Is there a way I can set an environment variable for Go tools? I don’t want to launch vscode from a terminal, and I want to set GO111MODULE=off for gopls and other tools on a per workspace basis

Sandip Bhattacharya

@sandipb

never mind. Found out:

        "go.toolsEnvVars": {
            "GO111MODULE": "off"
        },

I'm sorry, maybe that's trivial, but I can't get the go code completion to run. I have installed the extension, it prompted me to install all the tools, it did install all the tools and it said All tools successfully installed. You are ready to Go :).. The setting "go.useLanguageServer": true is set.

Now if I'm in a go file, I'd expect if I start typing fmt. that I get all the functions in the package recommended. But nothing happens. What am i doing wrong?

I think I found it. I had go 1.14 installed, but the repository I was trying it out with was go 1.13. so the go.mod file always automatically included the go 1.14 line and that didn't work. Once everything is on the same version, it works

hello, any one can help me with vs code for go?

i m using ubuntu

Norbert Melzer

@NobbZ

Looks as if you do not have permissions to write to ~/go/pkg or one of its parents.

burstman

@burstman

haw can i let have permission?

Norbert Melzer

@NobbZ

First check the permissions…

Then you can use regular linux means to adjust them (chmod)

Norbert Melzer

@NobbZ

Whats the permissions on ~/go and ~/go/pkg? (This assumes that holacus is your user)

burstman

@burstman

yes

matrixbot

@matrixbot

@NobbZ:matrix.org So your permissions are "yes"?

burstman

@burstman

ah wait

burstman

@burstman

drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 مارس 9 12:05 /home/holacus/go

matrixbot

@matrixbot

@NobbZ:matrix.org Why is that folder owned by root? chown -rv holacus:holacus ~/go to transfer ownership to your current user.

burstman

@burstman

chown: invalid option -- 'r'

have i put somthing wrong?

matrixbot

@matrixbot

@NobbZ:matrix.org Oh, it is -R… And you need to sudo ;D

burstman

@burstman

burstman

@burstman

drwxr-xr-x 3 holacus holacus 4096 مارس 9 12:05 /home/holacus/go

matrixbot

@matrixbot

@NobbZ:matrix.org Looks a lot better, now vscode should install properly

@NobbZ:matrix.org * Looks a lot better, now vscode should install the packages properly

burstman

@burstman

thanks its working all packages are installed successfully . But can you explain me what was the problem at the beginning?

matrixbot

@matrixbot

@NobbZ:matrix.org Your ~/go was owned by root, not sure how that could happen, unless you created it with sudo mkdir or similar

burstman

@burstman

i have installet the go using apt install

matrixbot

@matrixbot

@NobbZ:matrix.org That doesn't do anything in your home folder

burstman

@burstman

ok thanks for help

matrixbot

@matrixbot

@NobbZ:matrix.org At least, assuming that APT is done properly… I would not expect any package manager to create stuff in /home…

burstman

@burstman

i understand, and i dont think i have made it my self

matrixbot

@matrixbot

@NobbZ:matrix.org Perhaps something else you did as root unconsciously?

burstman

@burstman

may be

matrixbot

@matrixbot

@NobbZ:matrix.org Don't worry, happens to all of us.

burstman

@burstman

thanks for your answers

Hey does anyone ever have an issue saving Go "code" and the Go formatter in vscode is taking a long time to do a save

Andrew Appleton

@appleton

Hello folks, I was planning to open an issue asking about semantic highlighting support for Go, and it pointed me here first. Does anyone know if this work is planned? I'd love to see an expanded set of syntax scopes available for Go!

@ecarter202

I'm getting the following error: /usr/local/go/pkg/darwin_amd64/runtime/cgo.a: permission denied

This is after having removed 1.13 and installing 1.14

ecarter202

@ecarter202

Any idea the solution? I'm thinking there is a better way than just changing the directory / file permissions...

hi guys. i want to ask a question. im fairly new to golang and i am studying it. Right now i came across with something weird. i cannot understand it. When i copy elements from one slice to another with the copy function and i assign it to a variable lets say n, if i print out the value of the variable n, it shows how many elements have been copied. How is this possible?

Zigmas Slusnys

@slushnys

Greetings everyone, before creating a bug report I wanted to ask if anyone's experiencing the same or maybe know of an existing bug report where go extension just stops highlighting any code until the VSCode gets reloaded? I'm experiencing this quite often when writing code.

Does anyone know how to configure the left panel to NOT open when selecting "run without debugging?" This is only happening with Go.

Steven Johnson

@stevenj

Anyone know how to fix this error:

Your workspace is misconfigured: 
go [-e -json -compiled=true -test=true -export=false -deps=true -find=false -- ./]: 
exit status 1: go: cannot find main
module, but found .git/config in
/home/steven/Development/privacy-hero/adapter-auth-lambda
    to create a module there, run:
    go mod init
. Please see
https://github.com/golang/tools/blob/master/gopls/doc/troubleshooting.md for
more information or file an issue (https://github.com/golang/go/issues/new) if
you believe this is a mistake.

Hi, i'm on MacOS 10.15.4, after upgrading to VS.Code 1.43.2, Go extension never works for go to definitions or other go to functions in my code, i tried to downgrade to earlier version of Go extension but didn't help, anyone also mets this problem?

Cristiano Degiorgis

@crixo

Hi, I'm using vscode-go extension 0.13.1 w/ VSCode 143.2 on MacOs10.13.6. I have a git repo with multiple folder at root level each of those w/ an independent go application plus other folder w/ infrastructure matters (eg. kind setup, docs...). If I open an instance of VScode against a specific folder everything works fine but if I open a VScode instance agianst the repo root and I'm trying to work on a specific project/folder, autocompletion, navigation, error checking do not work. Is there a way/settings to have same experience I got when I work with a single folder?
