Vim plugins for Go (http://golang.org)
======================================
To use all the Vim plugins, add these lines to your $HOME/.vimrc.
" Some Linux distributions set filetype in /etc/vimrc.
" Clear filetype flags before changing runtimepath to force Vim to reload them.
filetype off
filetype plugin indent off
set runtimepath+=$GOROOT/misc/vim
filetype plugin indent on
syntax on
If you want to select fewer plugins, use the instructions in the rest of
this file.
A popular configuration is to gofmt Go source files when they are saved.
To do that, add this line to the end of your $HOME/.vimrc.
autocmd FileType go autocmd BufWritePre <buffer> Fmt
Vim syntax highlighting
-----------------------
To install automatic syntax highlighting for GO programs:
1. Copy or link the filetype detection script to the ftdetect directory
underneath your vim runtime directory (normally $HOME/.vim/ftdetect)
2. Copy or link syntax/go.vim to the syntax directory underneath your vim
runtime directory (normally $HOME/.vim/syntax). Linking this file rather
than just copying it will ensure any changes are automatically reflected
in your syntax highlighting.
3. Add the following line to your .vimrc file (normally $HOME/.vimrc):
syntax on
In a typical unix environment you might accomplish this using the following
commands:
mkdir -p $HOME/.vim/ftdetect
mkdir -p $HOME/.vim/syntax
mkdir -p $HOME/.vim/autoload/go
ln -s $GOROOT/misc/vim/ftdetect/gofiletype.vim $HOME/.vim/ftdetect/
ln -s $GOROOT/misc/vim/syntax/go.vim $HOME/.vim/syntax
ln -s $GOROOT/misc/vim/autoload/go/complete.vim $HOME/.vim/autoload/go
echo "syntax on" >> $HOME/.vimrc
Vim filetype plugins
--------------------
To install one of the available filetype plugins:
1. Same as 1 above.
2. Copy or link ftplugin/go.vim to the ftplugin directory underneath your vim
runtime directory (normally $HOME/.vim/ftplugin). Copy or link one or more
additional plugins from ftplugin/go/*.vim to the Go-specific subdirectory
in the same place ($HOME/.vim/ftplugin/go/*.vim).
3. Add the following line to your .vimrc file (normally $HOME/.vimrc):
filetype plugin on
Vim indentation plugin
----------------------
To install automatic indentation:
1. Same as 1 above.
2. Copy or link indent/go.vim to the indent directory underneath your vim
runtime directory (normally $HOME/.vim/indent).
3. Add the following line to your .vimrc file (normally $HOME/.vimrc):
filetype indent on
Vim compiler plugin
-------------------
To install the compiler plugin:
1. Same as 1 above.
2. Copy or link compiler/go.vim to the compiler directory underneath your vim
runtime directory (normally $HOME/.vim/compiler).
3. Activate the compiler plugin with ":compiler go". To always enable the
compiler plugin in Go source files add an autocommand to your .vimrc file
(normally $HOME/.vimrc):
autocmd FileType go compiler go
Godoc plugin
------------
To install godoc plugin:
1. Same as 1 above.
2. Copy or link plugin/godoc.vim to $HOME/.vim/plugin/godoc,
syntax/godoc.vim to $HOME/.vim/syntax/godoc.vim,
and autoload/go/complete.vim to $HOME/.vim/autoload/go/complete.vim.
