Go: Autocomplete Unimported Packages works on variable or package symbols

[szyhf]

My go extension suddenly doesn't works well on "Go: Autocomplete Unimported Packages".

If I set the setting of "Go: Autocomplete Unimported Packages" to true, it works well if I first type package name on blank line as I wish, for example:

But if I already import the package or using an existing variable, it also show the suggest of package, mixed with the 'Member variables' for example:

And what I used to and expect to see is:

I don't know why and I didn't change any setting before.

Really thanks for help.

I‘ve already tried reinstall all go tools and kill old gocode process.

I have the same issues, vs code not auto import.

I have the same issues, vs code not auto import.

No, my problem is auto import package while I type '.' after a variable, in this case I just want to see the member of the variable Orz

[nanght]

i just fixed:

1. stop VS code
2. delete file: %UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\Code\User\settings.json
3. start again

Deleting "go.useLanguageServer": true from the settings should work.

I also meet the issues, vs code will show all the packages from gopath rather than the member of the variable. This happens suddenly. I remember it worked well a few days ago.

go version go1.12.4 darwin/amd64
macOS Mojave 10.13.6
vscode: 1.33.1
vscode-go:0.10.1

vs code setting:

 {
    "go.autocompleteUnimportedPackages": true,
    "go.useCodeSnippetsOnFunctionSuggest": true,
    "go.useCodeSnippetsOnFunctionSuggestWithoutType": true,
    "go.lintTool": "golint",
    "go.lintOnSave": "workspace"
}

I didn't use "go.useLanguageServer"

This happens to me both go.useLanguageServer and without. It started happening recently. It make autocompleteUnimportedPackages impossible to use. Reverting to 0.9.2 makes the problem disappear.

Thanks a lot, I'll revert it~

I'm having this same issue. Something in v0.10 broke.

Autocompletion seems to suggest the correct symbols, but it also suggests a bunch of other unimported packages, and the cursor for some reason suggests the package I'm trying to complete members for.

Example:

That same snippet, with the autocomplete box scrolled up:

I have tried completely uninstalling Go, VS Code, the VS Code Go extension, and removing every single customization setting from VS Code. Nothing seems to help.

This is using the latest versions of the tools VS Code auto installs as of today (2019-04-26), since I completely removed and reinstalled everything. I'm also not using modules yet.

As mentioned earlier this thread, reverting to 0.9.2 fixes the issue. I'm just adding this for additional information if it is helpful.

Sample code:

package password

import (
	"crypto/rand"
)

func randomInt() (int, error) {
	var b []byte
	rand. // autocompleting here fails to sort properly and suggests a lot of unimported packages
}

Go settings:

{
    "go.autocompleteUnimportedPackages": false,
    "go.useCodeSnippetsOnFunctionSuggest": false,
    "go.useCodeSnippetsOnFunctionSuggestWithoutType": false,
}

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create a new package.
2. Import anything.
3. Attempt to use autocomplete on the imported package.

FYI @ramya-rao-a -- do you have any idea which 0.10 changes might be related? And thanks for the wonderful plugin!

I have the same problem:

• VSCode Version: 1.33.1, 51b0b28134d51361cf996d2f0a1c698247aeabd8, x64
• OS Version: macOS Sierra, 10.12.6

I backed to 0.9.2, and it solved. Thanks for the suggestion! Coding is impossible with 0.10.

[ramya-rao-a]

Hello all,

Thanks for reporting the issue. This is definitely a regression i.e. this wasnt a problem in the previous version of this extension (0.9.2).

I have pushed a fix for this. Please try the latest beta version of this extension which has the fix for this and let me know how it goes.

If a couple of you can confirm the fix, I will release an update soon

[szyhf]

@ramya-rao-a Thanks a lot !!

[malexdev]

@ramya-rao-a The beta version fixes the issue for me. Thanks for the quick response!

It also broke my tab size settings - I went from 2 space sized tabs to 8 space sized tabs (ignoring my VSCode settings, which were still set to 2 spaces). But I imagine that's just something to do with the fact that it's a beta version.

[ramya-rao-a]

Apologies on the tab size change
It should be back to normal in the beta update(0.10.2-beta.2) that I just released

[malexdev]

@ramya-rao-a No worries here. That fixed everything perfectly. Thanks so much!

[ramya-rao-a]

The fix to this has been released in the latest update (0.10.2)

So the GO: Autocomplete Unimported Packages option isn't work now? When I try to use this feature and this option is checked, it seem nothing happened and no autocompletion . It's a problem since I using gopls and seem like no one mentioned before.

[ramya-rao-a]

@fintanchen Is your project under your GOPATH or are you using Go modules?

If you are using Go modules, then yes this feature doesnt work in such cases and I have logged #2484 to track next steps.

If you are not using Go modules, then this feature will work regardless of whether you use gopls or not

[keyvchan]

@ramya-rao-a Thans for your work. I am using Go modules. I will check #2484.
