Vet examines Go source code and reports suspicious constructs, such as Printf calls whose arguments do not align with the format string. Vet uses heuristics that do not guarantee all reports are genuine problems, but it can find errors not caught by the compilers. Vet is normally invoked using the go command by running "go vet": vets the package in the current directory. vets the package whose path is provided. Use "go help packages" to see other ways of specifying which packages to vet. Vet's exit code is 2 for erroneous invocation of the tool, 1 if a problem was reported, and 0 otherwise. Note that the tool does not check every possible problem and depends on unreliable heuristics so it should be used as guidance only, not as a firm indicator of program correctness. By default the -all flag is set so all checks are performed. If any flags are explicitly set to true, only those tests are run. Conversely, if any flag is explicitly set to false, only those tests are disabled. Thus -printf=true runs the printf check, -printf=false runs all checks except the printf check. By default vet uses the object files generated by 'go install some/pkg' to typecheck the code. If the -source flag is provided, vet uses only source code. Available checks: Flag: -asmdecl Mismatches between assembly files and Go function declarations. Flag: -assign Check for useless assignments. Flag: -atomic Common mistaken usages of the sync/atomic package. Flag: -bool Mistakes involving boolean operators. Flag: -buildtags Badly formed or misplaced +build tags. Flag: -cgocall Detect some violations of the cgo pointer passing rules. Flag: -composites Composite struct literals that do not use the field-keyed syntax. Flag: -copylocks Locks that are erroneously passed by value. Flag: -httpresponse Mistakes deferring a function call on an HTTP response before checking whether the error returned with the response was nil. Flag: -lostcancel The cancelation function returned by context.WithCancel, WithTimeout, and WithDeadline must be called or the new context will remain live until its parent context is cancelled. (The background context is never cancelled.) Flag: -methods Non-standard signatures for methods with familiar names, including: Flag: -nilfunc Comparisons between functions and nil. Flag: -printf Suspicious calls to functions in the Printf family, including any functions with these names, disregarding case: The -printfuncs flag can be used to redefine this list. If the function name ends with an 'f', the function is assumed to take a format descriptor string in the manner of fmt.Printf. If not, vet complains about arguments that look like format descriptor strings. It also checks for errors such as using a Writer as the first argument of Printf. Flag: -rangeloops Incorrect uses of range loop variables in closures. Flag: -shadow=false (experimental; must be set explicitly) Variables that may have been unintentionally shadowed. Flag: -shift Shifts equal to or longer than the variable's length. Flag: -structtags Struct tags that do not follow the format understood by reflect.StructTag.Get. Well-known encoding struct tags (json, xml) used with unexported fields. Flag: -tests Mistakes involving tests including functions with incorrect names or signatures and example tests that document identifiers not in the package. Flag: -unreachable Unreachable code. Flag: -unsafeptr Likely incorrect uses of unsafe.Pointer to convert integers to pointers. A conversion from uintptr to unsafe.Pointer is invalid if it implies that there is a uintptr-typed word in memory that holds a pointer value, because that word will be invisible to stack copying and to the garbage collector. Flag: -unusedresult Calls to well-known functions and methods that return a value that is discarded. By default, this includes functions like fmt.Errorf and fmt.Sprintf and methods like String and Error. The flags -unusedfuncs and -unusedstringmethods control the set. These flags configure the behavior of vet: For testing and debugging vet can be run directly by invoking "go tool vet" or just running the binary. Run this way, vet might not have up to date information for imported packages. vets the files named, all of which must be in the same package. recursively descends the directory, vetting each package it finds. Vet is a simple checker for static errors in Go source code. See doc.go for more information.
