build failing ?

varunair

@varunair

Even I've been getting the 'build failing' message along with 2 pop up messages on the bottom right that say 'couldn't start client gopls' and 'unsupported URI scheme: (gopls only supports file URIs)'. I'm new to this and honestly I don't completely understand what this means....could anyone please help me with this. Thanks.

Somehow the intellisense for the go extension in VSCode has stopped working for me? Not sure what has changed...

GOPATH set to ~/go and GOROOT set to /usr/local/go

hello everyone .... i found a little bug today while playing around with visual code.

this is the bug... if you didn't save the file and trying to test your code it might give you headache for no reason..... so kindly save your file before running it.

Has anyone ever encountered this error on macos?

OGANICA

@OGANICA

this extension is horrible buggy garbage - I cannot believe that Microsoft would release an extension with this many bugs. VS Code is now so unstable that I'm going to switch entirely to IntelliJ. The people releasing this trash need to be fired.

Is there a way to run gofmt on save but still be able to manually invoke goimports via some other command?

diaton

@diaton

@itrack I added write permission to the file and fixed it. "chmod 666 cgo.a"

Alex Converse

@aconverse

To answer my own question, adding a command runner plugin like edonet.vscode-command-runner let me add a goimports command I can invoke manually.

I'm having some issues importing a go module - "could not import github.com/stripe/stripe-go/v71 (no package for import github.com/stripe/stripe-go/v71)" - yet there clearly is a go module there - https://github.com/stripe/stripe-go/blob/master/go.mod

Color theme author here. VSCode 1.45 changed something to the text grammar scope of the "Debug Console" without mentioning it in the release notes. Probably this was undesired. I can't find the scope to specifically set the foreground text color of the the "Debug Console" anymore. What's the name of the scope? It certainly isn't listed here: https://code.visualstudio.com/api/references/theme-color

@freeo

nevermind, I've found it. I think the naming is bad though.
"debugTokenExpression.value"

Hi when using gopls, how can I disable the real-time syntax error highlighting? Without the language server, it would highlight syntax errors on save only. With the language server, it shows syntax errors as I type. I find this very distracting and would like to turn it off and have it on-save only

Hi all, I've previously been using dlv for debugging but recently (perhaps since upgrading macos to Catalina?) I'm getting the following when attempting to debug applications or tests:

# runtime/cgo
ld: unknown option: -platform_version
clang-10: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
Process exiting with code: 1

Has anyone else run into this issue and managed to fix it?

hey folks, I'm stumped in figuring out where gopls gets its environment variables. this is causing a problem when running //go:generate and using a command relies on a plugin that needs to be in $PATH

I've tried overriding them with

    "go.toolsEnvVars": {
        "PATH": "$HOME/go/bin:$PATH",
    }

but it doesn't seem to evaluate $PATH, so it overrides all existing

@aasmall

oh, I figured it out. I launched vscode from a .desktop file. fixed when launching from a terminal with appropriate path set

I been using vscode + Go for a while. Accidentally installed something called gopls and now all my code imports are showing errors

how do I just undo whatever the heck I did, vscode prompted and I hit the wrong thing: full disclosure, I have no idea what gopls is and I dont code in Go much anymore, but I did for a stint last year

I think I figured it out, I had to disable languageServer

Hi. My main.go is under cmd subpackage under my project package. So far, I could not figure out how to configure launch.json. Is anyone able to configure launch.json to start debugging session with main.go not under project package level?

I didn’t realize it was as easy as pointing to the file. This worked for me.

Hi -- I'm trying to setup remote development on a remote Ubuntu server from my local MacBook, via vscode remote ssh. My remote Ubuntu server has go1.13 installed:

However, I can't seem to install vscode's Go extension onto my remote Ubuntu server. The Install on SSH: <ip> button doesn't appear on the extension when browsing my locally installed extensions.

hi, how do I run go projects that are not modules and are cloned outside gopath on vscode?

Bogie

@Chagchen

Is there an extension in vs code, so I can use it to edit "normal" text as well? I don't like the plane dark theme in google docs.

@MinJungSung

vscode.commands.executeCommand

NobbZ Depending on your definition of "normal text".

Hi all - Struggling with my configuration and need some help. I'm trying to use environment variables in my current project to inject secure configuration data that I will use for running go tests that leverage network services.

Every configuration I have tried fails to import/set the needed variables when I use "run test / debug test"

Currently I have tried using
"envFile" in my launch config to ${workspace}/.env "env": { "key": "value" } in launch config
*Setting the "Go: Test Env File" to my .env file in the extension setting
(This actually create an error when running "debug tests" Cannot load environment variables from file <path>/.env

None of these seem to inject the needed variables into the environment so that I can us os.LookupEnv to retrieve them. Any clue what I'm doing wrong ? I'm on the latest version of VScode for Mac with current extensions.

My current launch.json looks like below.

Thanks in advance !

@ramya-rao-a I encountered the same problem with microsoft/vscode-go#1421. The console log showed the following message: Error on CreateBreakpoint: could not find file /root/mr-weather-backend/pkg/widget/v1/service.go
But I can find the file on the remote host.
