A first-party Go package (corresponding to a directory with `.go
` files).
Expects that there is a `go_mod
` target in its directory or in an ancestor directory.
Backend: <span style="color: purple"><code>pants.backend.experimental.go</code></span>
## <code>dependencies</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>Iterable[str] | None</code></span> <span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
Addresses to other targets that this target depends on, e.g. ['helloworld/subdir:lib', 'helloworld/main.py:lib', '3rdparty:reqs#django'].
This augments any dependencies inferred by Pants, such as by analyzing your imports. Use `./pants dependencies
` or `./pants peek
` on this target to get the final result.
See [Targets and BUILD files](🔗)#target-addresses and [Targets and BUILD files](🔗)#target-generation for more about how addresses are formed, including for generated targets. You can also run `./pants list ::
` to find all addresses in your project, or `./pants list dir:
` to find all addresses defined in that directory.
If the target is in the same BUILD file, you can leave off the BUILD file path, e.g. `:tgt
` instead of `helloworld/subdir:tgt
`. For generated first-party addresses, use `./
` for the file path, e.g. `./main.py:tgt
`; for all other generated targets, use `:tgt#generated_name
`.
You may exclude dependencies by prefixing with `!
`, e.g. `['!helloworld/subdir:lib', '!./sibling.txt']
`. Ignores are intended for false positives with dependency inference; otherwise, simply leave off the dependency from the BUILD file.
## <code>description</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>str | None</code></span> <span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
A human-readable description of the target.
Use `./pants list --documented ::
` to see all targets with descriptions.
## <code>skip_gofmt</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>bool</code></span> <span style="color: green">default: <code>False</code></span> backend: <span style="color: green"><code>pants.backend.experimental.go</code></span>
If true, don't run gofmt on this package.
## <code>skip_tests</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>bool</code></span> <span style="color: green">default: <code>False</code></span>
If true, don't run this package's tests.
## <code>sources</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>Iterable[str] | None</code></span> <span style="color: green">default: <code>('*.go', '*.s')</code></span>
A list of files and globs that belong to this target.
Paths are relative to the BUILD file's directory. You can ignore files/globs by prefixing them with `!
`.
Example: `sources=['example.ext', 'test_*.ext', '!test_ignore.ext']
`.
## <code>tags</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>Iterable[str] | None</code></span> <span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
Arbitrary strings to describe a target.
For example, you may tag some test targets with 'integration_test' so that you could run `./pants --tag='integration_test' test ::
` to only run on targets with that tag.
## <code>test_timeout</code>
<span style="color: purple">type: <code>int | None</code></span> <span style="color: green">default: <code>None</code></span>
A timeout (in seconds) when running this package's tests.
If this field is not set, the test will never time out.
