Go

Project Structure

• pkg - shared common packages across coinstacks

• internal - internal utility packages

• coinstacks/{coin} - coin specific logic

Dependencies

• go

• goimports

• golangci-lint

Notes

• It is suggested configuring your editor of choice to utilize the following tooling:

  • gopls language server

  • golangci-lint to match the linter used in CI

  • goimports to match the formatting run on git pre-commit hook (default behavior when using gopls)

• Visual Studio Code expects any golang projects to be opened up with a go.mod file at the root directory for the tooling to work properly, so be sure to open up the project at unchained/go

Initial Setup

• Install Golang

  make sure GOPATH is set in your shell environment, since it's needed for docker-compose setup to work properly

• Make coinstacks

  cd go && make

• Copy sample env file:

  cp go/cmd/ethereum/sample.env go/cmd/ethereum/.env

• Go to unchained/ and install dependencies by running yarn (which will also prepare the git pre-commit hook with goimports)

  yarn
