Golang Package Version Dump

go-pvd crawls the transitive dependency graph of one or more Golang packages to report the module versions used. This is helpful if you are trying to determine if a CVE in some package imported from a module actually impacts your project.

Sample output for pvd itself:

% go-pvd .
Module                       Version  Imported package                               Via (at least...)

Installing

• You'll need to download and install go
• go install github.com/bobvawter/go-pvd@latest
• Ensure that $HOME/go/bin is in your $PATH

Usage

Usage:
  go-pvd <go package pattern> ... [flags]

Flags:
  -b, --build stringArray   arguments to pass to the golang build tool (default [-mod=mod])
  -d, --dir string          the source directory (default ".")
  -h, --help                help for go-pvd
  -t, --tests               include test code

The package pattern is anything accepted by the usual golang package parser, so ./pkg/foo will report on packages reachable exactly from foo (relative to the --dir flag), and ./pkg/foo/... would include foo and all sub-packages.
