Go - Modules & Dependency Mgmt

Modules

go mod init example.com/app
go get github.com/google/[email protected]
go mod tidy

Versioning

• Semantic import versioning for v2+ modules (e.g., module/v2).
• Pin versions explicitly to ensure reproducible builds.

Tooling

• go fmt ./... format
• go vet ./... static checks
• golangci-lint (external) for aggregate linting

Reproducibility

• Use go env -w GOPROXY=https://proxy.golang.org,direct when needed.
• Consider vendor/ with go mod vendor for locked environments.
