@nx-go/nx-go v3.0.0

Go Nx plugin

First-class support of Go in a Nx workspace

✨ Features

• Generate Go applications and libraries in seconds within your Nx workspace
• Execute, build, format and test projects with a customizable configuration
• Efficient caching and dependency graph tools for Go projects
• Use official Go commands in the background

🚀 Getting started

You need to have a stable version of Go installed on your machine. And.. you are ready!

Generate a Nx workspace with Go support

npx create-nx-workspace go-workspace --preset=@nx-go/nx-go

Add to an exisiting workspace

nx add @nx-go/nx-go

Migrate to latest version

nx migrate @nx-go/nx-go

Don't want to use a multi-module Go workspace?

The plugin configures a multi-module Go workspace by default, to simplify project management and improve the quality of the Nx graph. If you don't want to take advantage of this feature, you can use generator convert-to-one-mod after the plugin installation. Generators will automatically adapt to your configuration.

nx g @nx-go/nx-go:convert-to-one-mod
