golang plugin for asdf version manager

Requirements

Linux (Debian)

• curl - apt install curl

Install

asdf plugin-add golang https://github.com/kennyp/asdf-golang.git

Use

Check the asdf readme for instructions on how to install & manage versions of go.

When using go get

After using go get to install a package you need to run asdf reshim golang to get any new shims.

Default go get packages

asdf-golang can automatically install a default set of packages with go get -u $PACKAGE right after installing a new Go version. To enable this feature, provide a $HOME/.default-golang-pkgs file that lists one package per line, for example:

// allows comments
github.com/Dreamacro/clash
github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit

You can specify a non-default location of this file by setting a ASDF_GOLANG_DEFAULT_PACKAGES_FILE variable.

Version selection

When using .tool-versions or .go-version, the exact version specified in the file will be selected.

When using go.mod, the highest compatible version that is currently installed will be selected. As per the Go modules reference, that is the highest minor version with a matching major version. For example, a go 1.14 directive in a go.mod file will result in the highest installed 1.minor.patch being selected, not necessarily 1.14.patch.
