Revive is a fast, configurable, and extensible linter for Go, serving as a drop-in replacement for golint. It supports TOML-based rule configuration, custom rules and formatters, and runs significantly faster than golint.
Use cases
- lint go code
- replace golint with a faster alternative
- enforce custom style rules in go projects
- configure linting rules with a toml file
- run static code analysis in ci
- write custom lint rules for go
When to choose
- you want a drop-in golint replacement with more rules and better performance
- you need configurable, extensible linting for go projects
- you want to integrate linting into CI pipelines or editors
When to avoid
- you need a linter for a language other than Go
- you prefer an all-in-one aggregator like golangci-lint managing multiple linters
