Glide is a vendor package manager for Go, managing a project's vendor directory with semantic version constraints defined in glide.yaml. It is now mostly unmaintained, as the Go community has moved to Go Modules.

Use cases

  • manage vendored dependencies for a Go project
  • pin Go package versions with semantic version constraints
  • resolve transitive dependencies in Go before modules
  • alias a forked Go package import path
  • install Go dependencies into the vendor directory

When to choose

  • maintaining a legacy pre-Go-Modules codebase that already uses glide.yaml
  • working in an environment that cannot adopt Go Modules

When to avoid

  • starting any new Go project - use Go Modules instead
  • you need actively maintained tooling or support for modern Go workflows
