skeleton

skeleton is skeleton codes generator for Go's static analysis tools. skeleton makes easy to develop static analysis tools with x/tools/go/analysis package and x/tools/go/packages package.

x/tools/go/analysis package

x/tools/go/analysis package is for modularizing static analysis tools. x/tools/go/analysis package provides analysis.Analyzer type which represents a unit of modularized static analysis tool.

x/tools/go/analysis package also provides common works of a static analysis tool. Just run the skeleton mylinter command, skeleton generates an *analyzer.Analyzer type initialization code, a test code, and a main.go for an executable which may be run with the go vet command.

The following blog helps to learn about the skeleton.

The following slides describes details of Go's static analysis including the x/tools/go/analysis package.

Installation

There are two diffrent ways to install skeleton by Go versions.

Less than Go1.16

$ go get -u github.com/gostaticanalysis/skeleton/v2

Go1.16 or higher

$ go install github.com/gostaticanalysis/skeleton/v2@latest

How to use

Create a skeleton code with a module path

skeleton receives a module path and generates a skeleton code with the module path. All generated codes are located in a directory which name is the last element of the module path.

When you run skeleton with example.com/mylinter as a module path, skeleton generates the following files.

$ skeleton example.com/mylinter
mylinter
├── cmd
│   └── mylinter
│       └── main.go
├── go.mod
├── mylinter.go
├── mylinter_test.go
└── testdata
    └── src
        └── a
            ├── a.go
            └── go.mod

Analyzer

A static analysis tool which developed with x/tools/go/analysis, is represented by value of *analysis.Analyzer type. In the mylinter case, the value is defined in mylinter.go as a variable which name is Analyzer.

The generated code provides toy implement with inspect.Analyzer. It finds identifiers which name are gopher.

package mylinter

import (
	"go/ast"

	"golang.org/x/tools/go/analysis"
	"golang.org/x/tools/go/analysis/passes/inspect"
	"golang.org/x/tools/go/ast/inspector"
)

const doc = "mylinter is ..."

// Analyzer is ...
var Analyzer = &analysis.Analyzer{
	Name: "mylinter",
	Doc:  doc,
	Run:  run,
	Requires: []*analysis.Analyzer{
		inspect.Analyzer,
	},
}

func run(pass *analysis.Pass) (interface{}, error) {
	inspect := pass.ResultOf[inspect.Analyzer].(*inspector.Inspector)

	nodeFilter := []ast.Node{
		(*ast.Ident)(nil),
	}

	inspect.Preorder(nodeFilter, func(n ast.Node) {
		switch n := n.(type) {
		case *ast.Ident:
			if n.Name == "gopher" {
				pass.Reportf(n.Pos(), "identifier is gopher")
			}
		}
	})

	return nil, nil
}

Test codes

skeleton also generates test codes. x/tools/go/analysis package provides a testing library in analysistest sub package. analysistest.Run runs tests with source codes in testdata/src directory. The second parameter is a path for testdata directory. The third parameter is test target analyzer and remains are packages which are used in tests.

package mylinter_test

import (
	"testing"

	"github.com/gostaticanalysis/example.com/mylinter"
	"github.com/gostaticanalysis/testutil"
	"golang.org/x/tools/go/analysis/analysistest"
)

// TestAnalyzer is a test for Analyzer.
func TestAnalyzer(t *testing.T) {
	testdata := testutil.WithModules(t, analysistest.TestData(), nil)
	analysistest.Run(t, testdata, mylinter.Analyzer, "a")
}

In the mylinter case, the test uses testdata/src/a/a.go file as a test data. mylinter.Analyzer finds gopher identifiers in the source code and report them. In the test side, expected reports are described in comments. The comments must be start with want and a reporting message follows. The reporting message is represented by a regular expression. When the analyzer reports unexpected diagnostics or does not report expected diagnostics, the test will be failed.

package a

func f() {
	// The pattern can be written in regular expression.
	var gopher int // want "pattern"
	print(gopher)  // want "identifier is gopher"
}

When you run go mod tidy and go test, the test will be failed because the analyzer does not report a diagnostic with "pattern".

Executable file

skeleton generates main.go in cmd directory. When you build it and generate an executable file, the executable file must be run via go vet command such as the following. -vettool flag for go vet command specifies an absoluted path for an executable file of own static analysis tool.

$ go vet -vettool=`which mylinter` ./...

Overwrite a directory

If the directory already exists, skeleton gives you with following options.

$ skeleton example.com/mylinter
mylinter already exists, overwrite?
[1] No (Exit)
[2] Remove and create new directory
[3] Overwrite existing files with confirmation
[4] Create new files only

Without cmd directory

If you don't need cmd directory, you can set false to -cmd flag.

$ skeleton -cmd=false example.com/mylinter
mylinter
├── go.mod
mylinter.go
├── mylinter_test.go
└─ testdata
    └─ testdata
        testdata └── src
            Go.mod
            go.mod

Without go.mod file

skeleton generates a go.mod file by default. When you would like to use skeleton in a directory which is already under Go Modules management, you can set false to -gomod option as following.

$ skeleton -gomod=false example.com/mylinter
mylinter
├── cmd
│└── mylinter
└─ main.go
├── mylinter.go
mylinter_test.go
└─ testdata
    testdata └── src
        testdata └─ a
            Go.mod
            go.mod

SKELETON_PREFIX environment variable

When SKELETON_PREFIX environment variable is set, skeleton puts it as a prefix to a module path.

$ SKELETON_PREFIX=example.com skeleton mylinter
$ head -1 mylinter/go.mod
module example.com/mylinter

It is useful with direnv such as following.

$ cat ~/repos/gostaticanalysis/.envrc
export SKELETON_PREFIX=github.com/gostaticanalysis

If SKELETON_PREFIX environment variable is specified but the -gomod flag is false, skeleton prioritizes -gomod flag.

singlechecker and multichecker

skeleton uses unitchecker package in main.go by default. You can change it to singlechecker package or multichecker package by specifying the -checker flag.

singlechecker package runs a single analyzer and multichecker package runs multiple analyzers. These packages does not need go vet command to run.

The following is an example of using singlechecker package.

$ skeleton -checker=single example.com/mylinter
$ cat cmd/mylinter/main.go
package main

import (
		"mylinter"
		"golang.org/x/tools/go/analysis/singlechecker"
)

func main() { singlechecker.Main(mylinter.Analyzer) }

Using singlechecker package or multichecker package seems easy way. But when you use them, you cannot receive benefit of using go vet. If you don't have particular reason of using singlechecker package or multichecker package, you should use unitchecker. It means you should not use -checker flag in most cases.

Kinds of skeleton code

skeleton can change kind of skeleton code by using -kind flag.

  • -kind=inspect (default): using inspect.Analyzer
  • -kind=ssa: using the static single assignment (SSA, Static Single Assignment) form generated by buildssa.Analyzer
  • -kind=codegen: code generator.
  • -kind=packages: using x/tools/go/packages package

Create code generator

When you gives codegen to -kind flag, skeleton generates skeleton code of code generation tool with gostaticanalysis/codegen package.

$ skeleton -kind=codegen example.com/mycodegen
mycodegen
├── cmd
│   └── mycodegen
│       └── main.go
├── go.mod
├── mycodegen.go
├── mycodegen_test.go
└── testdata
    └── src
        └── a
            ├── a.go
            ├── go.mod
            └── mycodegen.golden

gostaticanalysis/codegen package is an experimental, please be careful.

golangci-lint plugin

skeleton generates codes that can be used as a plugin of golangci-lint by specifying -plugin flag.

$ skeleton -plugin example.com/mylinter
mylinter
├── cmd
│   └── mylinter
│       └── main.go
├── go.mod
├── mylinter.go
├── mylinter_test.go
├── plugin
│   └── main.go
└── testdata
    └── src
        └── a
            ├── a.go
            └── go.mod

You can see the documentation.

$ skeleton -plugin example.com/mylinter
$ go build -buildmode=plugin -o path_to_plugin_dir example.com/mylinter/plugin/mylinter

skeleton provides a way which can specify flags to your plugin with -ldflags. If you would like to know the details of it, please read the generated skeleton code.

$ skeleton -plugin example.com/mylinter
$ go build -buildmode=plugin -ldflags "-X 'main.flags=-funcs log.Fatal'" -o path_to_plugin_dir example.com/mylinter/plugin/mylinter

golangci-lint is built with CGO_ENABLED=0 by default. So you should rebuilt with CGO_ENABLED=1 because plugin package in the standard library uses CGO. And you should same version of modules with golangci-lint such as golang.org/x/tools/go module. The plugin system for golangci-lint is not recommended way.
