GolangCI-Lint

GolangCI-Lint is a linters aggregator. It's fast: on average 5 times faster than gometalinter. It's easy to integrate and use, has nice output and has a minimum number of false positives.

GolangCI-Lint has integrations with VS Code, GNU Emacs, Sublime Text.

Sponsored by GolangCI.com: SaaS service for running linters on Github pull requests. Free for Open Source.

Install

CI Installation

Most installations are done for CI (travis, circleci etc). It's important to have reproducible CI: don't start to fail all builds at the same time. With golangci-lint this can happen if you use --enable-all and a new linter is added or even without --enable-all: when one upstream linter is upgraded.

It's highly recommended to install a fixed version of golangci-lint. Releases are available on the releases page.

The recommended way to install golangci-lint:

curl -sfL https://install.goreleaser.com/github.com/golangci/golangci-lint.sh | bash -s VERSION

Periodically update version of golangci-lint: the project is under active development and is constantly being improved. But please always check for newly found issues and update if needed.

Local Installation

It's a not recommended for your CI pipeline. Only install like this for your local development environment.

go get -u github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/cmd/golangci-lint

You can also install it on OSX using brew:

brew install golangci/tap/golangci-lint
brew upgrade golangci/tap/golangci-lint

Quick Start

To run golangci-lint execute:

golangci-lint run

It's an equivalent of executing:

golangci-lint run ./...

You can choose which directories and files to analyze:

golangci-lint run dir1 dir2/... dir3/file1.go

Directories are NOT analyzed recursively. To analyze them recursively append /... to their path.

GolangCI-Lint can be used with zero configuration. By default the following linters are enabled:

$ golangci-lint linters
Enabled by default linters:
govet: Vet examines Go source code and reports suspicious constructs, such as Printf calls whose arguments do not align with the format string [fast: false]
errcheck: Errcheck is a program for checking for unchecked errors in go programs. These unchecked errors can be critical bugs in some cases [fast: false]
staticcheck: Staticcheck is a go vet on steroids, applying a ton of static analysis checks [fast: false]
unused: Checks Go code for unused constants, variables, functions and types [fast: false]
gosimple: Linter for Go source code that specializes in simplifying a code [fast: false]
gas: Inspects source code for security problems [fast: false]
structcheck: Finds an unused struct fields [fast: false]
varcheck: Finds unused global variables and constants [fast: false]
ineffassign: Detects when assignments to existing variables are not used [fast: true]
deadcode: Finds unused code [fast: false]
typecheck: Like the front-end of a Go compiler, parses and type-checks Go code [fast: false]

and the following linters are disabled by default:

$ golangci-lint linters
...
Disabled by default linters:
golint: Golint differs from gofmt. Gofmt reformats Go source code, whereas golint prints out style mistakes [fast: true]
interfacer: Linter that suggests narrower interface types [fast: false]
unconvert: Remove unnecessary type conversions [fast: false]
dupl: Tool for code clone detection [fast: true]
goconst: Finds repeated strings that could be replaced by a constant [fast: true]
gocyclo: Computes and checks the cyclomatic complexity of functions [fast: true]
gofmt: Gofmt checks whether code was gofmt-ed. By default this tool runs with -s option to check for code simplification [fast: true]
goimports: Goimports does everything that gofmt does. Additionally it checks unused imports [fast: true]
maligned: Tool to detect Go structs that would take less memory if their fields were sorted [fast: false]
megacheck: 3 sub-linters in one: unused, gosimple and staticcheck [fast: false]
depguard: Go linter that checks if package imports are in a list of acceptable packages [fast: false]
misspell: Finds commonly misspelled English words in comments [fast: true]
lll: Reports long lines [fast: true]

Pass -E/--enable to enable linter and -D/--disable to disable:

$ golangci-lint run --disable-all -E errcheck

Editor Integration

1. Go for Visual Studio Code.
2. Sublime Text - plugin for SublimeLinter.
3. GoLand

• Configure File Watcher with arguments run --print-issued-lines=false $FileDir$.
• Predefined File Watcher will be added in issue.

1. GNU Emacs - flycheck checker.
2. Vim - issue for vim-go.

Comparison

golangci-lint vs gometalinter

GolangCI-Lint was created to fix the following issues with gometalinter:

1. Slow work: gometalinter usually works for minutes in average projects. GolangCI-Lint works 2-7x times faster by reusing work.
2. Huge memory consumption: parallel linters don't share the same program representation and can consume n times more memory (n - concurrency). GolangCI-Lint fixes it by sharing representation and consumes 1.35x less memory.
3. Doesn't use real bounded concurrency: if you set it to n it can take up to n*n threads because of forced threads in specific linters. gometalinter can't do anything about it because it runs linters as black boxes in forked processes. In GolangCI-Lint we run all linters in one process and completely control them. Configured concurrency will be correctly bounded. This issue is important because you often want to set concurrency to the CPUs count minus one to ensure you do not freeze your PC and be able to work on it while analyzing code.
4. Lack of nice output. We like how the gcc and clang compilers format their warnings: using colors, printing warning lines and showing the position in line.
5. Too many issues. GolangCI-Lint cuts a lot of issues by using default exclude list of common false-positives. By default, it has enabled smart issues processing: merge multiple issues for one line, merge issues with the same text or from the same linter. All of these smart processors can be configured by the user.
6. Integration into large codebases. A good way to start using linters in a large project is not to fix a plethora of existing issues, but to set up CI and fix only issues in new commits. You can use revgrep for it, but it's yet another utility to install and configure. With golangci-lint it's much easier: revgrep is already built into golangci-lint and you can use it with one option (-n, --new or --new-from-rev).
7. Installation. With gometalinter, you need to run a linters installation step. It's easy to forget this step and end up with stale linters. It also complicates CI setup. GolangCI-Lint requires no installation of linters.
8. Yaml or toml config. Gometalinter's JSON isn't convenient for config files.

golangci-lint vs Running Linters Manually

1. It will be much slower because golangci-lint runs all linters in parallel and shares 50-80% of linters work.
2. It will have less control and more false-positives: some linters can't be properly configured without hacks.
3. It will take more time because of different usages and need of tracking of versions of n linters.

Performance

Benchmarks were executed on MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013), 2,4 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3. It has 4 cores and concurrent linting as a default consuming all cores. Benchmark was run (and measured) automatically, see the code here (BenchmarkWithGometalinter).

We measure peak memory usage (RSS) by tracking of processes RSS every 5 ms.

Comparison with gometalinter

We compare golangci-lint and gometalinter in default mode, but explicitly enable all linters because of small differences in the default configuration.

Configuration

The config file has lower priority than command-line options. If the same bool/string/int option is provided on the command-line and in the config file, the option from command-line will be used. Slice options (e.g. list of enabled/disabled linters) are combined from the command-line and config file.

Config File

GolangCI-Lint looks for config files in the following paths from the current working directory:

• .golangci.yml
• .golangci.toml
• .golangci.json

GolangCI-Lint also searches for config files in all directories from the directory of the first analyzed path up to the root. To see which config file is being used and where it was sourced from run golangci-lint with -v option.

Config options inside the file are identical to command-line options. You can configure specific linters' options only within the config file (not the command-line).

There is a .golangci.example.yml example config file with all supported options, their description and default value:

# This file contains all available configuration options
# with their default values.

# options for analysis running
run:
  # default concurrency is a available CPU number
  concurrency: 4

  # timeout for analysis, e.g. 30s, 5m, default is 1m
  deadline: 1m

  # exit code when at least one issue was found, default is 1
  issues-exit-code: 1

  # include test files or not, default is true
  tests: true

  # list of build tags, all linters use it. Default is empty list.
  build-tags:
    - mytag

  # which dirs to skip: they won't be analyzed;
  # can use regexp here: generated.*, regexp is applied on full path;
  # default value is empty list, but next dirs are always skipped independently
  # from this option's value:
  #   	vendor$, third_party$, testdata$, examples$, Godeps$, builtin$
  skip-dirs:
    - src/external_libs
    - autogenerated_by_my_lib

  # which files to skip: they will be analyzed, but issues from them

  # no need to include all autogenerated files, we confidently recognize
  # autogenerated files. If it's not please let us know.
  skip-files:
    - ".*\\.my\\.go$"

False Positives

False positives are inevitable, but we did our best to reduce their count. For example, we have a default enabled set of exclude patterns. If a false positive occurred you have the following choices:

1. Exclude issue by text using command-line option -e or config option issues.exclude. It's helpful when you decided to ignore all issues of this type.
2. Exclude this one issue by using special comment // nolint[:linter1,linter2,...] on issued line. Comment // nolint disables all issues reporting on this line. Comment e.g. // nolint:govet disables only govet issues for this line. If you would like to completely exclude all issues for some function prepend this comment above function:

//nolint
func f() {
  ...
}

Please create GitHub Issues here if you find any false positives. We will add it to the default exclude list if it's common or we will fix underlying linter.

Internals

The key difference with gometalinter is that golangci-lint shares work between specific linters (golint, govet, ...). For small and medium projects 50-80% of work between linters can be reused. Now we share loader.Program and SSA representation building. SSA representation is used from a fork of go-tools, not the official one. Also, we are going to reuse AST parsing and traversal.

We don't fork to call specific linter but use its API. We forked GitHub repos of almost all linters to make API. It also allows us to be more performant and control actual count of used threads.

All linters are vendored in the /vendor folder: their version is fixed, they are builtin and you don't need to install them separately.

We use chains for issues and independent processors to post-process them: exclude issues by limits, nolint comment, diff, regexps; prettify paths, etc.

We use cobra for command-line options.

FAQ

How do you add a custom linter?

You can integrate it yourself, see this wiki page with documentation. Or you can create a GitHub Issue and we will integrate when time permits.

It's cool to use golangci-lint when starting a project, but what about existing projects with large codebase? It will take days to fix all found issues

We are sure that every project can easily integrate golangci-lint, even the large one. The idea is to not fix all existing issues. Fix only newly added issue: issues in new code. To do this setup CI (or better use GolangCI to run golangci-lint with option --new-from-rev=origin/master. Also, take a look at option -n. By doing this you won't create new issues in your code and can choose fix existing issues (or not).

How to use golangci-lint in CI (Continuous Integration)?

You have 2 choices:

1. Use GolangCI: this service is highly integrated with GitHub (issues are commented in the pull request) and uses a golangci-lint tool. For configuration use .golangci.yml (or toml/json).
2. Use custom CI: just run golangci-lint in CI and check the exit code. If it's non-zero - fail the build. The main disadvantage is that you can't see issues in pull request code and would need to view the build log, then open the referenced source file to see the context. If you'd like to vendor golangci-lint in your repo, run:

go get -u github.com/golang/dep/cmd/dep
dep init
dep ensure -v -add github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/cmd/golangci-lint

Then add these lines to your Gopkg.toml file, so dep ensure -update won't delete the vendored golangci-lint code.

required = [
  "github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/cmd/golangci-lint",
]

In your CI scripts, install the vendored golangci-lint like this:

go install ./vendor/github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/cmd/golangci-lint/

Vendoring golangci-lint saves a network request, potentially making your CI system a little more reliable.

Does I need to run go install?

No, you don't need to do it anymore. We will run go install -i and go test -i for analyzed packages ourselves. We will run them only if option govet.use-installed-packages is true.

golangci-lint doesn't work

1. Update it: go get -u github.com/golangci/golangci-lint/cmd/golangci-lint
2. Run it with -v option and check the output.
3. If it doesn't help create a GitHub issue with the output from the error and #2 above.

Future Plans

1. Upstream all changes of forked linters.
2. Fully integrate all used linters: make a common interface and reuse 100% of what can be reused: AST traversal, packages preparation etc.
3. Make it easy to write own linter/checker: it should take a minimum code, have perfect documentation, debugging and testing tooling.
4. Speed up package loading (dig into loader): on-disk cache and existing code profiling-optimizing.
5. Analyze (don't only filter) only new code: analyze only changed files and dependencies, make incremental analysis, caches.
6. Smart new issues detector: don't print existing issues on changed lines.
7. Integration with Text Editors. On-the-fly code analysis for text editors: it should be super-fast.
8. Minimize false-positives by fixing linters and improving testing tooling.
9. Automatic issues fixing (code rewrite, refactoring) where it's possible.
10. Documentation for every issue type.
