Name: gopls-lsp
Author: openclaw

Go language server (gopls) providing code intelligence, refactoring, and analysis for .go files. Use when working with Go code that needs autocomplete, go-to-definition, find references, error detection, or refactoring support.

gopls LSP

Go language server integration providing comprehensive code intelligence through gopls (the official Go language server).

Capabilities

Code intelligence: Autocomplete, go-to-definition, find references
Error detection: Real-time diagnostics for compilation errors and issues
Refactoring: Rename symbols, extract function, organize imports
Analysis: Static analysis, code suggestions, unused code detection
Supported extensions:
```
.go
```

Installation

Install gopls using the Go toolchain:

go install golang.org/x/tools/gopls@latest

Important: Make sure

$GOPATH/bin

(or

$HOME/go/bin

) is in your PATH.

Verify installation:

gopls version

Usage

The language server runs automatically in LSP-compatible editors. For manual operations:

Format code

gofmt -w file.go

Run linter

go vet ./...

Build and test

go build ./...
go test ./...

Configuration

Create

gopls.yaml

in your project or workspace for custom settings:

analyses:
  unusedparams: true
  shadow: true
completeUnimported: true
staticcheck: true

Or configure via environment:

export GOPLS_CONFIG='{"staticcheck": true, "analyses": {"unusedparams": true}}'

Integration Pattern

When editing Go code:

gopls provides real-time diagnostics in LSP editors
Run
```
go fmt
```
or
```
gofmt
```
to format code
Use
```
go vet
```
for additional static analysis
Run tests with
```
go test
```
before committing
