CI

golang plugin for asdf version manager

Requirements

MacOS

Linux (Debian)

Install

asdf plugin-add golang https://github.com/kennyp/asdf-golang.git

Use

Check the asdf readme for instructions on how to install & manage versions of go.

GOROOT

To set GOROOT in your shell's initialization add the following:

zsh shell
. ~/.asdf/plugins/golang/set-env.zsh

fish shell
. ~/.asdf/plugins/golang/set-env.fish

When using go get or go install

After using go get or go install to install a package you need to run asdf reshim golang to get any new shims.

Default go get packages

asdf-golang can automatically install a default set of packages with go get -u $PACKAGE right after installing a new Go version. To enable this feature, provide a $HOME/.default-golang-pkgs file that lists one package per line, for example:

// allows comments
github.com/Dreamacro/clash
github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit

You can specify a non-default location of this file by setting a ASDF_GOLANG_DEFAULT_PACKAGES_FILE variable.

Version selection

When using .tool-versions or .go-version, the exact version specified in the file will be selected.

When using go.mod, the highest compatible version that is currently installed will be selected. As per the Go modules reference, that is the highest minor version with a matching major version. For example, a go 1.14 directive in a go.mod file will result in the highest installed 1.minor.patch being selected, not necessarily 1.14.patch.

Note: Users can explicitly exclude or include go.mod and go.work by setting ASDF_GOLANG_MOD_VERSION_ENABLED. Currently it defaults to true, but that may change in the future, so it should be explicitly set.

Architecture Override

The ASDF_GOLANG_OVERWRITE_ARCH variable can be used to override the architecture that is used for determining which Go build to download. The primary use case is when attempting to install an older version of Go for use on an Apple M1 computer as Go was not being built for ARM at the time.

Without ASDF_GOLANG_OVERWRITE_ARCH

> asdf install golang 1.15.8
Platform 'darwin' supported!
URL: https://dl.google.com/go/go1.15.8.darwin-arm64.tar.gz returned status 404

With ASDF_GOLANG_OVERWRITE_ARCH

> ASDF_GOLANG_OVERWRITE_ARCH=amd64 asdf install golang 1.15.8
Platform 'darwin' supported!

Skipping Checksums

By default we try to verify the checksum of each install but ocassionally that's not possible. If you need to skip the checksum for some reason just set ASDF_GOLANG_SKIP_CHECKSUM.
