Gomass

Summary

Figure out what's giving your Go binaries so much mass. This provides a report broken out by package and symbol so that you can see exactly where your precious storage is being used.

Installation

This project can be directly installed via go:

go install github.com/andrewbenton/gomass@latest

Usage

View the help:

gomass -h

# Usage of gomass:
#  -b, --binary string
#  -f, --format string   Select the output format from [json] (default "json")
#  -s, --skip-symbols    Skip emitting granular symbol data
# pflag: help requested

Emit JSON for analysis:

gomass -b <my_binary>

Show a UI:

gomass -b <my_binary> -f ui

Hide symbols from the report:

gomass -b <my_binary> -s

Notes

This analyzes binary space based on the symbol table. This will not be perfectly accurate and should only be used as a quick, general guide. If your binary has had the symbol table stripped, this will not be able to run.
