Functions

func PrepareGo

func PrepareGo(jirix *jiri.X, env map[string]string, args []string, extraLDFlags, installSuffix string) ([]string, error)

PrepareGo runs recommended checks on the environment and related commands before execution of the Go toolchain. The Go toolchain should use the returned args. PrepareGo for the 'env' strips any enviornment variables that the go command doesn't understand.

For example, it ensures that all Go files generated by the VDL compiler are up-to-date. It also generates flags so that build information can be embedded in resulting binaries.
