the file. |
| // $GOLINE |
| // The line number of the directive in the source file. |
| // $GOPACKAGE |
| // The name of the package of the file containing the directive. |
| // $DOLLAR |
| // A dollar sign. |
| // |
| // Other than variable substitution and quoted-string evaluation, no |
| // special processing such as "globbing" is performed on the command |
| // line. |
| // |
| // As a last step before running the command, any invocations of any |
| // environment variables with alphanumeric names, such as $GOFILE or |
| // $HOME, are expanded throughout the command line. The syntax for |
| // variable expansion is $NAME on all operating systems. Due to the |
| // order of evaluation, variables are expanded even inside quoted |
| // strings. If the variable NAME is not set, $NAME expands to the |
| // empty string. |
| // |
| // A directive of the form, |
| // |
| // //go:generate -command xxx args... |
| // |
| // specifies, for the remainder of this source file only, that the |
| // string xxx represents the command identified by the arguments. This |
| // can be used to create aliases or to handle multiword generators. |
| // For example, |
| // |
| // //go:generate -command foo go tool foo |
| // |
| // specifies that the command "foo" represents the generator |
| // "go tool foo". |
| // |
| // Generate processes packages in the order given on the command line, |
| // one at a time. If the command line lists .go files from a single directory, |
| // they are treated as a single package. Within a package, generate processes the |
| // source files in a package in file name order, one at a time. Within |
| // a source file, generate runs generators in the order they appear |
| // in the file, one at a time. The go generate tool also sets the build |
| // tag "generate" so that files may be examined by go generate but ignored |
| // during build. |
| // |
| // For packages with invalid code, generate processes only source files with a |
| // valid package clause. |
| // |
| // If any generator returns an error exit status, "go generate" skips |
| // all further processing for that package. |
| // |
| // The generator is run in the package's source directory. |
| // |
| // Go generate accepts one specific flag: |
| // |
| // -run="" |
| // if non-empty, specifies a regular expression to select |
| // directives whose full original source text (excluding |
| // any trailing spaces and final newline) matches the |
| // expression. |
| // |
| // It also accepts the standard build flags including -v, -n, and -x. |
| // The -v flag prints the names of packages and files as they are |
| // processed. |
| // The -n flag prints commands that would be executed. |
| // The -x flag prints commands as they are executed. |
| // |
| // For more about build flags, see 'go help build'. |
| // |
| // For more about specifying packages, see 'go help packages'. |
| // |
| // |
| // Add dependencies to current module and install them |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go get [-d] [-t] [-u] [-v] [-insecure] [build flags] [packages] |
| // |
| // Get resolves and adds dependencies to the current development module |
| // and then builds and installs them. |
| // |
| // The first step is to resolve which dependencies to add. |
| // |
| // For each named package or package pattern, get must decide which version of |
| // the corresponding module to use. By default, get looks up the latest tagged |
| // release version, such as v0.4.5 or v1.2.3. If there are no tagged release |
| // versions, get looks up the latest tagged pre-release version, such as |
| // v0.0.1-pre1. If there are no tagged versions at all, get looks up the latest |
| // known commit. If the module is not already required at a later version |
| // (for example, a pre-release newer than the latest release), get will use |
| // the version it looked up. Otherwise, get will use the currently |
| // required version. |
| // |
| // This default version selection can be overridden by adding an @version |
| // suffix to the package argument, as in 'go get golang.org/x/text@v0.3.0'. |
| // The version may be a prefix: @v1 denotes the latest available version starting |
| // with v1. See 'go help modules' under the heading 'Module queries' for the |
| // full query syntax. |
| // |
| // For modules stored in source control repositories, the version suffix can |
| // also be a commit hash, branch identifier, or other syntax known to the |
| // source control system, as in 'go get golang.org/x/text@master'. Note that |
| // branches with names that overlap with other module query syntax cannot be |
| // selected explicitly. For example, the suffix @v2 means the latest version |
| // starting with v2, not the branch named v2. |
| // |
| // If a module under consideration is already a dependency of the current |
| // development module, then get will update the required version. |
| // Specifying a version earlier than the current required version is valid and |
| // downgrades the dependency. The version suffix @none indicates that the |
| // dependency should be removed entirely, downgrading or removing modules |
| // depending on it as needed. |
| // |
| // The version suffix @latest explicitly requests the latest minor release of |
| // the module named by the given path. The suffix @upgrade is like @latest but |
| // will not downgrade a module if it is already required at a revision or |
| // pre-release version newer than the latest released version. The suffix |
| // @patch requests the latest patch release: the latest released version |
| // with the same major and minor version numbers as the currently required |
| // version. Like @upgrade, @patch will not downgrade a module already required |
| // at a newer version. If the path is not already required, @upgrade is |
| // equivalent to @latest, and @patch is disallowed. |
| // |
| // Although get defaults to using the latest version of the module containing |
| // a named package, it does not use the latest version of that module's |
| // dependencies. Instead it prefers to use the specific dependency versions |
| // requested by that module. For example, if the latest A requires module |
| // B v1.2.3, while B v1.2.4 and v1.3.1 are also available, then 'go get A' |
| // will use the latest A but then use B v1.2.3, as requested by A. (If there |
| // are competing requirements for a particular module, then 'go get' resolves |
| // those requirements by taking the maximum requested version.) |
| // |
| // The -t flag instructs get to consider modules needed to build tests of |
| // packages specified on the command line. |
| // |
| // The -u flag instructs get to update modules providing dependencies |
| // of packages named on the command line to use newer minor or patch |
| // releases when available. Continuing the previous example, 'go get -u A' |
| // will use the latest A with B v1.3.1 (not B v1.2.3). If B requires module C, |
| // but C does not provide any packages needed to build packages in A |
| // (not including tests), then C will not be updated. |
| // |
| // The -u=patch flag (not -u patch) also instructs get to update dependencies, |
| // but changes the default to select patch releases. |
| // Continuing the previous example, |
| // 'go get -u=patch A@latest' will use the latest A with B v1.2.4 (not B v1.2.3), |
| // while 'go get -u=patch A' will use a patch release of A instead. |
| // |
| // When the -t and -u flags are used together, get will update |
| // test dependencies as well. |
| // |
| // In general, adding a new dependency may require upgrading |
| // existing dependencies to keep a working build, and 'go get' does |
| // this automatically. Similarly, downgrading one dependency may |
| // require downgrading other dependencies, and 'go get' does |
| // this automatically as well. |
| // |
| // The -insecure flag permits fetching from repositories and resolving |
| // custom domains using insecure schemes such as HTTP, and also bypassess |
| // module sum validation using the checksum database. Use with caution. |
| // This flag is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of go. |
| // To permit the use of insecure schemes, use the GOINSECURE environment |
| // variable instead. To bypass module sum validation, use GOPRIVATE or |
| // GONOSUMDB. See 'go help environment' for details. |
| // |
| // The second step is to download (if needed), build, and install |
| // the named packages. |
| // |
| // The -d flag instructs get to skip this step, downloading source code |
| // needed to build the named packages and their dependencies, but not |
| // building or installing. |
| // |
| // Building and installing packages with get is deprecated. In a future release, |
| // the -d flag will be enabled by default, and 'go get' will be only be used to |
| // adjust dependencies of the current module. To install a package using |
| // dependencies from the current module, use 'go install'. To install a package |
| // ignoring the current module, use 'go install' with an @version suffix like |
| // "@latest" after each argument. |
| // |
| // If an argument names a module but not a package (because there is no |
| // Go source code in the module's root directory), then the install step |
| // is skipped for that argument, instead of causing a build failure. |
| // For example 'go get golang.org/x/perf' succeeds even though there |
| // is no code corresponding to that import path. |
| // |
| // Note that package patterns are allowed and are expanded after resolving |
| // the module versions. For example, 'go get golang.org/x/perf/cmd/...' |
| // adds the latest golang.org/x/perf and then installs the commands in that |
| // latest version. |
| // |
| // With no package arguments, 'go get' applies to Go package in the |
| // current directory, if any. In particular, 'go get -u' and |
| // 'go get -u=patch' update all the dependencies of that package. |
| // With no package arguments and also without -u, 'go get' is not much more |
| // than 'go install', and 'go get -d' not much more than 'go list'. |
| // |
| // For more about modules, see 'go help modules'. |
| // |
| // For more about specifying packages, see 'go help packages'. |
| // |
| // This text describes the behavior of get using modules to manage source |
| // code and dependencies. If instead the go command is running in GOPATH |
| // mode, the details of get's flags and effects change, as does 'go help get'. |
| // See 'go help modules' and 'go help gopath-get'. |
| // |
| // See also: go build, go install, go clean, go mod. |
| // |
| // |
| // Compile and install packages and dependencies |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go install [build flags] [packages] |
| // |
| // Install compiles and installs the packages named by the import paths. |
| // |
| // Executables are installed in the directory named by the GOBIN environment |
| // variable, which defaults to $GOPATH/bin or $HOME/go/bin if the GOPATH |
| // environment variable is not set. Executables in $GOROOT |
| // are installed in $GOROOT/bin or $GOTOOLDIR instead of $GOBIN. |
| // |
| // If the arguments have version suffixes (like @latest or @v1.0.0), "go install" |
| // builds packages in module-aware mode, ignoring the go.mod file in the current |
| // directory or any parent directory, if there is one. This is useful for |
| // installing executables without affecting the dependencies of the main module. |
| // To eliminate ambiguity about which module versions are used in the build, the |
| // arguments must satisfy the following constraints: |
| // |
| // - Arguments must be package paths or package patterns (with "..." wildcards). |
| // They must not be standard packages (like fmt), meta-patterns (std, cmd, |
| // all), or relative or absolute file paths. |
| // - All arguments must have the same version suffix. Different queries are not |
| // allowed, even if they refer to the same version. |
| // - All arguments must refer to packages in the same module at the same version. |
| // - No module is considered the "main" module. If the module containing |
| // packages named on the command line has a go.mod file, it must not contain |
| // directives (replace and exclude) that would cause it to be interpreted |
| // differently than if it were the main module. The module must not require |
| // a higher version of itself. |
| // - Package path arguments must refer to main packages. Pattern arguments |
| // will only match main packages. |
| // |
| // If the arguments don't have version suffixes, "go install" may run in |
| // module-aware mode or GOPATH mode, depending on the GO111MODULE environment |
| // variable and the presence of a go.mod file. See 'go help modules' for details. |
| // If module-aware mode is enabled, "go install" runs in the context of the main |
| // module. |
| // |
| // When module-aware mode is disabled, other packages are installed in the |
| // directory $GOPATH/pkg/$GOOS_$GOARCH. When module-aware mode is enabled, |
| // other packages are built and cached but not installed. |
| // |
| // The -i flag installs the dependencies of the named packages as well. |
| // The -i flag is deprecated. Compiled packages are cached automatically. |
| // |
| // For more about the build flags, see 'go help build'. |
| // For more about specifying packages, see 'go help packages'. |
| // |
| // See also: go build, go get, go clean. |
| // |
| // |
| // List packages or modules |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go list [-f format] [-json] [-m] [list flags] [build flags] [packages] |
| // |
| // List lists the named packages, one per line. |
| // The most commonly-used flags are -f and -json, which control the form |
| // of the output printed for each package. Other list flags, documented below, |
| // control more specific details. |
| // |
| // The default output shows the package import path: |
| // |
| // bytes |
| // encoding/json |
| // github.com/gorilla/mux |
| // golang.org/x/net/html |
| // |
| // The -f flag specifies an alternate format for the list, using the |
| // syntax of package template. The default output is equivalent |
| // to -f '{{.ImportPath}}'. The struct being passed to the template is: |
| // |
| // type Package struct { |
| // Dir string // directory containing package sources |
| // ImportPath string // import path of package in dir |
| // ImportComment string // path in import comment on package statement |
| // Name string // package name |
| // Doc string // package documentation string |
| // Target string // install path |
| // Shlib string // the shared library that contains this package (only set when -linkshared) |
| // Goroot bool // is this package in the Go root? |
| // Standard bool // is this package part of the standard Go library? |
| // Stale bool // would 'go install' do anything for this package? |
| // StaleReason string // explanation for Stale==true |
| // Root string // Go root or Go path dir containing this package |
| // ConflictDir string // this directory shadows Dir in $GOPATH |
| // BinaryOnly bool // binary-only package (no longer supported) |
| // ForTest string // package is only for use in named test |
| // Export string // file containing export data (when using -export) |
| // BuildID string // build ID of the compiled package (when using -export) |
| // Module *Module // info about package's containing module, if any (can be nil) |
| // Match []string // command-line patterns matching this package |
| // DepOnly bool // package is only a dependency, not explicitly listed |
| // |
| // // Source files |
| // GoFiles []string // .go source files (excluding CgoFiles, TestGoFiles, XTestGoFiles) |
| // CgoFiles []string // .go source files that import "C" |
| // CompiledGoFiles []string // .go files presented to compiler (when using -compiled) |
| // IgnoredGoFiles []string // .go source files ignored due to build constraints |
| // IgnoredOtherFiles []string // non-.go source files ignored due to build constraints |
| // CFiles []string // .c source files |
| // CXXFiles []string // .cc, .cxx and .cpp source files |
| // MFiles []string // .m source files |
| // HFiles []string // .h, .hh, .hpp and .hxx source files |
| // FFiles []string // .f, .F, .for and .f90 Fortran source files |
| // SFiles []string // .s source files |

| // TestGoFiles []string // _test.go files in package |
| // XTestGoFiles []string // _test.go files outside package |
| // |
| // // Cgo directives |
| // CgoCFLAGS []string // cgo: flags for C compiler |

| // CgoPkgConfig []string // cgo: pkg-config names |
| // |
| // // Dependency information |
| // Imports []string // import paths used by this package |
| // ImportMap map[string]string // map from source import to ImportPath (identity entries omitted) |
| // Deps []string // all (recursively) imported dependencies |
| // TestImports []string // imports from TestGoFiles |
| // XTestImports []string // imports from XTestGoFiles |
| // |
| // // Error information |
| // Incomplete bool // this package or a dependency has an error |
| // Error *PackageError // error loading package |
| // DepsErrors []*PackageError // errors loading dependencies |
| // } |
| // |
| // Packages stored in vendor directories report an ImportPath that includes the |
| // path to the vendor directory (for example, "d/vendor/p" instead of "p"), |
| // so that the ImportPath uniquely identifies a given copy of a package. |
| // The Imports, Deps, TestImports, and XTestImports lists also contain these |
| // expanded import paths. See golang.org/s/go15vendor for more about vendoring. |
| // |
| // The error information, if any, is |
| // |
| // type PackageError struct { |
| // ImportStack []string // shortest path from package named on command line to this one |
| // Pos string // position of error (if present, file:line:col) |
| // Err string // the error itself |
| // } |
| // |
| // The module information is a Module struct, defined in the discussion |
| // of list -m below. |
| // |
| // The template function "join" calls strings.Join. |
| // |
| // The template function "context" returns the build context, defined as: |
| // |
| // type Context struct { |
| // GOARCH string // target architecture |
| // GOOS string // target operating system |
| // GOROOT string // Go root |
| // GOPATH string // Go path |
| // CgoEnabled bool // whether cgo can be used |
| // UseAllFiles bool // use files regardless of +build lines, file names |
| // Compiler string // compiler to assume when computing target paths |
| // BuildTags []string // build constraints to match in +build lines |
| // ReleaseTags []string // releases the current release is compatible with |
| // InstallSuffix string // suffix to use in the name of the install dir |
| // } |
| // |
| // For more information about the meaning of these fields see the documentation |
| // for the go/build package's Context type. |
| // |
| // The -json flag causes the package data to be printed in JSON format |
| // instead of using the template format. |
| // |
| // The -compiled flag causes list to set CompiledGoFiles to the Go source |
| // files presented to the compiler. Typically this means that it repeats |
| // the files listed in GoFiles and then also adds the Go code generated |
| // by processing CgoFiles and SwigFiles. The Imports list contains the |
| // union of all imports from both GoFiles and CompiledGoFiles. |
| // |
| // The -deps flag causes list to iterate over not just the named packages |
| // but also all their dependencies. It visits them in a depth-first post-order |
| // traversal, so that a package is listed only after all its dependencies. |
| // Packages not explicitly listed on the command line will have the DepOnly |
| // field set to true. |
| // |
| // The -e flag changes the handling of erroneous packages, those that |
| // cannot be found or are malformed. By default, the list command |
| // prints an error to standard error for each erroneous package and |
| // omits the packages from consideration during the usual printing. |
| // With the -e flag, the list command never prints errors to standard |
| // error and instead processes the erroneous packages with the usual |
| // printing. Erroneous packages will have a non-empty ImportPath and |
| // a non-nil Error field; other information may or may not be missing |
| // (zeroed). |
| // |
| // The -export flag causes list to set the Export field to the name of a |
| // file containing up-to-date export information for the given package. |
| // |
| // The -find flag causes list to identify the named packages but not |
| // resolve their dependencies: the Imports and Deps lists will be empty. |
| // |
| // The -test flag causes list to report not only the named packages |
| // but also their test binaries (for packages with tests), to convey to |
| // source code analysis tools exactly how test binaries are constructed. |
| // The reported import path for a test binary is the import path of |
| // the package followed by a ".test" suffix, as in "math/rand.test". |
| // When building a test, it is sometimes necessary to rebuild certain |
| // dependencies specially for that test (most commonly the tested |
| // package itself). The reported import path of a package recompiled |
| // for a particular test binary is followed by a space and the name of |
| // the test binary in brackets, as in "math/rand [math/rand.test]" |
| // or "regexp [sort.test]". The ForTest field is also set to the name |
| // of the package being tested ("math/rand" or "sort" in the previous |
| // examples). |
| // |
| // The Dir, Target, Shlib, Root, ConflictDir, and Export file paths |
| // are all absolute paths. |
| // |
| // By default, the lists GoFiles, CgoFiles, and so on hold names of files in Dir |
| // (that is, paths relative to Dir, not absolute paths). |
| // The generated files added when using the -compiled and -test flags |
| // are absolute paths referring to cached copies of generated Go source files. |
| // Although they are Go source files, the paths may not end in ".go". |
| // |
| // The -m flag causes list to list modules instead of packages. |
| // |
| // When listing modules, the -f flag still specifies a format template |
| // applied to a Go struct, but now a Module struct: |
| // |
| // type Module struct { |
| // Path string // module path |
| // Version string // module version |
| // Versions []string // available module versions (with -versions) |
| // Replace *Module // replaced by this module |
| // Time *time.Time // time version was created |
| // Update *Module // available update, if any (with -u) |
| // Main bool // is this the main module? |
| // Indirect bool // is this module only an indirect dependency of main module? |
| // Dir string // directory holding files for this module, if any |
| // GoMod string // path to go.mod file used when loading this module, if any |
| // GoVersion string // go version used in module |
| // Retracted string // retraction information, if any (with -retracted or -u) |
| // Error *ModuleError // error loading module |
| // } |
| // |
| // type ModuleError struct { |
| // Err string // the error itself |
| // } |
| // |
| // The file GoMod refers to may be outside the module directory if the |
| // module is in the module cache or if the -modfile flag is used. |
| // |
| // The default output is to print the module path and then |
| // information about the version and replacement if any. |
| // For example, 'go list -m all' might print: |
| // |
| // my/main/module |
| // golang.org/x/text v0.3.0 => /tmp/text |
| // rsc.io/pdf v0.1.1 |
| // |
| // The Module struct has a String method that formats this |
| // line of output, so that the default format is equivalent |
| // to -f '{{.String}}'. |
| // |
| // Note that when a module has been replaced, its Replace field |
| // describes the replacement module, and its Dir field is set to |
| // the replacement's source code, if present. (That is, if Replace |
| // is non-nil, then Dir is set to Replace.Dir, with no access to |
| // the replaced source code.) |
| // |
| // The -u flag adds information about available upgrades. |
| // When the latest version of a given module is newer than |
| // the current one, list -u sets the Module's Update field |
| // to information about the newer module. list -u will also set |
| // the module's Retracted field if the current version is retracted. |
| // The Module's String method indicates an available upgrade by |
| // formatting the newer version in brackets after the current version. |
| // If a version is retracted, the string "(retracted)" will follow it. |
| // For example, 'go list -m -u all' might print: |
| // |
| // my/main/module |
| // golang.org/x/text v0.3.0 [v0.4.0] => /tmp/text |
| // rsc.io/pdf v0.1.1 (retracted) [v0.1.2] |
| // |
| // (For tools, 'go list -m -u -json all' may be more convenient to parse.) |
| // |
| // The -versions flag causes list to set the Module's Versions field |
| // to a list of all known versions of that module, ordered according |
| // to semantic versioning, earliest to latest. The flag also changes |
| // the default output format to display the module path followed by the |
| // space-separated version list. |
| // |
| // The -retracted flag causes list to report information about retracted |
| // module versions. When -retracted is used with -f or -json, the Retracted |
| // field will be set to a string explaining why the version was retracted. |
| // The string is taken from comments on the retract directive in the |
| // module's go.mod file. When -retracted is used with -versions, retracted |
| // versions are listed together with unretracted versions. The -retracted |
| // flag may be used with or without -m. |
| // |
| // The arguments to list -m are interpreted as a list of modules, not packages. |
| // The main module is the module containing the current directory. |
| // The active modules are the main module and its dependencies. |
| // With no arguments, list -m shows the main module. |
| // With arguments, list -m shows the modules specified by the arguments. |
| // Any of the active modules can be specified by its module path. |
| // The special pattern "all" specifies all the active modules, first the main |
| // module and then dependencies sorted by module path. |
| // A pattern containing "..." specifies the active modules whose |
| // module paths match the pattern. |
| // A query of the form path@version specifies the result of that query, |
| // which is not limited to active modules. |
| // See 'go help modules' for more about module queries. |
| // |
| // The template function "module" takes a single string argument |
| // that must be a module path or query and returns the specified |
| // module as a Module struct. If an error occurs, the result will |
| // be a Module struct with a non-nil Error field. |
| // |

| // |
| // Module maintenance |
| // |
| // Go mod provides access to operations on modules. |
| // |
| // Note that support for modules is built into all the go commands, |
| // not just 'go mod'. For example, day-to-day adding, removing, upgrading, |
| // and downgrading of dependencies should be done using 'go get'. |
| // See 'go help modules' for an overview of module functionality. |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go mod <command> [arguments] |
| // |
| // The commands are: |
| // |
| // download download modules to local cache |
| // edit edit go.mod from tools or scripts |
| // graph print module requirement graph |
| // init initialize new module in current directory |
| // tidy add missing and remove unused modules |
| // vendor make vendored copy of dependencies |
| // verify verify dependencies have expected content |
| // why explain why packages or modules are needed |
| // |
| // Use "go help mod <command>" for more information about a command. |
| // |
| // Download modules to local cache |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go mod download [-x] [-json] [modules] |
| // |
| // Download downloads the named modules, which can be module patterns selecting |
| // dependencies of the main module or module queries of the form path@version. |
| // With no arguments, download applies to all dependencies of the main module |
| // (equivalent to 'go mod download all'). |
| // |
| // The go command will automatically download modules as needed during ordinary |
| // execution. The "go mod download" command is useful mainly for pre-filling |
| // the local cache or to compute the answers for a Go module proxy. |
| // |
| // By default, download writes nothing to standard output. It may print progress |
| // messages and errors to standard error. |
| // |
| // The -json flag causes download to print a sequence of JSON objects |
| // to standard output, describing each downloaded module (or failure), |
| // corresponding to this Go struct: |
| // |
| // type Module struct { |
| // Path string // module path |
| // Version string // module version |
| // Error string // error loading module |
| // Info string // absolute path to cached .info file |
| // GoMod string // absolute path to cached .mod file |
| // Zip string // absolute path to cached .zip file |
| // Dir string // absolute path to cached source root directory |
| // Sum string // checksum for path, version (as in go.sum) |
| // GoModSum string // checksum for go.mod (as in go.sum) |
| // } |
| // |
| // The -x flag causes download to print the commands download executes. |
| // |
| // See 'go help modules' for more about module queries. |
| // |
| // |
| // Edit go.mod from tools or scripts |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go mod edit [editing flags] [go.mod] |
| // |
| // Edit provides a command-line interface for editing go.mod, |
| // for use primarily by tools or scripts. It reads only go.mod; |
| // it does not look up information about the modules involved. |
| // By default, edit reads and writes the go.mod file of the main module, |
| // but a different target file can be specified after the editing flags. |
| // |
| // The editing flags specify a sequence of editing operations. |
| // |
| // The -fmt flag reformats the go.mod file without making other changes. |
| // This reformatting is also implied by any other modifications that use or |
| // rewrite the go.mod file. The only time this flag is needed is if no other |
| // flags are specified, as in 'go mod edit -fmt'. |
| // |
| // The -module flag changes the module's path (the go.mod file's module line). |
| // |
| // The -require=path@version and -droprequire=path flags |
| // add and drop a requirement on the given module path and version. |
| // Note that -require overrides any existing requirements on path. |
| // These flags are mainly for tools that understand the module graph. |
| // Users should prefer 'go get path@version' or 'go get path@none', |
| // which make other go.mod adjustments as needed to satisfy |
| // constraints imposed by other modules. |
| // |
| // The -exclude=path@version and -dropexclude=path@version flags |
| // add and drop an exclusion for the given module path and version. |
| // Note that -exclude=path@version is a no-op if that exclusion already exists. |
| // |
| // The -replace=old[@v]=new[@v] flag adds a replacement of the given |
| // module path and version pair. If the @v in old@v is omitted, a |
| // replacement without a version on the left side is added, which applies |
| // to all versions of the old module path. If the @v in new@v is omitted, |
| // the new path should be a local module root directory, not a module |
| // path. Note that -replace overrides any redundant replacements for old[@v], |
| // so omitting @v will drop existing replacements for specific versions. |
| // |
| // The -dropreplace=old[@v] flag drops a replacement of the given |
| // module path and version pair. If the @v is omitted, a replacement without |
| // a version on the left side is dropped. |
| // |
| // The -retract=version and -dropretract=version flags add and drop a |
| // retraction on the given version. The version may be a single version |
| // like "v1.2.3" or a closed interval like "[v1.1.0-v1.1.9]". Note that |
| // -retract=version is a no-op if that retraction already exists. |
| // |
| // The -require, -droprequire, -exclude, -dropexclude, -replace, |
| // -dropreplace, -retract, and -dropretract editing flags may be repeated, |
| // and the changes are applied in the order given. |
| // |
| // The -go=version flag sets the expected Go language version. |
| // |
| // The -print flag prints the final go.mod in its text format instead of |
| // writing it back to go.mod. |
| // |
| // The -json flag prints the final go.mod file in JSON format instead of |
| // writing it back to go.mod. The JSON output corresponds to these Go types: |
| // |
| // type Module struct { |
| // Path string |
| // Version string |
| // } |
| // |
| // type GoMod struct { |
| // Module Module |
| // Go string |
| // Require []Require |
| // Exclude []Module |
| // Replace []Replace |
| // } |
| // |
| // type Require struct { |
| // Path string |
| // Version string |
| // Indirect bool |
| // } |
| // |
| // type Replace struct { |
| // Old Module |
| // New Module |
| // } |
| // |
| // type Retract struct { |
| // Low string |
| // High string |
| // Rationale string |
| // } |
| // |
| // Retract entries representing a single version (not an interval) will have |
| // the "Low" and "High" fields set to the same value. |
| // |
| // Note that this only describes the go.mod file itself, not other modules |
| // referred to indirectly. For the full set of modules available to a build, |
| // use 'go list -m -json all'. |
| // |
| // For example, a tool can obtain the go.mod as a data structure by |
| // parsing the output of 'go mod edit -json' and can then make changes |
| // by invoking 'go mod edit' with -require, -exclude, and so on. |
| // |
| // |
| // Print module requirement graph |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go mod graph |
| // |
| // Graph prints the module requirement graph (with replacements applied) |
| // in text form. Each line in the output has two space-separated fields: a module |
| // and one of its requirements. Each module is identified as a string of the form |
| // path@version, except for the main module, which has no @version suffix. |
| // |
| // |
| // Initialize new module in current directory |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go mod init [module] |
| // |
| // Init initializes and writes a new go.mod to the current directory, |
| // in effect creating a new module rooted at the current directory. |
| // The file go.mod must not already exist. |
| // If possible, init will guess the module path from import comments |
| // (see 'go help importpath') or from version control configuration. |
| // To override this guess, supply the module path as an argument. |
| // |
| // |
| // Add missing and remove unused modules |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go mod tidy [-e] [-v] |
| // |
| // Tidy makes sure go.mod matches the source code in the module. |
| // It adds any missing modules necessary to build the current module's |
| // packages and dependencies, and it removes unused modules that |
| // don't provide any relevant packages. It also adds any missing entries |
| // to go.sum and removes any unnecessary ones. |
| // |
| // The -v flag causes tidy to print information about removed modules |
| // to standard error. |
| // |
| // The -e flag causes tidy to attempt to proceed despite errors |
| // encountered while loading packages. |
| // |
| // |
| // Make vendored copy of dependencies |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go mod vendor [-e] [-v] |
| // |
| // Vendor resets the main module's vendor directory to include all packages |
| // needed to build and test all the main module's packages. |
| // It does not include test code for vendored packages. |
| // |
| // The -v flag causes vendor to print the names of vendored |
| // modules and packages to standard error. |
| // |
| // The -e flag causes vendor to attempt to proceed despite errors |
| // encountered while loading packages. |
| // |
| // |
| // Verify dependencies have expected content |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go mod verify |
| // |
| // Verify checks that the dependencies of the current module, |
| // which are stored in a local downloaded source cache, have not been |
| // modified since being downloaded. If all the modules are unmodified, |
| // verify prints "all modules verified." Otherwise it reports which |
| // modules have been changed and causes 'go mod' to exit with a |
| // non-zero status. |
| // |
| // |
| // Explain why packages or modules are needed |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go mod why [-m] [-vendor] packages... |
| // |
| // Why shows a shortest path in the import graph from the main module to |
| // each of the listed packages. If the -m flag is given, why treats the |
| // arguments as a list of modules and finds a path to any package in each |
| // of the modules. |
| // |
| // By default, why queries the graph of packages matched by "go list all", |
| // which includes tests for reachable packages. The -vendor flag causes why |
| // to exclude tests of dependencies. |
| // |
| // The output is a sequence of stanzas, one for each package or module |
| // name on the command line, separated by blank lines. Each stanza begins |
| // with a comment line "# package" or "# module" giving the target |
| // package or module. Subsequent lines give a path through the import |
| // graph, one package per line. If the package or module is not |
| // referenced from the main module, the stanza will display a single |
| // parenthesized note indicating that fact. |
| // |
| // For example: |
| // |
| // $ go mod why golang.org/x/text/language golang.org/x/text/encoding |
| // # golang.org/x/text/language |
| // rsc.io/quote |
| // rsc.io/sampler |
| // golang.org/x/text/language |
| // |
| // # golang.org/x/text/encoding |
| // (main module does not need package golang.org/x/text/encoding) |
| // $ |
| // |
| // |
| // Compile and run Go program |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go run [build flags] [-exec xprog] package [arguments...] |
| // |
| // Run compiles and runs the named main Go package. |
| // Typically the package is specified as a list of .go source files from a single directory, |
| // but it may also be an import path, file system path, or pattern |
| // matching a single known package, as in 'go run .' or 'go run my/cmd'. |
| // |
| // By default, 'go run' runs the compiled binary directly: 'a.out arguments...'. |
| // If the -exec flag is given, 'go run' invokes the binary using xprog: |
| // 'xprog a.out arguments...'. |
| // If the -exec flag is not given, GOOS or GOARCH is different from the system |
| // default, and a program named go_$GOOS_$GOARCH_exec can be found |
| // on the current search path, 'go run' invokes the binary using that program, |
| // for example 'go_js_wasm_exec a.out arguments...'. This allows execution of |
| // cross-compiled programs when a simulator or other execution method is |
| // available. |
| // |
| // The exit status of Run is not the exit status of the compiled binary. |
| // |
| // For more about build flags, see 'go help build'. |
| // For more about specifying packages, see 'go help packages'. |
| // |
| // See also: go build. |
| // |
| // |
| // Test packages |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go test [build/test flags] [packages] [build/test flags & test binary flags] |
| // |
| // 'Go test' automates testing the packages named by the import paths. |
| // It prints a summary of the test results in the format: |
| // |
| // ok archive/tar 0.011s |
| // FAIL archive/zip 0.022s |
| // ok compress/gzip 0.033s |
| // ... |
| // |
| // followed by detailed output for each failed package. |
| // |
| // 'Go test' recompiles each package along with any files with names matching |
| // the file pattern "*_test.go". |
| // These additional files can contain test functions, benchmark functions, and |
| // example functions. See 'go help testfunc' for more. |
| // Each listed package causes the execution of a separate test binary. |
| // Files whose names begin with "_" (including "_test.go") or "." are ignored. |
| // |
| // Test files that declare a package with the suffix "_test" will be compiled as a |
| // separate package, and then linked and run with the main test binary. |
| // |
| // The go tool will ignore a directory named "testdata", making it available |
| // to hold ancillary data needed by the tests. |
| // |
| // As part of building a test binary, go test runs go vet on the package |
| // and its test source files to identify significant problems. If go vet |
| // finds any problems, go test reports those and does not run the test |
| // binary. Only a high-confidence subset of the default go vet checks are |
| // used. That subset is: 'atomic', 'bool', 'buildtags', 'errorsas', |
| // 'ifaceassert', 'nilfunc', 'printf', and 'stringintconv'. You can see |
| // the documentation for these and other vet tests via "go doc cmd/vet". |
| // To disable the running of go vet, use the -vet=off flag. |
| // |
| // All test output and summary lines are printed to the go command's |
| // standard output, even if the test printed them to its own standard |
| // error. (The go command's standard error is reserved for printing |
| // errors building the tests.) |
| // |
| // Go test runs in two different modes: |
| // |
| // The first, called local directory mode, occurs when go test is |
| // invoked with no package arguments (for example, 'go test' or 'go |
| // test -v'). In this mode, go test compiles the package sources and |
| // tests found in the current directory and then runs the resulting |
| // test binary. In this mode, caching (discussed below) is disabled. |
| // After the package test finishes, go test prints a summary line |
| // showing the test status ('ok' or 'FAIL'), package name, and elapsed |
| // time. |
| // |
| // The second, called package list mode, occurs when go test is invoked |
| // with explicit package arguments (for example 'go test math', 'go |
| // test ./...', and even 'go test .'). In this mode, go test compiles |
| // and tests each of the packages listed on the command line. If a |
| // package test passes, go test prints only the final 'ok' summary |
| // line. If a package test fails, go test prints the full test output. |
| // If invoked with the -bench or -v flag, go test prints the full |
| // output even for passing package tests, in order to display the |
| // requested benchmark results or verbose logging. After the package |
| // tests for all of the listed packages finish, and their output is |
| // printed, go test prints a final 'FAIL' status if any package test |
| // has failed. |
| // |
| // In package list mode only, go test caches successful package test |
| // results to avoid unnecessary repeated running of tests. When the |
| // result of a test can be recovered from the cache, go test will |
| // redisplay the previous output instead of running the test binary |
| // again. When this happens, go test prints '(cached)' in place of the |
| // elapsed time in the summary line. |
| // |
| // The rule for a match in the cache is that the run involves the same |
| // test binary and the flags on the command line come entirely from a |
| // restricted set of 'cacheable' test flags, defined as -cpu, -list, |
| // -parallel, -run, -short, and -v. If a run of go test has any test |
| // or non-test flags outside this set, the result is not cached. To |
| // disable test caching, use any test flag or argument other than the |
| // cacheable flags. The idiomatic way to disable test caching explicitly |
| // is to use -count=1. Tests that open files within the package's source |
| // root (usually $GOPATH) or that consult environment variables only |
| // match future runs in which the files and environment variables are unchanged. |
| // A cached test result is treated as executing in no time at all, |
| // so a successful package test result will be cached and reused |
| // regardless of -timeout setting. |
| // |
| // In addition to the build flags, the flags handled by 'go test' itself are: |
| // |
| // -args |
| // Pass the remainder of the command line (everything after -args) |
| // to the test binary, uninterpreted and unchanged. |
| // Because this flag consumes the remainder of the command line, |
| // the package list (if present) must appear before this flag. |
| // |
| // -c |
| // Compile the test binary to pkg.test but do not run it |
| // (where pkg is the last element of the package's import path). |
| // The file name can be changed with the -o flag. |
| // |
| // -exec xprog |
| // Run the test binary using xprog. The behavior is the same as |
| // in 'go run'. See 'go help run' for details. |
| // |
| // -i |
| // Install packages that are dependencies of the test. |
| // Do not run the test. |
| // The -i flag is deprecated. Compiled packages are cached automatically. |
| // |
| // -json |
| // Convert test output to JSON suitable for automated processing. |
| // See 'go doc test2json' for the encoding details. |
| // |
| // -o file |
| // Compile the test binary to the named file. |
| // The test still runs (unless -c or -i is specified). |
| // |
| // The test binary also accepts flags that control execution of the test; these |
| // flags are also accessible by 'go test'. See 'go help testflag' for details. |
| // |
| // For more about build flags, see 'go help build'. |
| // For more about specifying packages, see 'go help packages'. |
| // |
| // See also: go build, go vet. |
| // |
| // |
| // Run specified go tool |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go tool [-n] command [args...] |
| // |
| // Tool runs the go tool command identified by the arguments. |
| // With no arguments it prints the list of known tools. |
| // |
| // The -n flag causes tool to print the command that would be |
| // executed but not execute it. |
| // |
| // For more about each tool command, see 'go doc cmd/<command>'. |
| // |
| // |
| // Print Go version |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go version [-m] [-v] [file ...] |
| // |
| // Version prints the build information for Go executables. |
| // |
| // Go version reports the Go version used to build each of the named |
| // executable files. |
| // |
| // If no files are named on the command line, go version prints its own |
| // version information. |
| // |
| // If a directory is named, go version walks that directory, recursively, |
| // looking for recognized Go binaries and reporting their versions. |
| // By default, go version does not report unrecognized files found |
| // during a directory scan. The -v flag causes it to report unrecognized files. |
| // |
| // The -m flag causes go version to print each executable's embedded |
| // module version information, when available. In the output, the module |
| // information consists of multiple lines following the version line, each |
| // indented by a leading tab character. |
| // |
| // See also: go doc runtime/debug.BuildInfo. |
| // |
| // |
| // Report likely mistakes in packages |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go vet [-n] [-x] [-vettool prog] [build flags] [vet flags] [packages] |
| // |
| // Vet runs the Go vet command on the packages named by the import paths. |
| // |
| // For more about vet and its flags, see 'go doc cmd/vet'. |
| // For more about specifying packages, see 'go help packages'. |
| // For a list of checkers and their flags, see 'go tool vet help'. |
| // For details of a specific checker such as 'printf', see 'go tool vet help printf'. |
| // |
| // The -n flag prints commands that would be executed. |
| // The -x flag prints commands as they are executed. |
| // |
| // The -vettool=prog flag selects a different analysis tool with alternative |
| // or additional checks. |
| // For example, the 'shadow' analyzer can be built and run using these commands: |
| // |
| // go install golang.org/x/tools/go/analysis/passes/shadow/cmd/shadow |
| // go vet -vettool=$(which shadow) |
| // |
| // The build flags supported by go vet are those that control package resolution |
| // and execution, such as -n, -x, -v, -tags, and -toolexec. |
| // For more about these flags, see 'go help build'. |
| // |
| // See also: go fmt, go fix. |
| // |
| // |
| // Build constraints |
| // |
| // A build constraint, also known as a build tag, is a line comment that begins |
| // |
| // // +build |
| // |
| // that lists the conditions under which a file should be included in the package. |
| // Constraints may appear in any kind of source file (not just Go), but |
| // they must appear near the top of the file, preceded |
| // only by blank lines and other line comments. These rules mean that in Go |
| // files a build constraint must appear before the package clause. |
| // |
| // To distinguish build constraints from package documentation, a series of |
| // build constraints must be followed by a blank line. |
| // |
| // A build constraint is evaluated as the OR of space-separated options. |
| // Each option evaluates as the AND of its comma-separated terms. |
| // Each term consists of letters, digits, underscores, and dots. |
| // A term may be negated with a preceding !. |
| // For example, the build constraint: |
| // |
| // // +build linux,386 darwin,!cgo |
| // |
| // corresponds to the boolean formula: |
| // |
| // (linux AND 386) OR (darwin AND (NOT cgo)) |
| // |
| // A file may have multiple build constraints. The overall constraint is the AND |
| // of the individual constraints. That is, the build constraints: |
| // |
| // // +build linux darwin |
| // // +build amd64 |
| // |
| // corresponds to the boolean formula: |
| // |
| // (linux OR darwin) AND amd64 |
| // |
| // During a particular build, the following words are satisfied: |
| // |
| // - the target operating system, as spelled by runtime.GOOS, set with the |
| // GOOS environment variable. |
| // - the target architecture, as spelled by runtime.GOARCH, set with the |
| // GOARCH environment variable. |
| // - the compiler being used, either "gc" or "gccgo" |
| // - "cgo", if the cgo command is supported (see CGO_ENABLED in |
| // 'go help environment'). |
| // - a term for each Go major release, through the current version: |
| // "go1.1" from Go version 1.1 onward, "go1.12" from Go 1.12, and so on. |
| // - any additional tags given by the -tags flag (see 'go help build'). |
| // |
| // There are no separate build tags for beta or minor releases. |
| // |
| // If a file's name, after stripping the extension and a possible _test suffix, |
| // matches any of the following patterns: |
| // *_GOOS |
| // *_GOARCH |
| // *_GOOS_GOARCH |
| // (example: source_windows_amd64.go) where GOOS and GOARCH represent |
| // any known operating system and architecture values respectively, then |
| // the file is considered to have an implicit build constraint requiring |
| // those terms (in addition to any explicit constraints in the file). |
| // |
| // Using GOOS=android matches build tags and files as for GOOS=linux |
| // in addition to android tags and files. |
| // |
| // Using GOOS=illumos matches build tags and files as for GOOS=solaris |
| // in addition to illumos tags and files. |
| // |
| // Using GOOS=ios matches build tags and files as for GOOS=darwin |
| // in addition to ios tags and files. |
| // |
| // To keep a file from being considered for the build: |
| // |
| // // +build ignore |
| // |
| // (any other unsatisfied word will work as well, but "ignore" is conventional.) |
| // |
| // To build a file only when using cgo, and only on Linux and OS X: |
| // |
| // // +build linux,cgo darwin,cgo |
| // |
| // Such a file is usually paired with another file implementing the |
| // default functionality for other systems, which in this case would |
| // carry the constraint: |
| // |
| // // +build !linux,!darwin !cgo |
| // |
| // Naming a file dns_windows.go will cause it to be included only when |
| // building the package for Windows; similarly, math_386.s will be included |
| // only when building the package for 32-bit x86. |
| // |
| // |
| // Build modes |
| // |
| // The 'go build' and 'go install' commands take a -buildmode argument which |
| // indicates which kind of object file is to be built. Currently supported values |
| // are: |
| // |
| // -buildmode=archive |
| // Build the listed non-main packages into .a files. Packages named |
| // main are ignored. |
| // |
| // -buildmode=c-archive |
| // Build the listed main package, plus all packages it imports, |
| // into a C archive file. The only callable symbols will be those |
| // functions exported using a cgo //export comment. Requires |
| // exactly one main package to be listed. |
| // |
| // -buildmode=c-shared |
| // Build the listed main package, plus all packages it imports, |
| // into a C shared library. The only callable symbols will |
| // be those functions exported using a cgo //export comment. |
| // Requires exactly one main package to be listed. |
| // |
| // -buildmode=default |
| // Listed main packages are built into executables and listed |
| // non-main packages are built into .a files (the default |
| // behavior). |
| // |
| // -buildmode=shared |
| // Combine all the listed non-main packages into a single shared |
| // library that will be used when building with the -linkshared |
| // option. Packages named main are ignored. |
| // |
| // -buildmode=exe |
| // Build the listed main packages and everything they import into |
| // executables. Packages not named main are ignored. |
| // |
| // -buildmode=pie |
| // Build the listed main packages and everything they import into |
| // position independent executables (PIE). Packages not named |
| // main are ignored. |
| // |
| // -buildmode=plugin |
| // Build the listed main packages, plus all packages that they |
| // import, into a Go plugin. Packages not named main are ignored. |
| // |
| // On AIX, when linking a C program that uses a Go archive built with |
| // -buildmode=c-archive, you must pass -Wl,-bnoobjreorder to the C compiler. |
| // |
| // |
| // Calling between Go and C |
| // |
| // There are two different ways to call between Go and C/C++ code. |
| // |
| // The first is the cgo tool, which is part of the Go distribution. For |
| // information on how to use it see the cgo documentation (go doc cmd/cgo). |
| // |
| // The second is the SWIG program, which is a general tool for |
| // interfacing between languages. For information on SWIG see |
| // http://swig.org/. When running go build, any file with a .swig |
| // extension will be passed to SWIG. Any file with a .swigcxx extension |
| // will be passed to SWIG with the -c++ option. |
| // |
| // When either cgo or SWIG is used, go build will pass any .c, .m, .s, .S |
| // or .sx files to the C compiler, and any .cc, .cpp, .cxx files to the C++ |
| // compiler. The CC or CXX environment variables may be set to determine |
| // the C or C++ compiler, respectively, to use. |
| // |
| // |
| // Build and test caching |
| // |
| // The go command caches build outputs for reuse in future builds. |
| // The default location for cache data is a subdirectory named go-build |
| // in the standard user cache directory for the current operating system. |
| // Setting the GOCACHE environment variable overrides this default, |
| // and running 'go env GOCACHE' prints the current cache directory. |
| // |
| // The go command periodically deletes cached data that has not been |
| // used recently. Running 'go clean -cache' deletes all cached data. |
| // |
| // The build cache correctly accounts for changes to Go source files, |
| // compilers, compiler options, and so on: cleaning the cache explicitly |
| // should not be necessary in typical use. However, the build cache |
| // does not detect changes to C libraries imported with cgo. |
| // If you have made changes to the C libraries on your system, you |
| // will need to clean the cache explicitly or else use the -a build flag |
| // (see 'go help build') to force rebuilding of packages that |
| // depend on the updated C libraries. |
| // |
| // The go command also caches successful package test results. |
| // See 'go help test' for details. Running 'go clean -testcache' removes |
| // all cached test results (but not cached build results). |
| // |
| // The GODEBUG environment variable can enable printing of debugging |
| // information about the state of the cache: |
| // |
| // GODEBUG=gocacheverify=1 causes the go command to bypass the |
| // use of any cache entries and instead rebuild everything and check |
| // that the results match existing cache entries. |
| // |
| // GODEBUG=gocachehash=1 causes the go command to print the inputs |
| // for all of the content hashes it uses to construct cache lookup keys. |
| // The output is voluminous but can be useful for debugging the cache. |
| // |
| // GODEBUG=gocachetest=1 causes the go command to print details of its |
| // decisions about whether to reuse a cached test result. |
| // |
| // |
| // Environment variables |
| // |
| // The go command and the tools it invokes consult environment variables |
| // for configuration. If an environment variable is unset, the go command |
| // uses a sensible default setting. To see the effective setting of the |
| // variable <NAME>, run 'go env <NAME>'. To change the default setting, |
| // run 'go env -w <NAME>=<VALUE>'. Defaults changed using 'go env -w' |
| // are recorded in a Go environment configuration file stored in the |
| // per-user configuration directory, as reported by os.UserConfigDir. |
| // The location of the configuration file can be changed by setting |
| // the environment variable GOENV, and 'go env GOENV' prints the |
| // effective location, but 'go env -w' cannot change the default location. |
| // See 'go help env' for details. |
| // |
| // General-purpose environment variables: |
| // |
| // GCCGO |
| // The gccgo command to run for 'go build -compiler=gccgo'. |
| // GOARCH |
| // The architecture, or processor, for which to compile code. |
| // Examples are amd64, 386, arm, ppc64. |
| // GOBIN |
| // The directory where 'go install' will install a command. |
| // GOCACHE |
| // The directory where the go command will store cached |
| // information for reuse in future builds. |
| // GOMODCACHE |
| // The directory where the go command will store downloaded modules. |
| // GODEBUG |
| // Enable various debugging facilities. See 'go doc runtime' |
| // for details. |
| // GOENV |
| // The location of the Go environment configuration file. |
| // Cannot be set using 'go env -w'. |
| // GOFLAGS |
| // A space-separated list of -flag=value settings to apply |
| // to go commands by default, when the given flag is known by |
| // the current command. Each entry must be a standalone flag. |
| // Because the entries are space-separated, flag values must |
| // not contain spaces. Flags listed on the command line |
| // are applied after this list and therefore override it. |
| // GOINSECURE |
| // Comma-separated list of glob patterns (in the syntax of Go's path.Match) |
| // of module path prefixes that should always be fetched in an insecure |
| // manner. Only applies to dependencies that are being fetched directly. |
| // Unlike the -insecure flag on 'go get', GOINSECURE does not disable |
| // checksum database validation. GOPRIVATE or GONOSUMDB may be used |
| // to achieve that. |
| // GOOS |
| // The operating system for which to compile code. |
| // Examples are linux, darwin, windows, netbsd. |
| // GOPATH |
| // For more details see: 'go help gopath'. |
| // GOPROXY |
| // URL of Go module proxy. See 'go help modules'. |
| // GOPRIVATE, GONOPROXY, GONOSUMDB |
| // Comma-separated list of glob patterns (in the syntax of Go's path.Match) |
| // of module path prefixes that should always be fetched directly |
| // or that should not be compared against the checksum database. |
| // See 'go help private'. |
| // GOROOT |
| // The root of the go tree. |
| // GOSUMDB |
| // The name of checksum database to use and optionally its public key and |
| // URL. See 'go help module-auth'. |
| // GOTMPDIR |

| // GOVERSION |

| // |
| // |
| // File types |
| // |
| // The go command examines the contents of a restricted set of files |
| // in each directory. It identifies which files to examine based on |
| // the extension of the file name. These extensions are: |
| // |
| // .go |
| // Go source files. |
| // .c, .h |
| // C source files. |
| // If the package uses cgo or SWIG, these will be compiled with the |
| // OS-native compiler (typically gcc); otherwise they will |
| // trigger an error. |
| // .cc, .cpp, .cxx, .hh, .hpp, .hxx |
| // C++ source files. Only useful with cgo or SWIG, and always |
| // compiled with the OS-native compiler. |
| // .m |
| // Objective-C source files. Only useful with cgo, and always |
| // compiled with the OS-native compiler. |
| // .s, .S, .sx |
| // Assembler source files. |
| // If the package uses cgo or SWIG, these will be assembled with the |
| // OS-native assembler (typically gcc (sic)); otherwise they |
| // will be assembled with the Go assembler. |
| // .swig, .swigcxx |
| // SWIG definition files. |
| // .syso |
| // System object files. |
| // |
| // Files of each of these types except .syso may contain build |
| // constraints, but the go command stops scanning for build constraints |
| // at the first item in the file that is not a blank line or //-style |
| // line comment. See the go/build package documentation for |
| // more details. |
| // |
| // |
| // The go.mod file |
| // |
| // A module version is defined by a tree of source files, with a go.mod |
| // file in its root. When the go command is run, it looks in the current |
| // directory and then successive parent directories to find the go.mod |
| // marking the root of the main (current) module. |
| // |
| // The go.mod file itself is line-oriented, with // comments but |
| // no /* */ comments. Each line holds a single directive, made up of a |
| // verb followed by arguments. For example: |
| // |
| // module my/thing |
| // go 1.12 |
| // require other/thing v1.0.2 |
| // require new/thing/v2 v2.3.4 |
| // exclude old/thing v1.2.3 |
| // replace bad/thing v1.4.5 => good/thing v1.4.5 |
| // retract v1.5.6 |
| // |
| // The verbs are |
| // module, to define the module path; |
| // go, to set the expected language version; |
| // require, to require a particular module at a given version or later; |
| // exclude, to exclude a particular module version from use; |
| // replace, to replace a module version with a different module version; and |
| // retract, to indicate a previously released version should not be used. |
| // Exclude and replace apply only in the main module's go.mod and are ignored |
| // in dependencies. See https://golang.org/ref/mod for details. |
| // |
| // The leading verb can be factored out of adjacent lines to create a block, |
| // like in Go imports: |
| // |
| // require ( |
| // new/thing/v2 v2.3.4 |
| // old/thing v1.2.3 |
| // ) |
| // |
| // The go.mod file is designed both to be edited directly and to be |
| // easily updated by tools. The 'go mod edit' command can be used to |
| // parse and edit the go.mod file from programs and tools. |
| // See 'go help mod edit'. |
| // |
| // The go command automatically updates go.mod each time it uses the |
| // module graph, to make sure go.mod always accurately reflects reality |
| // and is properly formatted. For example, consider this go.mod file: |
| // |
| // module M |
| // |
| // require ( |
| // A v1 |
| // B v1.0.0 |
| // C v1.0.0 |
| // D v1.2.3 |
| // E dev |
| // ) |
| // |
| // exclude D v1.2.3 |
| // |
| // The update rewrites non-canonical version identifiers to semver form, |
| // so A's v1 becomes v1.0.0 and E's dev becomes the pseudo-version for the |
| // latest commit on the dev branch, perhaps v0.0.0-20180523231146-b3f5c0f6e5f1. |
| // |
| // The update modifies requirements to respect exclusions, so the |
| // requirement on the excluded D v1.2.3 is updated to use the next |
| // available version of D, perhaps D v1.2.4 or D v1.3.0. |
| // |
| // The update removes redundant or misleading requirements. |
| // For example, if A v1.0.0 itself requires B v1.2.0 and C v1.0.0, |
| // then go.mod's requirement of B v1.0.0 is misleading (superseded by |
| // A's need for v1.2.0), and its requirement of C v1.0.0 is redundant |
| // (implied by A's need for the same version), so both will be removed. |
| // If module M contains packages that directly import packages from B or |
| // C, then the requirements will be kept but updated to the actual |
| // versions being used. |
| // |
| // Finally, the update reformats the go.mod in a canonical formatting, so |
| // that future mechanical changes will result in minimal diffs. |
| // |
| // Because the module graph defines the meaning of import statements, any |
| // commands that load packages also use and therefore update go.mod, |
| // including go build, go get, go install, go list, go test, go mod graph, |
| // go mod tidy, and go mod why. |
| // |
| // The expected language version, set by the go directive, determines |
| // which language features are available when compiling the module. |
| // Language features available in that version will be available for use. |
| // Language features removed in earlier versions, or added in later versions, |
| // will not be available. Note that the language version does not affect |
| // build tags, which are determined by the Go release being used. |
| // |
| // |
| // GOPATH environment variable |
| // |
| // The Go path is used to resolve import statements. |
| // It is implemented by and documented in the go/build package. |
| // |
| // The GOPATH environment variable lists places to look for Go code. |
| // On Unix, the value is a colon-separated string. |
| // On Windows, the value is a semicolon-separated string. |
| // On Plan 9, the value is a list. |
| // |
| // If the environment variable is unset, GOPATH defaults |
| // to a subdirectory named "go" in the user's home directory |
| // ($HOME/go on Unix, %USERPROFILE%\go on Windows), |
| // unless that directory holds a Go distribution. |
| // Run "go env GOPATH" to see the current GOPATH. |
| // |
| // See https://golang.org/wiki/SettingGOPATH to set a custom GOPATH. |
| // |
| // Each directory listed in GOPATH must have a prescribed structure: |
| // |
| // The src directory holds source code. The path below src |
| // determines the import path or executable name. |
| // |
| // The pkg directory holds installed package objects. |
| // As in the Go tree, each target operating system and |
| // architecture pair has its own subdirectory of pkg |
| // (pkg/GOOS_GOARCH). |
| // |
| // If DIR is a directory listed in the GOPATH, a package with |
| // source in DIR/src/foo/bar can be imported as "foo/bar" and |
| // has its compiled form installed to "DIR/pkg/GOOS_GOARCH/foo/bar.a". |
| // |
| // The bin directory holds compiled commands. |
| // Each command is named for its source directory, but only |
| // the final element, not the entire path. That is, the |
| // command with source in DIR/src/foo/quux is installed into |
| // DIR/bin/quux, not DIR/bin/foo/quux. The "foo/" prefix is stripped |
| // so that you can add DIR/bin to your PATH to get at the |
| // installed commands. If the GOBIN environment variable is |
| // set, commands are installed to the directory it names instead |
| // of DIR/bin. GOBIN must be an absolute path. |
| // |
| // Here's an example directory layout: |
| // |
| // GOPATH=/home/user/go |
| // |
| // /home/user/go/ |
| // src/ |
| // foo/ |
| // bar/ (go code in package bar) |
| // x.go |
| // quux/ (go code in package main) |
| // y.go |
| // bin/ |
| // quux (installed command) |
| // pkg/ |
| // linux_amd64/ |
| // foo/ |
| // bar.a (installed package object) |
| // |
| // Go searches each directory listed in GOPATH to find source code, |
| // but new packages are always downloaded into the first directory |
| // in the list. |
| // |
| // See https://golang.org/doc/code.html for an example. |
| // |
| // GOPATH and Modules |
| // |
| // When using modules, GOPATH is no longer used for resolving imports. |
| // However, it is still used to store downloaded source code (in GOPATH/pkg/mod) |
| // and compiled commands (in GOPATH/bin). |
| // |
| // Internal Directories |
| // |
| // Code in or below a directory named "internal" is importable only |
| // by code in the directory tree rooted at the parent of "internal". |
| // Here's an extended version of the directory layout above: |
| // |
| // /home/user/go/ |
| // src/ |
| // crash/ |
| // bang/ (go code in package bang) |
| // b.go |
| // foo/ (go code in package foo) |
| // f.go |
| // bar/ (go code in package bar) |
| // x.go |
| // internal/ |
| // baz/ (go code in package baz) |
| // z.go |
| // quux/ (go code in package main) |
| // y.go |
| // |
| // |
| // The code in z.go is imported as "foo/internal/baz", but that |
| // import statement can only appear in source files in the subtree |
| // rooted at foo. The source files foo/f.go, foo/bar/x.go, and |
| // foo/quux/y.go can all import "foo/internal/baz", but the source file |
| // crash/bang/b.go cannot. |
| // |
| // See https://golang.org/s/go14internal for details. |
| // |
| // Vendor Directories |
| // |
| // Go 1.6 includes support for using local copies of external dependencies |
| // to satisfy imports of those dependencies, often referred to as vendoring. |
| // |
| // Code below a directory named "vendor" is importable only |
| // by code in the directory tree rooted at the parent of "vendor", |
| // and only using an import path that omits the prefix up to and |
| // including the vendor element. |
| // |
| // Here's the example from the previous section, |
| // but with the "internal" directory renamed to "vendor" |
| // and a new foo/vendor/crash/bang directory added: |
| // |
| // /home/user/go/ |
| // src/ |
| // crash/ |
| // bang/ (go code in package bang) |
| // b.go |
| // foo/ (go code in package foo) |
| // f.go |
| // bar/ (go code in package bar) |
| // x.go |
| // vendor/ |
| // crash/ |
| // bang/ (go code in package bang) |
| // b.go |
| // baz/ (go code in package baz) |
| // z.go |
| // quux/ (go code in package main) |
| // y.go |
| // |
| // The same visibility rules apply as for internal, but the code |
| // in z.go is imported as "baz", not as "foo/vendor/baz". |
| // |
| // Code in vendor directories deeper in the source tree shadows |
| // code in higher directories. Within the subtree rooted at foo, an import |
| // of "crash/bang" resolves to "foo/vendor/crash/bang", not the |
| // top-level "crash/bang". |
| // |
| // Code in vendor directories is not subject to import path |
| // checking (see 'go help importpath'). |
| // |
| // When 'go get' checks out or updates a git repository, it now also |
| // updates submodules. |
| // |
| // Vendor directories do not affect the placement of new repositories |
| // being checked out for the first time by 'go get': those are always |
| // placed in the main GOPATH, never in a vendor subtree. |
| // |
| // See https://golang.org/s/go15vendor for details. |
| // |
| // |
| // Legacy GOPATH go get |
| // |
| // The 'go get' command changes behavior depending on whether the |
| // go command is running in module-aware mode or legacy GOPATH mode. |
| // This help text, accessible as 'go help gopath-get' even in module-aware mode, |
| // describes 'go get' as it operates in legacy GOPATH mode. |
| // |
| // Usage: go get [-d] [-f] [-t] [-u] [-v] [-fix] [-insecure] [build flags] [packages] |
| // |
| // Get downloads the packages named by the import paths, along with their |
| // dependencies. It then installs the named packages, like 'go install'. |
| // |
| // The -d flag instructs get to stop after downloading the packages; that is, |
| // it instructs get not to install the packages. |
| // |
| // The -f flag, valid only when -u is set, forces get -u not to verify that |
| // each package has been checked out from the source control repository |
| // implied by its import path. This can be useful if the source is a local fork |
| // of the original. |
| // |
| // The -fix flag instructs get to run the fix tool on the downloaded packages |
| // before resolving dependencies or building the code. |
| // |
| // The -insecure flag permits fetching from repositories and resolving |
| // custom domains using insecure schemes such as HTTP. Use with caution. |
| // This flag is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of go. |
| // The GOINSECURE environment variable should be used instead, since it |
| // provides control over which packages may be retrieved using an insecure |
| // scheme. See 'go help environment' for details. |
| // |
| // The -t flag instructs get to also download the packages required to build |
| // the tests for the specified packages. |
| // |
| // The -u flag instructs get to use the network to update the named packages |
| // and their dependencies. By default, get uses the network to check out |
| // missing packages but does not use it to look for updates to existing packages. |
| // |
| // The -v flag enables verbose progress and debug output. |
| // |
| // Get also accepts build flags to control the installation. See 'go help build'. |
| // |
| // When checking out a new package, get creates the target directory |
| // GOPATH/src/<import-path>. If the GOPATH contains multiple entries, |
| // get uses the first one. For more details see: 'go help gopath'. |
| // |
| // When checking out or updating a package, get looks for a branch or tag |
| // that matches the locally installed version of Go. The most important |
| // rule is that if the local installation is running version "go1", get |
| // searches for a branch or tag named "go1". If no such version exists |
| // it retrieves the default branch of the package. |
| // |
| // When go get checks out or updates a Git repository, |
| // it also updates any git submodules referenced by the repository. |
| // |
| // Get never checks out or updates code stored in vendor directories. |
| // |
| // For more about specifying packages, see 'go help packages'. |
| // |
| // For more about how 'go get' finds source code to |
| // download, see 'go help importpath'. |
| // |
| // This text describes the behavior of get when using GOPATH |
| // to manage source code and dependencies. |
| // If instead the go command is running in module-aware mode, |
| // the details of get's flags and effects change, as does 'go help get'. |
| // See 'go help modules' and 'go help module-get'. |
| // |
| // See also: go build, go install, go clean. |
| // |
| // |
| // Module proxy protocol |
| // |
| // A Go module proxy is any web server that can respond to GET requests for |
| // URLs of a specified form. The requests have no query parameters, so even |
| // a site serving from a fixed file system (including a file:/// URL) |
| // can be a module proxy. |
| // |
| // The GET requests sent to a Go module proxy are: |
| // |
| // GET $GOPROXY/<module>/@v/list returns a list of known versions of the given |
| // module, one per line. |
| // |
| // GET $GOPROXY/<module>/@v/<version>.info returns JSON-formatted metadata |
| // about that version of the given module. |
| // |
| // GET $GOPROXY/<module>/@v/<version>.mod returns the go.mod file |
| // for that version of the given module. |
| // |
| // GET $GOPROXY/<module>/@v/<version>.zip returns the zip archive |
| // for that version of the given module. |
| // |
| // GET $GOPROXY/<module>/@latest returns JSON-formatted metadata about the |
| // latest known version of the given module in the same format as |
| // <module>/@v/<version>.info. The latest version should be the version of |
| // the module the go command may use if <module>/@v/list is empty or no |
| // listed version is suitable. <module>/@latest is optional and may not |
| // be implemented by a module proxy. |
| // |
| // When resolving the latest version of a module, the go command will request |
| // <module>/@v/list, then, if no suitable versions are found, <module>/@latest. |
| // The go command prefers, in order: the semantically highest release version, |
| // the semantically highest pre-release version, and the chronologically |
| // most recent pseudo-version. In Go 1.12 and earlier, the go command considered |
| // pseudo-versions in <module>/@v/list to be pre-release versions, but this is |
| // no longer true since Go 1.13. |
| // |
| // To avoid problems when serving from case-sensitive file systems, |
| // the <module> and <version> elements are case-encoded, replacing every |
| // uppercase letter with an exclamation mark followed by the corresponding |
| // lower-case letter: github.com/Azure encodes as github.com/!azure. |
| // |
| // The JSON-formatted metadata about a given module corresponds to |
| // this Go data structure, which may be expanded in the future: |
| // |
| // type Info struct { |
| // Version string // version string |
| // Time time.Time // commit time |
| // } |
| // |
| // The zip archive for a specific version of a given module is a |
| // standard zip file that contains the file tree corresponding |
| // to the module's source code and related files. The archive uses |
| // slash-separated paths, and every file path in the archive must |
| // begin with <module>@<version>/, where the module and version are |
| // substituted directly, not case-encoded. The root of the module |
| // file tree corresponds to the <module>@<version>/ prefix in the |
| // archive. |
| // |
| // Even when downloading directly from version control systems, |
| // the go command synthesizes explicit info, mod, and zip files |
| // and stores them in its local cache, $GOPATH/pkg/mod/cache/download, |
| // the same as if it had downloaded them directly from a proxy. |
| // The cache layout is the same as the proxy URL space, so |
| // serving $GOPATH/pkg/mod/cache/download at (or copying it to) |
| // https://example.com/proxy would let other users access those |
| // cached module versions with GOPROXY=https://example.com/proxy. |
| // |
| // |
| // Import path syntax |
| // |
| // An import path (see 'go help packages') denotes a package stored in the local |
| // file system. In general, an import path denotes either a standard package (such |
| // as "unicode/utf8") or a package found in one of the work spaces (For more |
| // details see: 'go help gopath'). |
| // |
| // Relative import paths |
| // |
| // An import path beginning with ./ or ../ is called a relative path. |
| // The toolchain supports relative import paths as a shortcut in two ways. |
| // |
| // First, a relative path can be used as a shorthand on the command line. |
| // If you are working in the directory containing the code imported as |
| // "unicode" and want to run the tests for "unicode/utf8", you can type |
| // "go test ./utf8" instead of needing to specify the full path. |
| // Similarly, in the reverse situation, "go test .." will test "unicode" from |
| // the "unicode/utf8" directory. Relative patterns are also allowed, like |
| // "go test ./..." to test all subdirectories. See 'go help packages' for details |
| // on the pattern syntax. |
| // |
| // Second, if you are compiling a Go program not in a work space, |
| // you can use a relative path in an import statement in that program |
| // to refer to nearby code also not in a work space. |
| // This makes it easy to experiment with small multipackage programs |
| // outside of the usual work spaces, but such programs cannot be |
| // installed with "go install" (there is no work space in which to install them), |
| // so they are rebuilt from scratch each time they are built. |
| // To avoid ambiguity, Go programs cannot use relative import paths |
| // within a work space. |
| // |
| // Remote import paths |
| // |
| // Certain import paths also |
| // describe how to obtain the source code for the package using |
| // a revision control system. |
| // |
| // A few common code hosting sites have special syntax: |
| // |
| // Bitbucket (Git, Mercurial) |
| // |
| // import "bitbucket.org/user/project" |
| // import "bitbucket.org/user/project/sub/directory" |
| // |
| // GitHub (Git) |
| // |
| // import "github.com/user/project" |
| // import "github.com/user/project/sub/directory" |
| // |
| // Launchpad (Bazaar) |
| // |
| // import "launchpad.net/project" |
| // import "launchpad.net/project/series" |
| // import "launchpad.net/project/series/sub/directory" |
| // |
| // import "launchpad.net/~user/project/branch" |
| // import "launchpad.net/~user/project/branch/sub/directory" |
| // |
| // IBM DevOps Services (Git) |
| // |
| // import "hub.jazz.net/git/user/project" |
| // import "hub.jazz.net/git/user/project/sub/directory" |
| // |
| // For code hosted on other servers, import paths may either be qualified |
| // with the version control type, or the go tool can dynamically fetch |
| // the import path over https/http and discover where the code resides |
| // from a <meta> tag in the HTML. |
| // |
| // To declare the code location, an import path of the form |
| // |
| // repository.vcs/path |
| // |
| // specifies the given repository, with or without the .vcs suffix, |
| // using the named version control system, and then the path inside |
| // that repository. The supported version control systems are: |
| // |
| // Bazaar .bzr |
| // Fossil .fossil |
| // Git .git |
| // Mercurial .hg |
| // Subversion .svn |
| // |
| // For example, |
| // |
| // import "example.org/user/foo.hg" |
| // |
| // denotes the root directory of the Mercurial repository at |
| // example.org/user/foo or foo.hg, and |
| // |
| // import "example.org/repo.git/foo/bar" |
| // |
| // denotes the foo/bar directory of the Git repository at |
| // example.org/repo or repo.git. |
| // |
| // When a version control system supports multiple protocols, |
| // each is tried in turn when downloading. For example, a Git |
| // download tries https://, then git+ssh://. |
| // |
| // By default, downloads are restricted to known secure protocols |
| // (e.g. https, ssh). To override this setting for Git downloads, the |
| // GIT_ALLOW_PROTOCOL environment variable can be set (For more details see: |
| // 'go help environment'). |
| // |
| // If the import path is not a known code hosting site and also lacks a |
| // version control qualifier, the go tool attempts to fetch the import |
| // over https/http and looks for a <meta> tag in the document's HTML |
| // <head>. |
| // |
| // The meta tag has the form: |
| // |
| // <meta name="go-import" content="import-prefix vcs repo-root"> |
| // |
| // The import-prefix is the import path corresponding to the repository |
| // root. It must be a prefix or an exact match of the package being |
| // fetched with "go get". If it's not an exact match, another http |
| // request is made at the prefix to verify the <meta> tags match. |
| // |
| // The meta tag should appear as early in the file as possible. |
| // In particular, it should appear before any raw JavaScript or CSS, |
| // to avoid confusing the go command's restricted parser. |
| // |
| // The vcs is one of "bzr", "fossil", "git", "hg", "svn". |
| // |
| // The repo-root is the root of the version control system |
| // containing a scheme and not containing a .vcs qualifier. |
| // |
| // For example, |
| // |
| // import "example.org/pkg/foo" |
| // |
| // will result in the following requests: |
| // |
| // https://example.org/pkg/foo?go-get=1 (preferred) |
| // http://example.org/pkg/foo?go-get=1 (fallback, only with -insecure) |
| // |
| // If that page contains the meta tag |
| // |
| // <meta name="go-import" content="example.org git https://code.org/r/p/exproj"> |
| // |
| // the go tool will verify that https://example.org/?go-get=1 contains the |
| // same meta tag and then git clone https://code.org/r/p/exproj into |
| // GOPATH/src/example.org. |
| // |
| // When using GOPATH, downloaded packages are written to the first directory |
| // listed in the GOPATH environment variable. |
| // (See 'go help gopath-get' and 'go help gopath'.) |
| // |
| // When using modules, downloaded packages are stored in the module cache. |
| // (See 'go help module-get' and 'go help goproxy'.) |
| // |
| // When using modules, an additional variant of the go-import meta tag is |
| // recognized and is preferred over those listing version control systems. |
| // That variant uses "mod" as the vcs in the content value, as in: |
| // |
| // <meta name="go-import" content="example.org mod https://code.org/moduleproxy"> |
| // |
| // This tag means to fetch modules with paths beginning with example.org |
| // from the module proxy available at the URL https://code.org/moduleproxy. |
| // See 'go help goproxy' for details about the proxy protocol. |
| // |
| // Import path checking |
| // |
| // When the custom import path feature described above redirects to a |
| // known code hosting site, each of the resulting packages has two possible |
| // import paths, using the custom domain or the known hosting site. |
| // |
| // A package statement is said to have an "import comment" if it is immediately |
| // followed (before the next newline) by a comment of one of these two forms: |
| // |
| // package math // import "path" |
| // package math /* import "path" */ |
| // |
| // The go command will refuse to install a package with an import comment |
| // unless it is being referred to by that import path. In this way, import comments |
| // let package authors make sure the custom import path is used and not a |
| // direct path to the underlying code hosting site. |
| // |
| // Import path checking is disabled for code found within vendor trees. |
| // This makes it possible to copy code into alternate locations in vendor trees |
| // without needing to update import comments. |
| // |
| // Import path checking is also disabled when using modules. |
| // Import path comments are obsoleted by the go.mod file's module statement. |
| // |
| // See https://golang.org/s/go14customimport for details. |
| // |
| // |
| // Modules, module versions, and more |
| // |
| // A module is a collection of related Go packages. |
| // Modules are the unit of source code interchange and versioning. |
| // The go command has direct support for working with modules, |
| // including recording and resolving dependencies on other modules. |
| // Modules replace the old GOPATH-based approach to specifying |
| // which source files are used in a given build. |
| // |
| // Module support |
| // |
| // The go command includes support for Go modules. Module-aware mode is active |
| // by default whenever a go.mod file is found in the current directory or in |
| // any parent directory. |
| // |
| // The quickest way to take advantage of module support is to check out your |
| // repository, create a go.mod file (described in the next section) there, and run |
| // go commands from within that file tree. |
| // |
| // For more fine-grained control, the go command continues to respect |
| // a temporary environment variable, GO111MODULE, which can be set to one |
| // of three string values: off, on, or auto (the default). |
| // If GO111MODULE=on, then the go command requires the use of modules, |
| // never consulting GOPATH. We refer to this as the command |
| // being module-aware or running in "module-aware mode". |
| // If GO111MODULE=off, then the go command never uses |
| // module support. Instead it looks in vendor directories and GOPATH |
| // to find dependencies; we now refer to this as "GOPATH mode." |
| // If GO111MODULE=auto or is unset, then the go command enables or disables |
| // module support based on the current directory. |
| // Module support is enabled only when the current directory contains a |
| // go.mod file or is below a directory containing a go.mod file. |
| // |
| // In module-aware mode, GOPATH no longer defines the meaning of imports |
| // during a build, but it still stores downloaded dependencies (in GOPATH/pkg/mod) |
| // and installed commands (in GOPATH/bin, unless GOBIN is set). |
| // |
| // Defining a module |
| // |
| // A module is defined by a tree of Go source files with a go.mod file |
| // in the tree's root directory. The directory containing the go.mod file |
| // is called the module root. Typically the module root will also correspond |
| // to a source code repository root (but in general it need not). |
| // The module is the set of all Go packages in the module root and its |
| // subdirectories, but excluding subtrees with their own go.mod files. |
| // |
| // The "module path" is the import path prefix corresponding to the module root. |
| // The go.mod file defines the module path and lists the specific versions |
| // of other modules that should be used when resolving imports during a build, |
| // by giving their module paths and versions. |
| // |
| // For example, this go.mod declares that the directory containing it is the root |
| // of the module with path example.com/m, and it also declares that the module |
| // depends on specific versions of golang.org/x/text and gopkg.in/yaml.v2: |
| // |
| // module example.com/m |
| // |
| // require ( |
| // golang.org/x/text v0.3.0 |
| // gopkg.in/yaml.v2 v2.1.0 |
| // ) |
| // |
| // The go.mod file can also specify replacements and excluded versions |
| // that only apply when building the module directly; they are ignored |
| // when the module is incorporated into a larger build. |
| // For more about the go.mod file, see 'go help go.mod'. |
| // |
| // To start a new module, simply create a go.mod file in the root of the |
| // module's directory tree, containing only a module statement. |
| // The 'go mod init' command can be used to do this: |
| // |
| // go mod init example.com/m |
| // |
| // In a project already using an existing dependency management tool like |
| // godep, glide, or dep, 'go mod init' will also add require statements |
| // matching the existing configuration. |
| // |
| // Once the go.mod file exists, no additional steps are required: |
| // go commands like 'go build', 'go test', or even 'go list' will automatically |
| // add new dependencies as needed to satisfy imports. |
| // |
| // The main module and the build list |
| // |
| // The "main module" is the module containing the directory where the go command |
| // is run. The go command finds the module root by looking for a go.mod in the |
| // current directory, or else the current directory's parent directory, |
| // or else the parent's parent directory, and so on. |
| // |
| // The main module's go.mod file defines the precise set of packages available |
| // for use by the go command, through require, replace, and exclude statements. |
| // Dependency modules, found by following require statements, also contribute |
| // to the definition of that set of packages, but only through their go.mod |
| // files' require statements: any replace and exclude statements in dependency |
| // modules are ignored. The replace and exclude statements therefore allow the |
| // main module complete control over its own build, without also being subject |
| // to complete control by dependencies. |
| // |
| // The set of modules providing packages to builds is called the "build list". |
| // The build list initially contains only the main module. Then the go command |
| // adds to the list the exact module versions required by modules already |
| // on the list, recursively, until there is nothing left to add to the list. |
| // If multiple versions of a particular module are added to the list, |
| // then at the end only the latest version (according to semantic version |
| // ordering) is kept for use in the build. |
| // |
| // The 'go list' command provides information about the main module |
| // and the build list. For example: |
| // |
| // go list -m # print path of main module |
| // go list -m -f={{.Dir}} # print root directory of main module |
| // go list -m all # print build list |
| // |
| // Maintaining module requirements |
| // |
| // The go.mod file is meant to be readable and editable by both programmers and |
| // tools. Most updates to dependencies can be performed using "go get" and |
| // "go mod tidy". Other module-aware build commands may be invoked using the |
| // -mod=mod flag to automatically add missing requirements and fix inconsistencies. |
| // |
| // The "go get" command updates go.mod to change the module versions used in a |
| // build. An upgrade of one module may imply upgrading others, and similarly a |
| // downgrade of one module may imply downgrading others. The "go get" command |
| // makes these implied changes as well. See "go help module-get". |
| // |
| // The "go mod" command provides other functionality for use in maintaining |
| // and understanding modules and go.mod files. See "go help mod", particularly |
| // "go help mod tidy" and "go help mod edit". |
| // |
| // As part of maintaining the require statements in go.mod, the go command |
| // tracks which ones provide packages imported directly by the current module |
| // and which ones provide packages only used indirectly by other module |
| // dependencies. Requirements needed only for indirect uses are marked with a |
| // "// indirect" comment in the go.mod file. Indirect requirements may be |
| // automatically removed from the go.mod file once they are implied by other |
| // direct requirements. Indirect requirements only arise when using modules |
| // that fail to state some of their own dependencies or when explicitly |
| // upgrading a module's dependencies ahead of its own stated requirements. |
| // |
| // The -mod build flag provides additional control over the updating and use of |
| // go.mod for commands that build packages like "go build" and "go test". |
| // |
| // If invoked with -mod=readonly (the default in most situations), the go command |
| // reports an error if a package named on the command line or an imported package |
| // is not provided by any module in the build list computed from the main module's |
| // requirements. The go command also reports an error if a module's checksum is |
| // missing from go.sum (see Module downloading and verification). Either go.mod or |
| // go.sum must be updated in these situations. |
| // |
| // If invoked with -mod=mod, the go command automatically updates go.mod and |
| // go.sum, fixing inconsistencies and adding missing requirements and checksums |
| // as needed. If the go command finds an unfamiliar import, it looks up the |
| // module containing that import and adds a requirement for the latest version |
| // of that module to go.mod. In most cases, therefore, one may add an import to |
| // source code and run "go build", "go test", or even "go list" with -mod=mod: |
| // as part of analyzing the package, the go command will resolve the import and |
| // update the go.mod file. |
| // |
| // If invoked with -mod=vendor, the go command loads packages from the main |
| // module's vendor directory instead of downloading modules to and loading packages |
| // from the module cache. The go command assumes the vendor directory holds |
| // correct copies of dependencies, and it does not compute the set of required |
| // module versions from go.mod files. However, the go command does check that |
| // vendor/modules.txt (generated by "go mod vendor") contains metadata consistent |
| // with go.mod. |
| // |
| // If the go command is not invoked with a -mod flag, and the vendor directory |
| // is present, and the "go" version in go.mod is 1.14 or higher, the go command |
| // will act as if it were invoked with -mod=vendor. Otherwise, the -mod flag |
| // defaults to -mod=readonly. |
| // |
| // Note that neither "go get" nor the "go mod" subcommands accept the -mod flag. |
| // |
| // Pseudo-versions |
| // |
| // The go.mod file and the go command more generally use semantic versions as |
| // the standard form for describing module versions, so that versions can be |
| // compared to determine which should be considered earlier or later than another. |
| // A module version like v1.2.3 is introduced by tagging a revision in the |
| // underlying source repository. Untagged revisions can be referred to |
| // using a "pseudo-version" like v0.0.0-yyyymmddhhmmss-abcdefabcdef, |
| // where the time is the commit time in UTC and the final suffix is the prefix |
| // of the commit hash. The time portion ensures that two pseudo-versions can |
| // be compared to determine which happened later, the commit hash identifes |
| // the underlying commit, and the prefix (v0.0.0- in this example) is derived from |
| // the most recent tagged version in the commit graph before this commit. |
| // |
| // There are three pseudo-version forms: |
| // |
| // vX.0.0-yyyymmddhhmmss-abcdefabcdef is used when there is no earlier |
| // versioned commit with an appropriate major version before the target commit. |
| // (This was originally the only form, so some older go.mod files use this form |
| // even for commits that do follow tags.) |
| // |
| // vX.Y.Z-pre.0.yyyymmddhhmmss-abcdefabcdef is used when the most |
| // recent versioned commit before the target commit is vX.Y.Z-pre. |
| // |
| // vX.Y.(Z+1)-0.yyyymmddhhmmss-abcdefabcdef is used when the most |
| // recent versioned commit before the target commit is vX.Y.Z. |
| // |
| // Pseudo-versions never need to be typed by hand: the go command will accept |
| // the plain commit hash and translate it into a pseudo-version (or a tagged |
| // version if available) automatically. This conversion is an example of a |
| // module query. |
| // |
| // Module queries |
| // |
| // The go command accepts a "module query" in place of a module version |
| // both on the command line and in the main module's go.mod file. |
| // (After evaluating a query found in the main module's go.mod file, |
| // the go command updates the file to replace the query with its result.) |
| // |
| // A fully-specified semantic version, such as "v1.2.3", |
| // evaluates to that specific version. |
| // |
| // A semantic version prefix, such as "v1" or "v1.2", |
| // evaluates to the latest available tagged version with that prefix. |
| // |
| // A semantic version comparison, such as "<v1.2.3" or ">=v1.5.6", |
| // evaluates to the available tagged version nearest to the comparison target |
| // (the latest version for < and <=, the earliest version for > and >=). |
| // |
| // The string "latest" matches the latest available tagged version, |
| // or else the underlying source repository's latest untagged revision. |
| // |
| // The string "upgrade" is like "latest", but if the module is |
| // currently required at a later version than the version "latest" |
| // would select (for example, a newer pre-release version), "upgrade" |
| // will select the later version instead. |
| // |
| // The string "patch" matches the latest available tagged version |
| // of a module with the same major and minor version numbers as the |
| // currently required version. If no version is currently required, |
| // "patch" is equivalent to "latest". |
| // |
| // A revision identifier for the underlying source repository, such as |
| // a commit hash prefix, revision tag, or branch name, selects that |
| // specific code revision. If the revision is also tagged with a |
| // semantic version, the query evaluates to that semantic version. |
| // Otherwise the query evaluates to a pseudo-version for the commit. |
| // Note that branches and tags with names that are matched by other |
| // query syntax cannot be selected this way. For example, the query |
| // "v2" means the latest version starting with "v2", not the branch |
| // named "v2". |
| // |
| // All queries prefer release versions to pre-release versions. |
| // For example, "<v1.2.3" will prefer to return "v1.2.2" |
| // instead of "v1.2.3-pre1", even though "v1.2.3-pre1" is nearer |
| // to the comparison target. |
| // |
| // Module versions disallowed by exclude statements in the |
| // main module's go.mod are considered unavailable and cannot |
| // be returned by queries. |
| // |
| // For example, these commands are all valid: |
| // |
| // go get github.com/gorilla/mux@latest # same (@latest is default for 'go get') |
| // go get github.com/gorilla/mux@v1.6.2 # records v1.6.2 |
| // go get github.com/gorilla/mux@e3702bed2 # records v1.6.2 |
| // go get github.com/gorilla/mux@c856192 # records v0.0.0-20180517173623-c85619274f5d |
| // go get github.com/gorilla/mux@master # records current meaning of master |
| // |
| // Module compatibility and semantic versioning |
| // |
| // The go command requires that modules use semantic versions and expects that |
| // the versions accurately describe compatibility: it assumes that v1.5.4 is a |
| // backwards-compatible replacement for v1.5.3, v1.4.0, and even v1.0.0. |
| // More generally the go command expects that packages follow the |
| // "import compatibility rule", which says: |
| // |
| // "If an old package and a new package have the same import path, |
| // the new package must be backwards compatible with the old package." |
| // |
| // Because the go command assumes the import compatibility rule, |
| // a module definition can only set the minimum required version of one |
| // of its dependencies: it cannot set a maximum or exclude selected versions. |
| // Still, the import compatibility rule is not a guarantee: it may be that |
| // v1.5.4 is buggy and not a backwards-compatible replacement for v1.5.3. |
| // Because of this, the go command never updates from an older version |
| // to a newer version of a module unasked. |
| // |
| // In semantic versioning, changing the major version number indicates a lack |
| // of backwards compatibility with earlier versions. To preserve import |
| // compatibility, the go command requires that modules with major version v2 |
| // or later use a module path with that major version as the final element. |
| // For example, version v2.0.0 of example.com/m must instead use module path |
| // example.com/m/v2, and packages in that module would use that path as |
| // their import path prefix, as in example.com/m/v2/sub/pkg. Including the |
| // major version number in the module path and import paths in this way is |
| // called "semantic import versioning". Pseudo-versions for modules with major |
| // version v2 and later begin with that major version instead of v0, as in |
| // v2.0.0-20180326061214-4fc5987536ef. |
| // |
| // As a special case, module paths beginning with gopkg.in/ continue to use the |
| // conventions established on that system: the major version is always present, |
| // and it is preceded by a dot instead of a slash: gopkg.in/yaml.v1 |
| // and gopkg.in/yaml.v2, not gopkg.in/yaml and gopkg.in/yaml/v2. |
| // |
| // The go command treats modules with different module paths as unrelated: |
| // it makes no connection between example.com/m and example.com/m/v2. |
| // Modules with different major versions can be used together in a build |
| // and are kept separate by the fact that their packages use different |
| // import paths. |
| // |
| // In semantic versioning, major version v0 is for initial development, |
| // indicating no expectations of stability or backwards compatibility. |
| // Major version v0 does not appear in the module path, because those |
| // versions are preparation for v1.0.0, and v1 does not appear in the |
| // module path either. |
| // |
| // Code written before the semantic import versioning convention |
| // was introduced may use major versions v2 and later to describe |
| // the same set of unversioned import paths as used in v0 and v1. |
| // To accommodate such code, if a source code repository has a |
| // v2.0.0 or later tag for a file tree with no go.mod, the version is |
| // considered to be part of the v1 module's available versions |
| // and is given an +incompatible suffix when converted to a module |
| // version, as in v2.0.0+incompatible. The +incompatible tag is also |
| // applied to pseudo-versions derived from such versions, as in |
| // v2.0.1-0.yyyymmddhhmmss-abcdefabcdef+incompatible. |
| // |
| // In general, having a dependency in the build list (as reported by 'go list -m all') |
| // on a v0 version, pre-release version, pseudo-version, or +incompatible version |
| // is an indication that problems are more likely when upgrading that |
| // dependency, since there is no expectation of compatibility for those. |
| // |
| // See https://research.swtch.com/vgo-import for more information about |
| // semantic import versioning, and see https://semver.org/ for more about |
| // semantic versioning. |
| // |

| // |
| // For now, see https://research.swtch.com/vgo-module for information |
| // about how source code in version control systems is mapped to |
| // module file trees. |
| // |
| // Module downloading and verification |
| // |
| // The go command can fetch modules from a proxy or connect to source control |
| // servers directly, according to the setting of the GOPROXY environment |
| // variable (see 'go help env'). The default setting for GOPROXY is |
| // "https://proxy.golang.org,direct", which means to try the |
| // Go module mirror run by Google and fall back to a direct connection |
| // if the proxy reports that it does not have the module (HTTP error 404 or 410). |
| // See https://proxy.golang.org/privacy for the service's privacy policy. |
| // |
| // If GOPROXY is set to the string "direct", downloads use a direct connection to |
| // source control servers. Setting GOPROXY to "off" disallows downloading modules |
| // from any source. Otherwise, GOPROXY is expected to be list of module proxy URLs |
| // separated by either comma (,) or pipe (|) characters, which control error |
| // fallback behavior. For each request, the go command tries each proxy in |
| // sequence. If there is an error, the go command will try the next proxy in the |
| // list if the error is a 404 or 410 HTTP response or if the current proxy is |
| // followed by a pipe character, indicating it is safe to fall back on any error. |
| // |
| // The GOPRIVATE and GONOPROXY environment variables allow bypassing |
| // the proxy for selected modules. See 'go help private' for details. |
| // |
| // No matter the source of the modules, the go command checks downloads against |
| // known checksums, to detect unexpected changes in the content of any specific |
| // module version from one day to the next. This check first consults the current |
| // module's go.sum file but falls back to the Go checksum database, controlled by |
| // the GOSUMDB and GONOSUMDB environment variables. See 'go help module-auth' |
| // for details. |
| // |
| // See 'go help goproxy' for details about the proxy protocol and also |
| // the format of the cached downloaded packages. |
| // |
| // Modules and vendoring |
| // |
| // When using modules, the go command typically satisfies dependencies by |
| // downloading modules from their sources and using those downloaded copies |
| // (after verification, as described in the previous section). Vendoring may |
| // be used to allow interoperation with older versions of Go, or to ensure |
| // that all files used for a build are stored together in a single file tree. |
| // |
| // The command 'go mod vendor' constructs a directory named vendor in the main |
| // module's root directory that contains copies of all packages needed to support |
| // builds and tests of packages in the main module. 'go mod vendor' also |
| // creates the file vendor/modules.txt that contains metadata about vendored |
| // packages and module versions. This file should be kept consistent with go.mod: |
| // when vendoring is used, 'go mod vendor' should be run after go.mod is updated. |
| // |
| // If the vendor directory is present in the main module's root directory, it will |
| // be used automatically if the "go" version in the main module's go.mod file is |
| // 1.14 or higher. Build commands like 'go build' and 'go test' will load packages |
| // from the vendor directory instead of accessing the network or the local module |
| // cache. To explicitly enable vendoring, invoke the go command with the flag |
| // -mod=vendor. To disable vendoring, use the flag -mod=mod. |
| // |
| // Unlike vendoring in GOPATH, the go command ignores vendor directories in |
| // locations other than the main module's root directory. |
| // |
| // |
| // Module authentication using go.sum |
| // |
| // The go command tries to authenticate every downloaded module, |
| // checking that the bits downloaded for a specific module version today |
| // match bits downloaded yesterday. This ensures repeatable builds |
| // and detects introduction of unexpected changes, malicious or not. |
| // |
| // In each module's root, alongside go.mod, the go command maintains |
| // a file named go.sum containing the cryptographic checksums of the |
| // module's dependencies. |
| // |
| // The form of each line in go.sum is three fields: |
| // |
| // <module> <version>[/go.mod] <hash> |
| // |
| // Each known module version results in two lines in the go.sum file. |
| // The first line gives the hash of the module version's file tree. |
| // The second line appends "/go.mod" to the version and gives the hash |
| // of only the module version's (possibly synthesized) go.mod file. |
| // The go.mod-only hash allows downloading and authenticating a |
| // module version's go.mod file, which is needed to compute the |
| // dependency graph, without also downloading all the module's source code. |
| // |
| // The hash begins with an algorithm prefix of the form "h<N>:". |
| // The only defined algorithm prefix is "h1:", which uses SHA-256. |
| // |
| // Module authentication failures |
| // |
| // The go command maintains a cache of downloaded packages and computes |
| // and records the cryptographic checksum of each package at download time. |
| // In normal operation, the go command checks the main module's go.sum file |
| // against these precomputed checksums instead of recomputing them on |
| // each command invocation. The 'go mod verify' command checks that |
| // the cached copies of module downloads still match both their recorded |
| // checksums and the entries in go.sum. |
| // |
| // In day-to-day development, the checksum of a given module version |
| // should never change. Each time a dependency is used by a given main |
| // module, the go command checks its local cached copy, freshly |
| // downloaded or not, against the main module's go.sum. If the checksums |
| // don't match, the go command reports the mismatch as a security error |
| // and refuses to run the build. When this happens, proceed with caution: |
| // code changing unexpectedly means today's build will not match |
| // yesterday's, and the unexpected change may not be beneficial. |
| // |
| // If the go command reports a mismatch in go.sum, the downloaded code |
| // for the reported module version does not match the one used in a |
| // previous build of the main module. It is important at that point |
| // to find out what the right checksum should be, to decide whether |
| // go.sum is wrong or the downloaded code is wrong. Usually go.sum is right: |
| // you want to use the same code you used yesterday. |
| // |
| // If a downloaded module is not yet included in go.sum and it is a publicly |
| // available module, the go command consults the Go checksum database to fetch |
| // the expected go.sum lines. If the downloaded code does not match those |
| // lines, the go command reports the mismatch and exits. Note that the |
| // database is not consulted for module versions already listed in go.sum. |
| // |
| // If a go.sum mismatch is reported, it is always worth investigating why |
| // the code downloaded today differs from what was downloaded yesterday. |
| // |
| // The GOSUMDB environment variable identifies the name of checksum database |
| // to use and optionally its public key and URL, as in: |
| // |
| // GOSUMDB="sum.golang.org" |
| // GOSUMDB="sum.golang.org+<publickey>" |
| // GOSUMDB="sum.golang.org+<publickey> https://sum.golang.org" |
| // |
| // The go command knows the public key of sum.golang.org, and also that the name |
| // sum.golang.google.cn (available inside mainland China) connects to the |
| // sum.golang.org checksum database; use of any other database requires giving |
| // the public key explicitly. |
| // The URL defaults to "https://" followed by the database name. |
| // |
| // GOSUMDB defaults to "sum.golang.org", the Go checksum database run by Google. |
| // See https://sum.golang.org/privacy for the service's privacy policy. |
| // |
| // If GOSUMDB is set to "off", or if "go get" is invoked with the -insecure flag, |
| // the checksum database is not consulted, and all unrecognized modules are |
| // accepted, at the cost of giving up the security guarantee of verified repeatable |
| // downloads for all modules. A better way to bypass the checksum database |
| // for specific modules is to use the GOPRIVATE or GONOSUMDB environment |
| // variables. See 'go help private' for details. |
| // |
| // The 'go env -w' command (see 'go help env') can be used to set these variables |
| // for future go command invocations. |
| // |
| // |
| // Package lists and patterns |
| // |
| // Many commands apply to a set of packages: |
| // |
| // go action [packages] |
| // |
| // Usually, [packages] is a list of import paths. |
| // |
| // An import path that is a rooted path or that begins with |
| // a . or .. element is interpreted as a file system path and |
| // denotes the package in that directory. |
| // |
| // Otherwise, the import path P denotes the package found in |
| // the directory DIR/src/P for some DIR listed in the GOPATH |
| // environment variable (For more details see: 'go help gopath'). |
| // |
| // If no import paths are given, the action applies to the |
| // package in the current directory. |
| // |
| // There are four reserved names for paths that should not be used |
| // for packages to be built with the go tool: |
| // |
| // - "main" denotes the top-level package in a stand-alone executable. |
| // |
| // - "all" expands to all packages found in all the GOPATH |
| // trees. For example, 'go list all' lists all the packages on the local |
| // system. When using modules, "all" expands to all packages in |
| // the main module and their dependencies, including dependencies |
| // needed by tests of any of those. |
| // |
| // - "std" is like all but expands to just the packages in the standard |
| // Go library. |
| // |
| // - "cmd" expands to the Go repository's commands and their |
| // internal libraries. |
| // |
| // Import paths beginning with "cmd/" only match source code in |
| // the Go repository. |
| // |
| // An import path is a pattern if it includes one or more "..." wildcards, |
| // each of which can match any string, including the empty string and |
| // strings containing slashes. Such a pattern expands to all package |
| // directories found in the GOPATH trees with names matching the |
| // patterns. |
| // |
| // To make common patterns more convenient, there are two special cases. |
| // First, /... at the end of the pattern can match an empty string, |
| // so that net/... matches both net and packages in its subdirectories, like net/http. |
| // Second, any slash-separated pattern element containing a wildcard never |
| // participates in a match of the "vendor" element in the path of a vendored |
| // package, so that ./... does not match packages in subdirectories of |
| // ./vendor or ./mycode/vendor, but ./vendor/... and ./mycode/vendor/... do. |
| // Note, however, that a directory named vendor that itself contains code |
| // is not a vendored package: cmd/vendor would be a command named vendor, |
| // and the pattern cmd/... matches it. |
| // See golang.org/s/go15vendor for more about vendoring. |
| // |
| // An import path can also name a package to be downloaded from |
| // a remote repository. Run 'go help importpath' for details. |
| // |
| // Every package in a program must have a unique import path. |
| // By convention, this is arranged by starting each path with a |
| // unique prefix that belongs to you. For example, paths used |
| // internally at Google all begin with 'google', and paths |
| // denoting remote repositories begin with the path to the code, |
| // such as 'github.com/user/repo'. |
| // |
| // Packages in a program need not have unique package names, |
| // but there are two reserved package names with special meaning. |
| // The name main indicates a command, not a library. |
| // Commands are built into binaries and cannot be imported. |
| // The name documentation indicates documentation for |
| // a non-Go program in the directory. Files in package documentation |
| // are ignored by the go command. |
| // |
| // As a special case, if the package list is a list of .go files from a |
| // single directory, the command is applied to a single synthesized |
| // package made up of exactly those files, ignoring any build constraints |
| // in those files and ignoring any other files in the directory. |
| // |
| // Directory and file names that begin with "." or "_" are ignored |
| // by the go tool, as are directories named "testdata". |
| // |
| // |
| // Configuration for downloading non-public code |
| // |
| // The go command defaults to downloading modules from the public Go module |
| // mirror at proxy.golang.org. It also defaults to validating downloaded modules, |
| // regardless of source, against the public Go checksum database at sum.golang.org. |
| // These defaults work well for publicly available source code. |
| // |
| // The GOPRIVATE environment variable controls which modules the go command |
| // considers to be private (not available publicly) and should therefore not use the |
| // proxy or checksum database. The variable is a comma-separated list of |
| // glob patterns (in the syntax of Go's path.Match) of module path prefixes. |
| // For example, |
| // |
| // GOPRIVATE=*.corp.example.com,rsc.io/private |
| // |
| // causes the go command to treat as private any module with a path prefix |
| // matching either pattern, including git.corp.example.com/xyzzy, rsc.io/private, |
| // and rsc.io/private/quux. |
| // |
| // The GOPRIVATE environment variable may be used by other tools as well to |
| // identify non-public modules. For example, an editor could use GOPRIVATE |
| // to decide whether to hyperlink a package import to a godoc.org page. |
| // |
| // For fine-grained control over module download and validation, the GONOPROXY |
| // and GONOSUMDB environment variables accept the same kind of glob list |
| // and override GOPRIVATE for the specific decision of whether to use the proxy |
| // and checksum database, respectively. |
| // |
| // For example, if a company ran a module proxy serving private modules, |
| // users would configure go using: |
| // |
| // GOPRIVATE=*.corp.example.com |
| // GOPROXY=proxy.example.com |
| // GONOPROXY=none |
| // |
| // This would tell the go command and other tools that modules beginning with |
| // a corp.example.com subdomain are private but that the company proxy should |
| // be used for downloading both public and private modules, because |
| // GONOPROXY has been set to a pattern that won't match any modules, |
| // overriding GOPRIVATE. |
| // |
| // The GOPRIVATE variable is also used to define the "public" and "private" |
| // patterns for the GOVCS variable; see 'go help vcs'. For that usage, |
| // GOPRIVATE applies even in GOPATH mode. In that case, it matches import paths |
| // instead of module paths. |
| // |
| // The 'go env -w' command (see 'go help env') can be used to set these variables |
| // for future go command invocations. |
| // |
| // |
| // Testing flags |
| // |
| // The 'go test' command takes both flags that apply to 'go test' itself |
| // and flags that apply to the resulting test binary. |
| // |
| // Several of the flags control profiling and write an execution profile |
| // suitable for "go tool pprof"; run "go tool pprof -h" for more |
| // information. The --alloc_space, --alloc_objects, and --show_bytes |
| // options of pprof control how the information is presented. |
| // |
| // The following flags are recognized by the 'go test' command and |
| // control the execution of any test: |
| // |
| // -bench regexp |
| // Run only those benchmarks matching a regular expression. |
| // By default, no benchmarks are run. |
| // To run all benchmarks, use '-bench .' or '-bench=.'. |
| // The regular expression is split by unbracketed slash (/) |
| // characters into a sequence of regular expressions, and each |
| // part of a benchmark's identifier must match the corresponding |
| // element in the sequence, if any. Possible parents of matches |
| // are run with b.N=1 to identify sub-benchmarks. For example, |
| // given -bench=X/Y, top-level benchmarks matching X are run |
| // with b.N=1 to find any sub-benchmarks matching Y, which are |
| // then run in full. |
| // |
| // -benchtime t |
| // Run enough iterations of each benchmark to take t, specified |
| // as a time.Duration (for example, -benchtime 1h30s). |
| // The default is 1 second (1s). |
| // The special syntax Nx means to run the benchmark N times |
| // (for example, -benchtime 100x). |
| // |
| // -count n |
| // Run each test and benchmark n times (default 1). |
| // If -cpu is set, run n times for each GOMAXPROCS value. |
| // Examples are always run once. |
| // |
| // -cover |
| // Enable coverage analysis. |
| // Note that because coverage works by annotating the source |
| // code before compilation, compilation and test failures with |
| // coverage enabled may report line numbers that don't correspond |
| // to the original sources. |
| // |
| // -covermode set,count,atomic |
| // Set the mode for coverage analysis for the package[s] |
| // being tested. The default is "set" unless -race is enabled, |
| // in which case it is "atomic". |
| // The values: |
| // set: bool: does this statement run? |
| // count: int: how many times does this statement run? |
| // atomic: int: count, but correct in multithreaded tests; |
| // significantly more expensive. |
| // Sets -cover. |
| // |
| // -coverpkg pattern1,pattern2,pattern3 |
| // Apply coverage analysis in each test to packages matching the patterns. |
| // The default is for each test to analyze only the package being tested. |
| // See 'go help packages' for a description of package patterns. |
| // Sets -cover. |
| // |
| // -cpu 1,2,4 |
| // Specify a list of GOMAXPROCS values for which the tests or |
| // benchmarks should be executed. The default is the current value |
| // of GOMAXPROCS. |
| // |
| // -failfast |
| // Do not start new tests after the first test failure. |
| // |
| // -list regexp |
| // List tests, benchmarks, or examples matching the regular expression. |
| // No tests, benchmarks or examples will be run. This will only |
| // list top-level tests. No subtest or subbenchmarks will be shown. |
| // |
| // -parallel n |
| // Allow parallel execution of test functions that call t.Parallel. |
| // The value of this flag is the maximum number of tests to run |
| // simultaneously; by default, it is set to the value of GOMAXPROCS. |
| // Note that -parallel only applies within a single test binary. |
| // The 'go test' command may run tests for different packages |
| // in parallel as well, according to the setting of the -p flag |
| // (see 'go help build'). |
| // |
| // -run regexp |
| // Run only those tests and examples matching the regular expression. |
| // For tests, the regular expression is split by unbracketed slash (/) |
| // characters into a sequence of regular expressions, and each part |
| // of a test's identifier must match the corresponding element in |
| // the sequence, if any. Note that possible parents of matches are |
| // run too, so that -run=X/Y matches and runs and reports the result |
| // of all tests matching X, even those without sub-tests matching Y, |
| // because it must run them to look for those sub-tests. |
| // |
| // -short |
| // Tell long-running tests to shorten their run time. |
| // It is off by default but set during all.bash so that installing |
| // the Go tree can run a sanity check but not spend time running |
| // exhaustive tests. |
| // |
| // -timeout d |
| // If a test binary runs longer than duration d, panic. |
| // If d is 0, the timeout is disabled. |
| // The default is 10 minutes (10m). |
| // |
| // -v |
| // Verbose output: log all tests as they are run. Also print all |
| // text from Log and Logf calls even if the test succeeds. |
| // |
| // -vet list |
| // Configure the invocation of "go vet" during "go test" |
| // to use the comma-separated list of vet checks. |
| // If list is empty, "go test" runs "go vet" with a curated list of |
| // checks believed to be always worth addressing. |
| // If list is "off", "go test" does not run "go vet" at all. |
| // |
| // The following flags are also recognized by 'go test' and can be used to |
| // profile the tests during execution: |
| // |
| // -benchmem |
| // Print memory allocation statistics for benchmarks. |
| // |
| // -blockprofile block.out |
| // Write a goroutine blocking profile to the specified file |
| // when all tests are complete. |
| // Writes test binary as -c would. |
| // |
| // -blockprofilerate n |
| // Control the detail provided in goroutine blocking profiles by |
| // calling runtime.SetBlockProfileRate with n. |
| // See 'go doc runtime.SetBlockProfileRate'. |
| // The profiler aims to sample, on average, one blocking event every |
| // n nanoseconds the program spends blocked. By default, |
| // if -test.blockprofile is set without this flag, all blocking events |
| // are recorded, equivalent to -test.blockprofilerate=1. |
| // |
| // -coverprofile cover.out |
| // Write a coverage profile to the file after all tests have passed. |
| // Sets -cover. |
| // |
| // -cpuprofile cpu.out |
| // Write a CPU profile to the specified file before exiting. |
| // Writes test binary as -c would. |
| // |
| // -memprofile mem.out |
| // Write an allocation profile to the file after all tests have passed. |
| // Writes test binary as -c would. |
| // |
| // -memprofilerate n |
| // Enable more precise (and expensive) memory allocation profiles by |
| // setting runtime.MemProfileRate. See 'go doc runtime.MemProfileRate'. |
| // To profile all memory allocations, use -test.memprofilerate=1. |
| // |
| // -mutexprofile mutex.out |
| // Write a mutex contention profile to the specified file |
| // when all tests are complete. |
| // Writes test binary as -c would. |
| // |
| // -mutexprofilefraction n |
| // Sample 1 in n stack traces of goroutines holding a |
| // contended mutex. |
| // |
| // -outputdir directory |
| // Place output files from profiling in the specified directory, |
| // by default the directory in which "go test" is running. |
| // |
| // -trace trace.out |
| // Write an execution trace to the specified file before exiting. |
| // |
| // Each of these flags is also recognized with an optional 'test.' prefix, |
| // as in -test.v. When invoking the generated test binary (the result of |
| // 'go test -c') directly, however, the prefix is mandatory. |
| // |
| // The 'go test' command rewrites or removes recognized flags, |
| // as appropriate, both before and after the optional package list, |
| // before invoking the test binary. |
| // |
| // For instance, the command |
| // |
| // go test -v -myflag testdata -cpuprofile=prof.out -x |
| // |
| // will compile the test binary and then run it as |
| // |
| // pkg.test -test.v -myflag testdata -test.cpuprofile=prof.out |
| // |
| // (The -x flag is removed because it applies only to the go command's |
| // execution, not to the test itself.) |
| // |
| // The test flags that generate profiles (other than for coverage) also |
| // leave the test binary in pkg.test for use when analyzing the profiles. |
| // |
| // When 'go test' runs a test binary, it does so from within the |
| // corresponding package's source code directory. Depending on the test, |
| // it may be necessary to do the same when invoking a generated test |
| // binary directly. |
| // |
| // The command-line package list, if present, must appear before any |
| // flag not known to the go test command. Continuing the example above, |
| // the package list would have to appear before -myflag, but could appear |
| // on either side of -v. |
| // |
| // When 'go test' runs in package list mode, 'go test' caches successful |
| // package test results to avoid unnecessary repeated running of tests. To |
| // disable test caching, use any test flag or argument other than the |
| // cacheable flags. The idiomatic way to disable test caching explicitly |
| // is to use -count=1. |
| // |
| // To keep an argument for a test binary from being interpreted as a |
| // known flag or a package name, use -args (see 'go help test') which |
| // passes the remainder of the command line through to the test binary |
| // uninterpreted and unaltered. |
| // |
| // For instance, the command |
| // |
| // go test -v -args -x -v |
| // |
| // will compile the test binary and then run it as |
| // |
| // pkg.test -test.v -x -v |
| // |
| // Similarly, |
| // |
| // go test -args math |
| // |
| // will compile the test binary and then run it as |
| // |
| // pkg.test math |
| // |
| // In the first example, the -x and the second -v are passed through to the |
| // test binary unchanged and with no effect on the go command itself. |
| // In the second example, the argument math is passed through to the test |
| // binary, instead of being interpreted as the package list. |
| // |
| // |
| // Testing functions |
| // |
| // The 'go test' command expects to find test, benchmark, and example functions |
| // in the "*_test.go" files corresponding to the package under test. |
| // |
| // A test function is one named TestXxx (where Xxx does not start with a |
| // lower case letter) and should have the signature, |
| // |
| // func TestXxx(t *testing.T) { ... } |
| // |
| // A benchmark function is one named BenchmarkXxx and should have the signature, |
| // |
| // func BenchmarkXxx(b *testing.B) { ... } |
| // |
| // An example function is similar to a test function but, instead of using |
| // *testing.T to report success or failure, prints output to os.Stdout. |
| // If the last comment in the function starts with "Output:" then the output |
| // is compared exactly against the comment (see examples below). If the last |
| // comment begins with "Unordered output:" then the output is compared to the |
| // comment, however the order of the lines is ignored. An example with no such |
| // comment is compiled but not executed. An example with no text after |
| // "Output:" is compiled, executed, and expected to produce no output. |
| // |
| // Godoc displays the body of ExampleXxx to demonstrate the use |
| // of the function, constant, or variable Xxx. An example of a method M with |
| // receiver type T or *T is named ExampleT_M. There may be multiple examples |
| // for a given function, constant, or variable, distinguished by a trailing _xxx, |
| // where xxx is a suffix not beginning with an upper case letter. |
| // |
| // Here is an example of an example: |
| // |
| // func ExamplePrintln() { |
| // Println("The output of\nthis example.") |
| // // Output: The output of |
| // // this example. |
| // } |
| // |
| // Here is another example where the ordering of the output is ignored: |
| // |
| // func ExamplePerm() { |
| // for _, value := range Perm(4) { |
| // fmt.Println(value) |
| // } |
| // |
| // // Unordered output: 4 |
| // // 2 |
| // // 1 |
| // // 3 |
| // // 0 |
| // } |
| // |
| // The entire test file is presented as the example when it contains a single |
| // example function, at least one other function, type, variable, or constant |
| // declaration, and no test or benchmark functions. |
| // |
| // See the documentation of the testing package for more information. |
| // |
| // |
| // Controlling version control with GOVCS |
| // |
| // The 'go get' command can run version control commands like git |
| // to download imported code. This functionality is critical to the decentralized |
| // Go package ecosystem, in which code can be imported from any server, |
| // but it is also a potential security problem, if a malicious server finds a |
| // way to cause the invoked version control command to run unintended code. |
| // |
| // To balance the functionality and security concerns, the 'go get' command |
| // by default will only use git and hg to download code from public servers. |
| // But it will use any known version control system (bzr, fossil, git, hg, svn) |
| // to download code from private servers, defined as those hosting packages |
| // matching the GOPRIVATE variable (see 'go help private'). The rationale behind |
| // allowing only Git and Mercurial is that these two systems have had the most |
| // attention to issues of being run as clients of untrusted servers. In contrast, |
| // Bazaar, Fossil, and Subversion have primarily been used in trusted, |
| // authenticated environments and are not as well scrutinized as attack surfaces. |
| // |
| // The version control command restrictions only apply when using direct version |
| // control access to download code. When downloading modules from a proxy, |
| // 'go get' uses the proxy protocol instead, which is always permitted. |
| // By default, the 'go get' command uses the Go module mirror (proxy.golang.org) |
| // for public packages and only falls back to version control for private |
| // packages or when the mirror refuses to serve a public package (typically for |
| // legal reasons). Therefore, clients can still access public code served from |
| // Bazaar, Fossil, or Subversion repositories by default, because those downloads |
| // use the Go module mirror, which takes on the security risk of running the |
| // version control commands, using a custom sandbox. |
| // |
| // The GOVCS variable can be used to change the allowed version control systems |
| // for specific packages (identified by a module or import path). |
| // The GOVCS variable applies both when using modules and when using GOPATH. |
| // When using modules, the patterns match against the module path. |
| // When using GOPATH, the patterns match against the import path |
| // corresponding to the root of the version control repository. |
| // |
| // The general form of the GOVCS setting is a comma-separated list of |
| // pattern:vcslist rules. The pattern is a glob pattern that must match |
| // one or more leading elements of the module or import path. The vcslist |
| // is a pipe-separated list of allowed version control commands, or "all" |
| // to allow use of any known command, or "off" to allow nothing. |
| // The earliest matching pattern in the list applies, even if later patterns |
| // might also match. |
| // |
| // For example, consider: |
| // |
| // GOVCS=github.com:git,evil.com:off,*:git|hg |
| // |
| // With this setting, code with an module or import path beginning with |
| // github.com/ can only use git; paths on evil.com cannot use any version |
| // control command, and all other paths (* matches everything) can use |
| // only git or hg. |
| // |
| // The special patterns "public" and "private" match public and private |
| // module or import paths. A path is private if it matches the GOPRIVATE |
| // variable; otherwise it is public. |
| // |
| // If no rules in the GOVCS variable match a particular module or import path, |
| // the 'go get' command applies its default rule, which can now be summarized |
| // in GOVCS notation as 'public:git|hg,private:all'. |
| // |
| // To allow unfettered use of any version control system for any package, use: |
| // |
| // GOVCS=*:all |
| // |
| // To disable all use of version control, use: |
| // |
| // GOVCS=*:off |
| // |
| // The 'go env -w' command (see 'go help env') can be used to set the GOVCS |
| // variable for future go command invocations. |
| // |
