internal/godoc/codec: encoding structs

This CL contains both support (in codec.go) and generated code (in
generate.go) for encoding structs.

Structs are encoded using the `start` and `end` codes, with a list of
(field, value) pairs between them. Fields are represented by a number,
currently the related to index in the list of fields exposed by the
reflect package. Using a number rather than the field name takes up
less space, and lets us write an efficient switch statement to decode
the fields. But it can cause a problem if a new field is added or
existing fields are rearranged, which we will deal with in a later CL.

If the decoder doesn't know a field number, then a new field was added
since the decoder was built. In that case we abort the decoding. In
the next CL, we will instead skip over the unknown field.

Pkg.go.dev

A site for discovering Go packages

Pkg.go.dev is a website for discovering and evaluating Go packages and modules.

You can check it out at https://pkg.go.dev.

Roadmap

Pkg.go.dev launched in November 2019, and is currently under active development by the Go team.

Here's what we are currently working on:

  • Design updates: We have some design changes planned for pkg.go.dev, to address UX feedback that we have received. You can expect a more cohesive search and navigation experience coming soon. We plan to share these designs for feedback once they are ready.

  • Godoc.org redirect: Longer term, we are working towards redirecting godoc.org traffic to pkg.go.dev. We know that there are features available on godoc.org that users want to see on pkg.go.dev, and we want to ensure that we address these. We’ve been keeping track of issues related to redirecting godoc.org traffic on Go issue #39144. These issues will be prioritized in the next few months. We also plan to continue improving our license detection algorithm.

  • Search improvements: We’ll be improving our search experience based on feedback in Go issue #37810, to make it easier for users to find the dependencies they are looking for and make better decisions around which ones to import.

We encourage everyone to begin using pkg.go.dev today for all of their needs and to file feedback! You can redirect all of your requests from godoc.org to pkg.go.dev, by clicking Always use pkg.go.dev at the top of any page on godoc.org.

Issues

If you want to report a bug or have a feature suggestion, please first check the known issues to see if your issue is already being discussed. If an issue does not already exist, feel free to file an issue.

For answers to frequently asked questions, see go.dev/about.

You can also chat with us on the #tools slack channel on the Gophers slack.
