Documentation

Overview

Package source dumps the source code of the current binary to standard output.

It adds the -source flag, that should call the function source.Dump(), for this the binary's source needs to have a go embed directive:

//go:embed *.go
var code embed.FS
// ...
if *source.Flag {
	source.Dump(code)
}

Variables

var Flag = flag.Bool("source", false, "dump source code to standard output")

Flag is the -source flag that gets added to the default set of flags.

Functions

func Dump

func Dump(code embed.FS, w ...io.Writer) error

Dump dumps all *.go files to w. If there is more than 1 go file they get a 'more'-like header:

::::::::::::::
file..go
::::::::::::::

If w isn't specified, os.Stdout is assumed. Only the first writer will be used when it is provided.
