Use lsp-mode. gopls is built in now as a client, so no special config is necessary. You first must install gopls
and put it somewhere in your PATH
. Here is an example (assuming you are using use-package) to get you started:
(use-package lsp-mode :commands (lsp lsp-deferred)) (add-hook 'go-mode-hook #'lsp-deferred) ;; optional - provides fancier overlays (use-package lsp-ui :commands lsp-ui-mode) ;; if you use company-mode for completion (otherwise, complete-at-point works out of the box): (use-package company-lsp :commands company-lsp)
Common errors:
M-x getenv <RET> PATH <RET>
to see if your PATH is set in Emacs. If not, you can try starting Emacs from your terminal, using this package, or moving your shell config from .bashrc into .bashenv (or .zshenv).lsp-mode
, lsp-ui
and company-lsp
are up-to-date, and make sure lsp-go
is not installed.To troubleshoot, look in the *lsp-log*
buffer for errors.
