Virtualgo (vg) is a CLI tool providing workspace-based development for Go, similar to Python's virtualenv. It manages isolated GOPATH workspaces with version-pinned dependencies and executables, building on top of tools like dep.
Use cases
- create isolated workspaces for go projects
- pin versions of go executables like linters and codegen tools
- use locally checked out dependencies across multiple projects
- avoid vendor directory issues with go test
- automatically activate a workspace when cd-ing into a project
When to choose
- working on legacy Go projects predating Go Modules
- needing isolated GOPATH workspaces with pinned tool versions
When to avoid
- starting a new Go project — use Go Modules instead
- needing a maintained dependency tool — the project is unmaintained since Go Modules adoption
