go-pry is an interactive REPL for Go that lets you drop into your code at any point via a pry.Pry() statement. It works by rewriting Go source files to inject reflection-based code exposing in-scope variables, then wrapping the standard go command.
Use cases
- inspect variables mid-execution in a Go program
- experiment with Go code interactively like a REPL
- debug Go applications by dropping into a shell at a specific point
- explore package APIs with autocompletion from inside running code
When to choose
- you want a Ruby Pry-style interactive debugging shell in Go
- you need to inspect live program state without a full debugger setup
When to avoid
- you need a production-safe debugger (it rewrites source files)
- you prefer standard tooling like delve
- your project cannot tolerate source modification during builds
