Package checker is a driver for the analysis API. It is an internal package, but is exposed by three different APIs: analysistest, singlechecker, and multichecker. Checker uses go/packages to load the specified packages (plus their dependencies, if any analysis uses facts) from source code. It constructs a graph of actions (analysis passes), whose dependency edges may be "horizontal", when one analyzer depends on the output of another applied to the same package, or "vertical", when an an analyzer consumes facts produced by the same analyzer applied to a dependency package. The graph is executed in parallel, unless -debug=p. Facts are passed from one pass to another in memory. If -debug=s, facts are serialized, to exercise that logic. Findings are printed at the end. The -json flag selects JSON output. Use -debug=t to print timing information. Always use -debug=tp, for sequential mode, when timing. Also: - analysistest: a wrapper for testing checkers - multichecker: a wrapper for writing multi-checker tools Analysis flags are prefixed by name: -findcall.name=foo. - cmd/analyze: a command-line tool based on multichecker - singlechecker: a wrapper for writing single-checker tools Analysis flags are unprefixed: -name=foo. - passes/findcall/cmd/findcall: a standalone tool for the findcall analysis - tests for findcall - tests for pkgfact Change-Id: Icfd4a49cee17e7de1ddb6ec15a62dc667fb2db04 Reviewed-on: https://go-review.googlesource.com/135679 Reviewed-by: Ian Cottrell <iancottrell@google.com> |

This directory does not contain a Go package, but acts as a container for various analyses that implement the golang.org/x/tools/go/analysis API and may be imported into an analysis tool. By convention, each package foo provides the analysis, and each command foo/cmd/foo provides a standalone driver.
