[Question] How to identify which goimports go-plus is running?

[Moataz-E]

Hi,

This information appears to have been previously provided under the "Display Go Information" function. Since then, this function has been removed.

Do you know how can I find out which goimports my go-plus is using?

There are only two options in this order:

• either in $GOPATH/bin
• or somewhere in $PATH

If you are still unsure you can run which -a goimports and see how many goimports come up.

That's the weird thing, I get command unrecognized!

I can see goimports when I run go list ...:

EDIT: Please note that I am using a windows machine.

It seems that you did not add the %GOPATH%/bin folder to your PATH env variable.
In this case you would have to run $env:GOPATH\bin\goimports in powershell (or %GOPATH%\bin\goimports in cmd)

Btw: what are you trying to achieve? Do you have any problems with go-plus itself?

go-plus also adds a panel to the bottom of atom that has a "Go" tab in it. It shows the result go env and may help you troubleshooting your problem.
You can also execute the Golang: Update Tools command in atom to update all the go tools required by go-plus. see https://github.com/joefitzgerald/go-plus/wiki/FAQ#tools

Lukas, you are a god amongst men.

I didn't have %GOPATH%/bin added to my PATH env variable but I had %GOPATH% defined, and that is where go-plus was looking up the tool executables.

Thanks, this answers my question!
