This layer adds extensive support for go.
- gofmt/goimports on file save
- Auto-completion using go-autocomplete (with the
auto-completion
layer) - Source analysis using go-guru
- Linting with flycheck’s built-in checkers or flycheck-gometalinter
- Coverage profile visualization
You will need gocode
and godef
:
go get -u -v github.com/nsf/gocode
go get -u -v github.com/rogpeppe/godef
go get -u -v golang.org/x/tools/cmd/guru
go get -u -v golang.org/x/tools/cmd/gorename
go get -u -v golang.org/x/tools/cmd/goimports
If you wish to use gometalinter
set the value of go-use-gometalinter
to t:
(go :variables go-use-gometalinter t)
and install the tool:
go get -u -v github.com/alecthomas/gometalinter
gometalinter --install --update
For more information read gometalinter README.md and flycheck-gometalinter README.md
Make sure that gocode
executable is in your PATH. For information about
setting up $PATH
, check out the corresponding section in the FAQ (SPC h SPC
$PATH RET
).
For best results, make sure that the auto-completion
and syntax-checking
layers are enabled as well.
To use this configuration layer, add it to your ~/.spacemacs
. You will need to
add go
to the existing dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
list in this
file.
By default, go buffers are run through gofmt
on save. To use a different
formatter, set the value of gofmt-command
, e.g.
(setq gofmt-command "goimports")
or
(go :variables gofmt-command "goimports")
By default, the tab width in Go mode is 8 spaces. To use a different value set
the layer variable go-tab-width
, e.g.
(go :variables go-tab-width 4)
If you’re using gocheck
in your project you can use the
go-use-gocheck-for-testing
variable to enable suite testing and to get single
function testing to work.
go-coverage-display-buffer-func
controls how go-coverage
should display
the coverage buffer. See =display-buffer= for a list of possible functions.
The default value is display-buffer-reuse-window
.
Go Oracle has been deprecated as of October 1, 2016, it’s replacement is go-guru
.
If you would like to use the goguru
bindings in your work, you will need to
install it, and in your project you will need to set the scope with SPC m f o
.
The scope is a comma separated set of packages, and go
’s recursive operator is
supported. In addition, you can prefix with -
to exclude a package from
searching.
In addition, GOPATH
must be set prior to go-guru
initialization.
