| // |
| // 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] [-i] [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, build treats |
| // them as a list of source files specifying a single package. |
| // |
| // 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. |
| // |
| // When compiling packages, build ignores files that end in '_test.go'. |
| // |
| // The -o flag, only allowed when compiling a single package, |
| // forces build to write the resulting executable or object |
| // to the named output file, instead of the default behavior described |
| // in the last two paragraphs. |
| // |
| // The -i flag installs the packages that are dependencies of the target. |
| // |
| // 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 and windows/amd64. |
| // -msan |
| // enable interoperation with memory sanitizer. |
| // Supported only on linux/amd64, linux/arm64 |
| // and only with Clang/LLVM as the host C compiler. |
| // -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 |
| // link against shared libraries previously created with |
| // -buildmode=shared. |
| // -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 space-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. |
| // -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 [-i] [-r] [-n] [-x] [-cache] [-testcache] [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. |
| // |
| // Specifically, 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. |
| // |
| // 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: |
| // -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. |
| // -u |
| // Show documentation for unexported as well as exported |
| // symbols, methods, and fields. |
| // |
| // |
| // Print Go environment information |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go env [-json] [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. |
| // |
| // 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. |
| // |
| // 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. |
| // |
| // 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, 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. |
| // |
| // 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'. |
| // |
| // |
| // Download and install packages and dependencies |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go get [-d] [-f] [-fix] [-insecure] [-t] [-u] [-v] [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. |
| // |
| // 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'. |
| // |
| // See also: go build, go install, go clean. |
| // |
| // |
| // Compile and install packages and dependencies |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go install [-i] [build flags] [packages] |
| // |
| // Install compiles and installs the packages named by the import paths. |
| // |
| // The -i flag installs the dependencies of the named packages as well. |
| // |
| // 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 |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go list [-deps] [-e] [-f format] [-json] [-test] [build flags] [packages] |
| // |
| // List lists the packages named by the import paths, one per line. |
| // |
| // 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 |

| // |
| // 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 imports 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 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 -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. |
| // |
| // 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 -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]". |

| // |
| // 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, |
| // 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_nacl_386_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'. |

| // 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', 'nilfunc', and |
| // 'printf'. 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. |
| // |
| // 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. |
| // |
| // -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 |
| // |
| // Version prints the Go version, as reported by runtime.Version. |
| // |
| // |
| // Report likely mistakes in packages |
| // |
| // Usage: |
| // |
| // go vet [-n] [-x] [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'. |
| // |
| // The -n flag prints commands that would be executed. |
| // The -x flag prints commands as they are executed. |
| // |
| // 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 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. |
| // |
| // |
| // 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, |
| // or .S 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, examine a few different |
| // environment variables. For many of these, you can see the default |
| // value of on your system by running 'go env NAME', where NAME is the |
| // name of the variable. |
| // |
| // 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. |
| // GOOS |
| // The operating system for which to compile code. |
| // Examples are linux, darwin, windows, netbsd. |
| // GOPATH |
| // For more details see: 'go help gopath'. |
| // GORACE |

| // The directory where the go command will write |
| // temporary source files, packages, and binaries. |
| // GOTOOLDIR |

| // Defined by Git. A colon-separated list of schemes that are allowed to be used |
| // with git fetch/clone. If set, any scheme not explicitly mentioned will be |
| // considered insecure by 'go get'. |
| // |
| // |
| // 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 |
| // 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. |
| // |
| // Non-test Go source files can also include a //go:binary-only-package |
| // comment, indicating that the package sources are included |
| // for documentation only and must not be used to build the |
| // package binary. This enables distribution of Go packages in |
| // their compiled form alone. Even binary-only packages require |
| // accurate import blocks listing required dependencies, so that |
| // those dependencies can be supplied when linking the resulting |
| // command. |
| // |
| // |
| // 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. |
| // |
| // 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. |
| // |
| // |
| // 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 |
| // 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 "git", "hg", "svn", etc, |
| // |
| // 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. |
| // |
| // New downloaded packages are written to the first directory listed in the GOPATH |
| // environment variable (For more details see: 'go help gopath'). |
| // |
| // The go command attempts to download the version of the |
| // package appropriate for the Go release being used. |
| // Run 'go help get' for more. |
| // |
| // 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. |
| // |
| // See https://golang.org/s/go14customimport for details. |
| // |
| // |
| // Package lists |
| // |
| // 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 package directories found in all the GOPATH |
| // trees. For example, 'go list all' lists all the packages on the local |
| // system. |
| // |
| // - "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". |
| // |
| // |
| // 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). |
| // |
| // -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. |
