palantir/godel: Go tool for formatting, checking, building, distributing and publishing projects

gödel is a Go build tool that provides tasks for configuring, formatting, checking, testing, building and publishing Go projects in a declarative, consistent and reproducible manner across different platforms and environments. gödel can be used in both local development environments and for verifying the correctness of project in CI environments. gödel uses declarative configuration to define the parameters for a project and provides an executable that orchestrates build tasks using standard Go commands. It centralizes project configuration and eliminates the need for custom build scripts that conflate configuration with logic. gödel is designed to be portable, fast and lightweight -- adding it to a project consists of copying a single file and directory into the project and adds less than 50kb of version-controlled material.

gödel is also highly extensible and configurable. The core functionality of gödel is provided by plugins and assets, and it is easy to write new plugins or assets and to configure a gödel instance to use custom plugins or assets as needed.

Features -------- The following features are provided by a default gödel installation (either as builtin tasks or default plugin tasks):

• Add to a project by running the godelinit program
• ./godelw git-hooks installs Git commit hook that formats files on commit
• ./godelw goland creates and configures a GoLand project for the project
• Supports configuring directories and files that should be excluded by the tool
• ./godelw format formats all code in a project
• ./godelw lint runs a variety of code linting checks on all the code in a project
