0.6.66 - 2nd October, 2017

Multi Root support when using VS Code Insiders

We now have Multi Root support for Go. PR 1221 Please note:

  • The settings at Folder level takes precedence over the ones at the Workspace level which in turn take precedence over the ones at the User level
  • You can have the different roots in the multi-root mode use different GOPATHs. The experimental language server feature is not supported in such cases though.
  • All current Go related features that refer to "workspace" will refer to the individual roots in the multi root mode. For example: Build/lint/vet/test workspace or Go to Symbol in workspace.
  • Give it a try and log any issues that you find in the vscode-go repo

Auto-completion improvements

  • Nuruddin Ashr (@uudashr)
    • Auto-completion for unimported packages that are newly installed/built will now show up without the need for reloading VS Code.

      • main when current file is main.go or there exists a main.go file in current folder
      • The folder name when the current file is internal_test.go
      • The folder name with _test when current file is a test file
      • If the folder name in above cases has - or ., then what appears after the - or . is suggested.
  • Alexander Kohler (@alexkohler)
    • A new setting go.useCodeSnippetsOnFunctionSuggestWithoutType is introduced. This allows completions of functions with their parameter signature but without the parameter types. Feature Request 1241
  • Miklós @kmikiy
    • 3 New snippets for the Log methods from the testing package

Improvements around running and debugging tests

  • Chase Adams (@chaseadamsio)
    • You can now run tests from unsaved files. Fixes Bug 1225
  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
    • Changes done to coverage options and decorators in settings now apply immediately without the need for moving to another file and back. Fixes Bug 1171
    • The Run Test and Debug Test codelens react to change in the codelens setting immediately without the need for moving to another file and back. Fixes Bug 1172

      • Show test coverage even if files are outside of GOPATH. Fixes Issue #1122
      • Decouple running test coverage on save from running build/lint/test on save. Fixes the issue where the problems view was not getting updated until go.coverOnSave was disabled.
    • Debugging Improvements
      • No need to set GOPATH in debug configuration in the launch.json file anymore. When no GOPATH is provided this way, the debug adapter will now infer the GOPATH based on the path of the file/package being debugged. This fixes Issue #840.
      • The debug code lens will now honor the go.buildFlags, go.buildTags and go.testFlags settings. Fixes Issue #1117
      • Fix issue with stepping over standard library code when remote debugging in Windows. Fixes Issue #1178
    • Other Bug Fixes

0.6.63 - 26th July, 2017

Features

  • Ian Chiles (@fortytw2)
    • Option to use megacheck as a linting tool which can have significantly better performance than gometalinter, while only supporting a subset of the tools. Use the setting go.lintTool to try this.
  • alexandrevez (@alexandrevez)
    • Option to highlight gutters rather than full text for code coverage. Use the new setting go.coverageDecorator to try this.
  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a) & Marwan Sulaiman (@marwan-at-work)
    • Browse packages and go files with new command Go: Browse Packages. Feature Request 330
      • If cursor is on an import statement, then files from the imported package will be shown in the quick pick control
      • Else, all packages are shown in the quick pick control. Select any and corresponding Go files will be shown next.
      • Selecting any of the Go files, will open the file in a new editor.
  • Saud Khan (@bidrohi)
    • Print import paths of Go tools as they get installed. PR 1032
  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
    • Prompt to update dependent Go tools when there is a change in the Go version. Feature Request 797
    • Better user experience when dependent Go tools are missing. Feature Request 998
      • Prompts will only show up for tools that are used for features that are explicitly executed by the user. Eg: Rename, Generate Unit Tests, Modify tags. And not for features that get triggered behind the scenes like linting, hover or format on save.
      • When the prompts do show up, closing them will ensure that they wont show up for the duration of the current session of VS Code.

    • Go: Generate Interface Stubs should work when interface is prefixed with package path

0.6.62 - 9th June, 2017

Features

  • Jamie Stackhouse (@itsjamie)
    • New command Go: Generate interface stub to generate stubs that implement given interface using impl. PR 939
      • When the command is run, you are prompted to provide interface name. Eg: f *File io.Closer
      • The stubs are then generated where the cursor is in the editor.
  • Guilherme Oenning (@goenning)
    • New setting go.testEnvFile to configure the location of a file that would have environment variables to use while running tests. PR 971
      • File contents should be of the form key=value.
      • Values from the existing setting go.test.EnvVars will override the above
      • These environment variables will also be used by the "Debug Test" codelens
      • When debugging using the debug viewlet or pressing F5, the above will not be used. Continue to use the env and/or envFile property in the debug configurations in the launch.json file.
  • Ole (@vapourismo)
    • You can now run build/lint/vet on the whole workspace instead of just the current package on file save. PR 1023
      • To enable this, the settings go.buildOnSave, go.lintOnSave and go.vetOnSave now take values package, workspace or off instead of the previous true/false.
      • These features are backward compatible and so if you are still using true/false for these settings, they will work as they did before, but you will get a warning in your settings file.
  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
    • Better build performance when working on main packages and test files by using the -i flag.
    • Better linting experience while running gometalinter by using the --aggregate flag which aggregates similar errors from multiple linters.

Bug Fixes

  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
    • Fix for Bug 529 Code completion for unimported packages now works on unsaved file after deleting imports.
    • Fix for Bug 922 Go to Symbol in File feature now includes symbols from unsaved file contents. PR 929
    • Fix for Bug 878 Debugging now works on current file even when there is no folder/workspace open. Commit 42646afc
    • Fix for Bug 947 Mac users using the latest delve from master may see that all env variables are empty while debugging their code. This is due to delve using the --backend=lldb option in Mac by default. You can now change this default value by setting the backend property to native in the launch.json file. Commit 4beecf1. Root cause is expected to be fixed in delve itself and is being tracked in derekparker/delve/818

    • Add live error feedback using gotype-live which is gotype with support for unsaved file contents. PR 903
      • New setting go.liveErrors controls this feature.
      • Set "go.liveErrors": { "enabled": true } to enable this feature
      • Edit the delay property in "go.liveErrors": { "enabled": true, "delay": 500 } to update the delay (in milliseconds) after which gotype-live would be run post a keystroke

  • Eon S. Jeon (@esjeon)

    • GOPATH from settings is now honored when users debug current file without having a launch.json file. PR 904
      • Note: Once you have a launch.json file, GOPATH from settings wont be read. You will need to set it in the env property as before

Editing improvements

  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
    • Use gomodifytags to add/remove tags on selected struct fields. PR 880
      • If there is no selection, then the whole struct under the cursor will be selected for the tag modification.
      • Go: Add Tags command adds tags configured in go.addTags setting to selected struct fields. By default, json tags are added. Examples:
        • To add xml tags, set go.addTags to {"tags": "xml"}
        • To add xml with cdata option, set go.addTags to {"tags": "xml", "options": "xml=cdata"}
        • To add both json and xml tags, set go.addTags to {"tags": "json,xml"}
      • Go: Remove Tags command removes tags configured in go.removeTags setting from selected struct fields.
        • By default, all tags are removed.
        • To remove only say xml tags, set go.removeTags to {"tags": "xml"}
      • To be prompted for tags instead of using the configured ones, set go.addTags and/or go.removeTags to {"promptForTags": true}
    • Fix rename issue when diff tool from Git or Cygwin are in the PATH in Windows. PR 866
    • Keywords are now supported in completion suggestions. PR 865

      • Press Ctrl+F5 or run the command Debug: Start Without Debugging to run using the currently selected launch configuration.
      • If you don't have a launch.json file, then the current file will be run.
      • Supported only for launch configs with type as debug and program that points to a Go file and not package
    • New envFile attribute in launch.json where you can provide a file with env variables to use while debugging. PR 849
    • Use current file's directory instead of folder opened in VS Code to debug in the default configurations. Commit 0915e50a

Tooling improvements

  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
    • New Setting go.languageServerFlags that will be passed while running the Go language server. PR 882
      • Set this to ["trace"] to see the traces from the language server in the output pane under the channel "go-langserver"

  • Re-publishing the extension from a non Windows machine as the fix for Bug 438 worked only on Windows machines. For details read the discussion in PR 838.

0.6.54 - 28th February, 2017

Tooling improvements

  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a) and Sourcegraph
    • A new setting go.useLanguageServer to use the Go language server from Sourcegraph for features like Hover, Definition, Find All References, Signature Help, Go to Symbol in File and Workspace. PR 750
      • This is an experimental feature and is not available in Windows yet.
      • If set to true, you will be prompted to install the Go language server. Once installed, you will have to reload VS Code window. The language server will then be run by the Go extension in the background to provide services needed for the above mentioned features.

GOPATH improvements

  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
    • Fix for Bug 623. ${workspaceRoot} and ~ are now supported in go.gopath and go.toolsGopath settings. PR 768
    • The default GOPATH used by Go 1.8 when none is set as environment variable is now supported by the extension as well. PR 820
  • Vincent Chinedu Okonkwo (@codmajik)
    • Added new setting go.inferGopath. When true GOPATH will be inferred from the path of the folder opened in VS Code. This will override the value from go.gopath setting as well as the GOPATH environment variable. PR 762

Debugging improvements

  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
    • Debug current file without a launch configuration file. Simply press F5 to start the debug session. A launch.json is still required to debug tests or for advanced debug configurations. PR 769
    • Launch configuration snippets are now available for common scenarios like debugging file/package or debugging a test package/function. These snippets can be used through IntelliSense when editing the launch.json file. PR 794
    • Fix for Bug 492. Now when there are build errors, starting a debug session will display the error instead of hanging. PR 774
  • Rob Lourens (@roblourens)
    • Fix for Bug 438. Now when you stop a debug session, all processes started by the session will be closed as well. PR 765
  • Suraj Barkale (@surajbarkale-dolby)
    • Fix for Bug 782. Helpful error messages when the program attribute in launch.json file is invalid or not a full path. PR 790
  • F0zi (@f0zi)
    • Fix for Bug 689. When debugging against a remote machine, paths anywhere under the GOPATH will be correctly mapped so you can set breakpoints in them. Previously only paths next to the program could be debugged. PR 742

Testing improvements

  • Oleg Bulatov (@dmage)
    • Added new setting go.testOnSave. When true, all tests in the current package will be run on saving a Go file. The status of the tests will be shown in the status bar at the bottom of the VS Code window. It is not advised to have this on when you have Auto Save enabled. PR 810
  • Jeff Willette (@deltaskelta)
    • Test output is no longer verbose by default. Add -v to the go.testFlags to get verbose output. PR 817

0.6.53 - 30th January, 2017

Installation improvements

  • Sam Herrmann (@samherrmann), Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
    • A new setting go.toolsGopath for providing an alternate location to install all the Go tools that the extension depends on, if you don't want them cluttering your GOPATH. PR 351 and PR 737.
      • This is useful when you work on different GOPATHs.
      • Remember to run Go: Install Tools command to install the tools to the new location.
  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
    • All the "Install tool" options (the pop ups you see) and the Go: Install Tools command now support gometalinter if it is your chosen linting tool. PR 735.
      • Since gometalinter internally installs linters and expects them to be in the user's GOPATH, gometalinter will get installed to your GOPATH and not the alternate location specified in go.toolsGopath

Build improvements

  • Matt Aimonetti (@mattetti)
    • While building, we now use the -i flag (for non main packages) which installs dependent packages, which in turn get used in subsequent builds resulting in faster builds in bigger workspaces. PR 718
  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
    • Build errors with no line numbers (for eg. Import cycle) are now displayed in the output window and will be mapped to the first line of the file. PR 740

Test improvements

  • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)

    • A new setting go.testFlags that can be used to run tests. If null, go.buildFlags will be used. PR 482

    • Customize flags for each of the test command by using different keybindings. PR 482. In the below example, ctrl+shift+t is bound to run the tests in current file with -short flag. The commands here can be go.test.package, go.test.file or go.test.cursor.

      {
    "key": "ctrl+shift+t",
    "command": "go.test.file",
    "args": {
        "flags": ["-short"]
    },
    "when": "editorTextFocus"
}

    • New toggle command Go: Toggle Test File that lets you toggle between your Go file and the corresponding test file. Previous commands Go: Open Test File and Go: Open Implementation For Test File have been deprecated in favor of this new command. PR 739. You can add a keyboard binding to this as below:

      {
    "key": "ctrl+shift+t",
    "command": "go.toggle.test.file",
    "when": "editorTextFocus && editorLangId == 'go'"
}

    • If current file is not a test file, show error message while running test commands, instead of displaying success message. Fixes #303
