vendorlint

vendorlint was designed to help me prevent imports that have not been added to the vendor directory. vendorlint will also output the source file line/column for the missing dependency.

Usage

Usage: vendorlint [-t] package [package ...]
-t	include test dependencies
-v	vendorlint version number

Example Output

dweb@dweb-linux vendorlint (master*) $ ./bin/vendorlint .
[X] Dependency not vendored: github.com/fatih/color
* vendorlint/lint.go:14:2
[X] Dependency not vendored: github.com/kisielk/gotool
* vendorlint/lint.go:15:2

Acknowledgments

I was inspired by vendorcheck but wanted to add extra functionality. It became clear that what I wanted to add would result a complete rewrite. I decide to just start something new.
