* core-customization: improved SAFE variable handling - SAFE can either be a function or t. - When it's t, use a default validation function `(lambda (val) (validate-value val TYPE t))` - When it's a function, use the supplied function. * Fixed bugs in go and groovy layer In almost any cases, it's better to supply `t` instead of a function, to `SAFE` argument of `spacemacs|defc`. For example, ```elisp (spacemacs|defc go-use-gocheck-for-testing nil "If using gocheck for testing when running the tests -check.f will be used instead of -run to specify the test that will be ran. Gocheck is mandatory for testing suites." 'boolean nil #'booleanp) ``` If its value is nil, it evaluate to `nil`, which means that `nil` is not a safe value for `go-use-gocheck-for-testing` local variable. But clearly it is. * core-customization: improved SAFE variable handling - Added a function `spacemacs-customization//get-variable-validator`. This function is designed to be used with `safe-local-variable` property of spacemacs custom variables. See details in the docstring. ```elisp (put 'FOO 'safe-local-variable (apply-partially 'spacemacs-customization//get-variable-validator 'FOO)) ``` - This is better than a lambda since `apply-partially` returns a compiled function. (Though the performace gain may be tiny.) - This is better than simply calling `validate-value`, because it returns nil when value is nil. But sometimes nil is a valid value.

Go layer
Description
This layer adds extensive support for the Go programming language.
Features:
- Run gofmt / goimports on file save (see Autoformat)
- Auto-completion
- Source analysis using go-guru (see Guru)
- Refactoring with godoctor
- Edit struct field tags with gomodifytags
- Syntax checking with flycheck's built-in checkers or golangci-lint (see Linting)
- Test generation via go-gen-test (see Tests)
- Coverage profile visualization (see Coverage)
- List packages faster with gopkgs
- Fill a structure with default values using the fillstruct
- Gopls backend support (see LSP backend)
- Interactive debugger with LSP using dap-mode
Install
Layer
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.
Choosing a backend
Basically you have to choose between multiple language backends. This choice defines mainly which kind of IDE features spacemacs can deliver.
Alternatively if non is set the lsp
backend will be automatically
chosen if the layer lsp
is used otherwise go-mode
will be used.
For best results, make sure that the auto-completion
and syntax-checking
layers are enabled as well.
LSP (gopls)
This is the official IDE configuration for the current go versions. It includes auto-completion and syntax checking support.
It is based on an external development server written in go itself, which must be installed separately before this layer can be used.
Starting and stopping the server is done by emacs so you normally won't notice it happen.
Detailed bindings and configuration can be found in lsp layer description.
To choose this backend set the layer variable go-backend
:
(go :variables go-backend 'lsp)
You also need to install gopls as the language server implementation
and add it to your PATH
. If your go environment is properly
prepared you can simply run below command to install:
GO111MODULE=on go get -v golang.org/x/tools/gopls@latest
Debugger
Using the dap
layer you'll get access to a graphical debugger integration.
To do so add the layer dap
to your dotfile. For a complete list of key bindings
see the dap layer description.
go-mode (deprecated)
This was the old elisp based go backend. Since the introduction of
go-modules
this has stopped working and will not be patched.
To choose it nevertheless set the layer variable go-backend
:
(go :variables go-backend 'go-mode)
You will also need the following dependencies for auto-completion:
go get -u -v github.com/mdempsky/gocode
go get -u -v github.com/zmb3/gogetdoc
Documentation lookup binary
For auto-completion there are actually two choices. First there is the classic
gocode
. This has been around for quite a long time now, however gocode
has many
shortcomings, like not being able to show documentation for built-in objects or
being fully dependent on installed binary files to provide its suggestions.
A more modern and complete solution is provided by gogetdoc
, which is able to
precisely detect all documentations in your go projects independently from where
they have been added. This is also the recommended choice from go-mode.el
.
To choose gocode
nothing more needs to be done. To use gogetdoc
you need to set
the layer variable:
(go :variables godoc-at-point-function 'godoc-gogetdoc)
If you choose to use gocode
there are some suggestions to improve its results.
As gocode
uses the output from installed binary files to provide its suggestions.
You have a few options to ensure you always get up to date suggestions:
- Run
go install ./...
in your package directory when you make a file change. - Run
gocode set autobuild true
to have gocode attempt to rungo install ./...
for you. - You can configure your task runner to run the
go install ./...
command on every file change.
Binary dependencies
This section lists dependencies which are independent of the
language backend, most are installed directly via go get
:
GO111MODULE=on CGO_ENABLED=0 go get -v -trimpath -ldflags '-s -w' github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/cmd/golangci-lint
go get -u -v golang.org/x/tools/cmd/godoc
go get -u -v golang.org/x/tools/cmd/goimports
go get -u -v golang.org/x/tools/cmd/gorename
go get -u -v golang.org/x/tools/cmd/guru
go get -u -v github.com/cweill/gotests/...
go get -u -v github.com/davidrjenni/reftools/cmd/fillstruct
go get -u -v github.com/fatih/gomodifytags
go get -u -v github.com/godoctor/godoctor
go get -u -v github.com/haya14busa/gopkgs/cmd/gopkgs
go get -u -v github.com/josharian/impl
go get -u -v github.com/rogpeppe/godef
Configuration
Execution
By default, the go run command is go run
. If you want to use a different
command or run with environment variables, set the layer variable
go-run-command
.
(go :variables go-run-command "ENV_VAR=foo go run")
To run the current main
package with command line arguments, set the value of
go-run-args
as a file local variable, e.g.
// Local Variables:
// go-run-args: "--output run.log"
// End:
Indentation
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 .editorconfig
in your project, set the value to nil to avoid
conflicts, i.e.
(go :variables go-tab-width nil)
Autoformat
To run gofmt
before save, set the value to a non-nil, i.e.
(go :variables go-format-before-save t)
To use a different formatter, set the value of gofmt-command
, e.g.
(go :variables gofmt-command "goimports")
Linting
If you wish to use golangci-lint
, set the following layer variable to non-nil:
(go :variables go-use-golangci-lint t)
Check golangci-lint and flycheck-golangci-lint for more details.
Please remember that without properly configured flycheck-golangci-lint
variables golangci-lint
may not run as expected. The recommended way is to use a .golangi.yml
in your project.
But if this is not possible you can also set global command line flags for golangci-lint
.
Especially important is the selection of which linters to run and whether to lint test files too.
It may happen from time to time that golangci-lint
is not able to parse a buffers content
properly. This normally happens when there are basic errors in the file which prevent more
complex analytics to run. In this case a set of errors will be shown at the top of the
current buffer which are not properly parsed by flycheck. Spacemacs still shows basic
errors in your buffer. When these have been fixed golangci-lint
will regenerate
and further diagnostic data will be made available.
When this happens please report a bug to `golangci-lint` they are working hard to fix these.
Tests
If you're using gocheck
or testify
in your project you can use the
go-use-gocheck-for-testing
or go-use-testify-for-testing
variable to enable
suite testing and to get single function testing to work.
Tests are run in a compilation buffer displayed in a popup window that can be
closed by pressing C-g
from any other window. The variable go-test-buffer-name
can be customized to set the output buffer name.
By default, the go test command is go test
. If you want to use a different
command or test with environment variables, set the layer variable
go-test-command
.
(go :variables go-test-command "ENV_VAR=foo go test")
To provide additional arguments to go test
, specify go-use-test-args
.
(go :variables go-use-test-args "-race -timeout 10s")
Coverage
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
.
Guru
If you would like to use the Go Guru
bindings in your work, 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 it with -
to exclude a package from searching.
