Overview

Package packages loads Go packages for inspection and analysis.

The Load function takes as input a list of patterns and return a list of Package structs describing individual packages matched by those patterns. The LoadMode controls the amount of detail in the loaded packages.

Load passes most patterns directly to the underlying build tool, but all patterns with the prefix "query=", where query is a non-empty string of letters from [a-z], are reserved and may be interpreted as query operators.

Two query operators are currently supported: "file" and "pattern".

The query "file=path/to/file.go" matches the package or packages enclosing the Go source file path/to/file.go. For example "file=~/go/src/fmt/print.go" might return the packages "fmt" and "fmt [fmt.test]".

The query "pattern=string" causes "string" to be passed directly to the underlying build tool. In most cases this is unnecessary, but an application can use Load("pattern=" + x) as an escaping mechanism to ensure that x is not interpreted as a query operator if it contains '='.

All other query operators are reserved for future use and currently cause Load to report an error.

The Package struct provides basic information about the package, including

  • ID, a unique identifier for the package in the returned set;
  • GoFiles, the names of the package's Go source files;
  • Imports, a map from source import strings to the Packages they name;
  • Types, the type information for the package's exported symbols;
  • Syntax, the parsed syntax trees for the package's source code; and
  • TypeInfo, the result of a complete type-check of the package syntax trees.

(See the documentation for type Package for the complete list of fields and more detailed descriptions.)

For example,

Load(nil, "bytes", "unicode...")

returns four Package structs describing the standard library packages bytes, unicode, unicode/utf16, and unicode/utf8. Note that one pattern can match multiple packages and that a package might be matched by multiple patterns: in general it is not possible to determine which packages correspond to which patterns.

Note that the list returned by Load contains only the packages matched by the patterns. Their dependencies can be found by walking the import graph using the Imports fields.

The Load function can be configured by passing a pointer to a Config as the first argument. A nil Config is equivalent to the zero Config, which causes Load to run in LoadFiles mode, collecting minimal information. See the documentation for type Config for details.

As noted earlier, the Config.Mode controls the amount of detail reported about the loaded packages. See the documentation for type LoadMode for details.

Most tools should pass their command-line arguments (after any flags) uninterpreted to the loader, so that the loader can interpret them according to the conventions of the underlying build system. See the Example function for typical usage.

Example

Example demonstrates how to load the packages specified on the command line from source syntax.

package main

import (
	"flag"
	"fmt"
	"os"

	"github.com/april1989/origin-go-tools/go/packages"
)

func main() {
	flag.Parse()

	// Many tools pass their command-line arguments (after any flags)
	// uninterpreted to packages.Load so that it can interpret them
	// according to the conventions of the underlying build system.
	cfg := &packages.Config{Mode: packages.NeedFiles | packages.NeedSyntax}
	pkgs, err := packages.Load(cfg, flag.Args()...)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "load: %v\n", err)
		os.Exit(1)
	}
	if packages.PrintErrors(pkgs) > 0 {
		os.Exit(1)
	}

	// Print the names of the source files
	// for each package listed on the command line.
	for _, pkg := range pkgs {
		fmt.Println(pkg.ID, pkg.GoFiles)
	}
}
Output:

Functions

func PrintErrors

func PrintErrors(pkgs []*Package) int

PrintErrors prints to os.Stderr the accumulated errors of all packages in the import graph rooted at pkgs, dependencies first. PrintErrors returns the number of errors printed.

func Visit

func Visit(pkgs []*Package, pre func(*Package) bool, post func(*Package))

Visit visits all the packages in the import graph whose roots are pkgs, calling the optional pre function the first time each package is encountered (preorder), and the optional post function after a package's dependencies have been visited (postorder). The boolean result of pre(pkg) determines whether the imports of package pkg are visited.

func VisitAndMore

func VisitAndMore(pkgs []*Package, pre func(*Package) bool, post func(int, *Package))

bz: i need the index of pkgs

Types

type Config

type Config struct {
	// Mode controls the level of information returned for each package.
	Mode LoadMode

	// Context specifies the context for the load operation.
	// If the context is cancelled, the loader may stop early
	// and return an ErrCancelled error.
	// If Context is nil, the load cannot be cancelled.
	Context context.Context

	// Logf is the logger for the config.
	// If the user provides a logger, debug logging is enabled.
	// If the GOPACKAGESDEBUG environment variable is set to true,
	// but the logger is nil, default to log.Printf.
	Logf func(format string, args ...interface{})

	// Dir is the directory in which to run the build system's query tool
	// that provides information about the packages.
	// If Dir is empty, the tool is run in the current directory.
	Dir string

	// Env is the environment to use when invoking the build system's query tool.
	// If Env is nil, the current environment is used.
	// As in os/exec's Cmd, only the last value in the slice for
	// each environment key is used. To specify the setting of only
	// a few variables, append to the current environment, as in:
	//
	//	opt.Env = append(os.Environ(), "GOOS=plan9", "GOARCH=386")
	//
	Env []string

	// BuildFlags is a list of command-line flags to be passed through to
	// the build system's query tool.
	BuildFlags []string

	// Fset provides source position information for syntax trees and types.
	// If Fset is nil, Load will use a new fileset, but preserve Fset's value.
	Fset *token.FileSet

	// ParseFile is called to read and parse each file
	// when preparing a package's type-checked syntax tree.
	// It must be safe to call ParseFile simultaneously from multiple goroutines.
	// If ParseFile is nil, the loader will uses parser.ParseFile.
	//
	// ParseFile should parse the source from src and use filename only for
	// recording position information.
	//
	// An application may supply a custom implementation of ParseFile
	// to change the effective file contents or the behavior of the parser,
	// or to modify the syntax tree. For example, selectively eliminating
	// unwanted function bodies can significantly accelerate type checking.
	ParseFile func(fset *token.FileSet, filename string, src []byte) (*ast.File, error)

	// If Tests is set, the loader includes not just the packages
	// matching a particular pattern but also any related test packages,
	// including test-only variants of the package and the test executable.
	//
	// For example, when using the go command, loading "fmt" with Tests=true
	// returns four packages, with IDs "fmt" (the standard package),
	// "fmt [fmt.test]" (the package as compiled for the test),
	// "fmt_test" (the test functions from source files in package fmt_test),
	// and "fmt.test" (the test binary).
	//
	// In build systems with explicit names for tests,
	// setting Tests may have no effect.
	Tests bool

	// Overlay provides a mapping of absolute file paths to file contents.
	// If the file with the given path already exists, the parser will use the
	// alternative file contents provided by the map.
	//
	// Overlays provide incomplete support for when a given file doesn't
	// already exist on disk. See the package doc above for more details.
	Overlay map[string][]byte
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

A Config specifies details about how packages should be loaded. The zero value is a valid configuration. Calls to Load do not modify this struct.

type Error

type Error struct {
	Pos  string // "file:line:col" or "file:line" or "" or "-"
	Msg  string
	Kind ErrorKind
}

An Error describes a problem with a package's metadata, syntax, or types.

func (Error) Error

func (err Error) Error() string

type ErrorKind

type ErrorKind int

ErrorKind describes the source of the error, allowing the user to differentiate between errors generated by the driver, the parser, or the type-checker.

const (
	UnknownError ErrorKind = iota
	ListError
	ParseError
	TypeError
)

type LoadMode

type LoadMode int

A LoadMode controls the amount of detail to return when loading. The bits below can be combined to specify which fields should be filled in the result packages. The zero value is a special case, equivalent to combining the NeedName, NeedFiles, and NeedCompiledGoFiles bits. ID and Errors (if present) will always be filled. Load may return more information than requested.

const (
	// NeedName adds Name and PkgPath.
	NeedName LoadMode = 1 << iota

	// NeedFiles adds GoFiles and OtherFiles.
	NeedFiles

	// NeedCompiledGoFiles adds CompiledGoFiles.
	NeedCompiledGoFiles

	// NeedImports adds Imports. If NeedDeps is not set, the Imports field will contain
	// "placeholder" Packages with only the ID set.
	NeedImports

	// NeedDeps adds the fields requested by the LoadMode in the packages in Imports.
	NeedDeps

	// NeedExportsFile adds ExportFile.
	NeedExportsFile

	// NeedTypes adds Types, Fset, and IllTyped.
	NeedTypes

	// NeedSyntax adds Syntax.
	NeedSyntax

	// NeedTypesInfo adds TypesInfo.
	NeedTypesInfo

	// NeedTypesSizes adds TypesSizes.
	NeedTypesSizes

	// NeedModule adds Module.
	NeedModule
)

func (LoadMode) String

func (mod LoadMode) String() string

type Module

type Module struct {
	Path      string       // module path
	Version   string       // module version
	Replace   *Module      // replaced by this module
	Time      *time.Time   // time version was created
	Main      bool         // is this the main module?
	Indirect  bool         // is this module only an indirect dependency of main module?
	Dir       string       // directory holding files for this module, if any
	GoMod     string       // path to go.mod file used when loading this module, if any
	GoVersion string       // go version used in module
	Error     *ModuleError // error loading module
}

Module provides module information for a package.

type ModuleError

type ModuleError struct {
	Err string // the error itself
}

ModuleError holds errors loading a module.

type Package

type Package struct {
	// ID is a unique identifier for a package,
	// in a syntax provided by the underlying build system.
	//
	// Because the syntax varies based on the build system,
	// clients should treat IDs as opaque and not attempt to
	// interpret them.
	ID string

	// Name is the package name as it appears in the package source code.
	Name string

	// PkgPath is the package path as used by the go/types package.
	PkgPath string

	// Errors contains any errors encountered querying the metadata
	// of the package, or while parsing or type-checking its files.
	Errors []Error

	// GoFiles lists the absolute file paths of the package's Go source files.
	GoFiles []string

	// CompiledGoFiles lists the absolute file paths of the package's source
	// files that are suitable for type checking.
	// This may differ from GoFiles if files are processed before compilation.
	CompiledGoFiles []string

	// OtherFiles lists the absolute file paths of the package's non-Go source files,
	// including assembly, C, C++, Fortran, Objective-C, SWIG, and so on.
	OtherFiles []string

	// ExportFile is the absolute path to a file containing type
	// information for the package as provided by the build system.
	ExportFile string

	// Imports maps import paths appearing in the package's Go source files
	// to corresponding loaded Packages.
	Imports map[string]*Package

	// Types provides type information for the package.
	// The NeedTypes LoadMode bit sets this field for packages matching the
	// patterns; type information for dependencies may be missing or incomplete,
	// unless NeedDeps and NeedImports are also set.
	Types *types.Package

	// Fset provides position information for Types, TypesInfo, and Syntax.
	// It is set only when Types is set.
	Fset *token.FileSet

	// IllTyped indicates whether the package or any dependency contains errors.
	// It is set only when Types is set.
	IllTyped bool

	// Syntax is the package's syntax trees, for the files listed in CompiledGoFiles.
	//
	// The NeedSyntax LoadMode bit populates this field for packages matching the patterns.
	// If NeedDeps and NeedImports are also set, this field will also be populated
	// for dependencies.
	Syntax []*ast.File

	// TypesInfo provides type information about the package's syntax trees.
	// It is set only when Syntax is set.
	TypesInfo *types.Info

	// TypesSizes provides the effective size function for types in TypesInfo.
	TypesSizes types.Sizes

	// module is the module information for the package if it exists.
	Module *Module
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

A Package describes a loaded Go package.

func Load

func Load(cfg *Config, patterns ...string) ([]*Package, error)

Load loads and returns the Go packages named by the given patterns.

Config specifies loading options; nil behaves the same as an empty Config.

Load returns an error if any of the patterns was invalid as defined by the underlying build system. It may return an empty list of packages without an error, for instance for an empty expansion of a valid wildcard. Errors associated with a particular package are recorded in the corresponding Package's Errors list, and do not cause Load to return an error. Clients may need to handle such errors before proceeding with further analysis. The PrintErrors function is provided for convenient display of all errors.

func PrintErrorsAndMore

func PrintErrorsAndMore(pkgs []*Package) (int, []*Package)

bz: race_checker api -> i want to know who are those pkgs with errors. and I also want to exclude those error pkgs from pkgs (input)

func (*Package) MarshalJSON

func (p *Package) MarshalJSON() ([]byte, error)

MarshalJSON returns the Package in its JSON form. For the most part, the structure fields are written out unmodified, and the type and syntax fields are skipped. The imports are written out as just a map of path to package id. The errors are written using a custom type that tries to preserve the structure of error types we know about.

This method exists to enable support for additional build systems. It is not intended for use by clients of the API and we may change the format.

func (*Package) String

func (p *Package) String() string

func (*Package) UnmarshalJSON

func (p *Package) UnmarshalJSON(b []byte) error

UnmarshalJSON reads in a Package from its JSON format. See MarshalJSON for details about the format accepted.
