  • v0.6.62 Changes

    June 09, 2017

    ๐Ÿ”‹ 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.

    โœ… Test Coverage

    • Thomas Bradford (@kode4food)
      • New setting go.coverageOptions to control whether you want to highlight only covered code or only uncovered code or both when code coverage is run. PR 945
    • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
      • The command Go: Test Coverage In Current Package is renamed to Go: Toggle Test Coverage In Current Package and it does exactly what the name suggests. Toggles test coverage. Commit cc661daf

    ๐Ÿ› 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 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
    • Tyler Bunnell (@tylerb)
      • Fix for Bug 943 Live error reporting now works across multiple files in the current package, mapping errors to the correct files. PR 923

  • v0.6.59 Changes

    April 04, 2017

    • Tyler Bunnell (@tylerb)

      • 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

    • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)

      • --config flag for gometalinter now supports the use of ${workspaceRoot} and ~ that allows users to provide config file path relative to workspace or home directory respectively. PR 909
      • New command Go: Test All Packages in Workspace to run tests from all packages in the workspace.

  • v0.6.57 Changes

    March 30, 2017

    ๐Ÿ›  Fix for Bug 892 which breaks build when the user has multiple GOPATHs and the Go project being worked on is not the first one among the multiple GOPATHs. Commit d417fd6

  • v0.6.56 Changes

    March 29, 2017

    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
      • Suggestion items to import packages disabled in single line import statements and the line with package definition where they do not make sense. PR 860

    Debugging improvements

    • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
      • Support to build and run your Go file. PR 881
        • 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"
        • Set this to ["trace", "logfile", "path to a text file to log the trace] to log the traces and errors from the language server to a file.

    • netroby @netroby
      • Go: Install Tools command now installs godoc. PR 854

    Others

    • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
      • Use GOPATH as defined by the go env output as default. Use go binary from default platform specific locations when GOROOT is not set as env variable. Fixes Bug 873
      • Fix compiling errors for vendor packages in case of symlinks. PR 864
      • Support links in the test output, which then navigates the user to the right line of the test file where tests are failing. PR 885

    • ๐Ÿ 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.

  • v0.6.54 Changes

    February 28, 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

    โœ… 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

    ๐Ÿ›  Other Bug Fixes

    • Richard Musiol (@neelance)
      • Fix offset for files with multibyte characters so that features like Hover and Go To Definition work as expected. PR 780
    • Ramya Rao (@ramya-rao-a)
      • Fix for Bug 777 Less disruptive experience during test failures when go.coveronSave is true.
      • Fix for Bug 680 Reduce noise in Go to Symbol in File feature by removing the entries corresponding to import statements. PR 775

  • v0.6.53 Changes

    January 30, 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

    ๐Ÿ— 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

    โœ… 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

    • Marcel Voigt (@nochso)

      • Show error message in output window when running test coverage fails. PR 721

    Debugging improvements

  • v0.6.52 Changes

    January 05, 2017
    • Yuwei Ba (@ibigbug)
      • Use http.proxy setting while installing Go tools. PR 639
