Anyone working on golang support for 2.x? If so, where should I hangout and learn/help/ask questions? :)

Hey, bringing @fast-nail-55400 into the conversation, as he has done some work on this already.

@hundreds-father-404 and I are discussing internally the work we need to do to open source what we’ve already written internally at Toolchain. We wrote enough of a Go plugin to run gofmt and build first-party Go code into a binary. The plugin still needs support for building third-party Go code and for building/running test binaries.

I'm wondering if it would be helpful for us to either start a design doc (or GitHub issue) scoping out what "Go support" means, or possibly a video chat to scope things out The work here will intersect a bit with @bored-art-40741's work on Java support, e.g. adding a generic

compile

goal

I think a design doc (or github issue) would be very helpful

Great. We usually use Google Docs in pants land for bigger projects because it's easier to have threaded conversations via comments. Tom and I can start something based on Tom's prior work on this Exciting stuff 😄

Awesome

Don't forget about dep inference...

Ah, can only assign to people who are pantsbuild org members on github , I guess that makes sense

👍

Hi @echoing-controller-7533 just checking in to see how things are going?

Unfortunately, I haven't had much time to look into this since we spoke last 😞
