How to use

GoLand displays the code authors if version control integration is enabled. If you click a code author’s name, the Annotate with Git blame sidebar opens, letting you see who introduced what changes.

You can now generate tests for functions with generic parameters.

To generate a test for a generic function, click the function, press ⌘⇧T (macOS) / Ctrl+Shift+T (Windows/Linux), and select Test for function from the popup.

Right-click the root folder of your project and navigate to New | Go Workspace File. When you select it, a go.work file will appear in your root folder. Existing Go modules will automatically be added to the go.work file.

Also, you can generate go.work from go.mod if you have replace directives there. Place the caret on a replace directive, press ⌥⏎ (macOS) / Alt+Enter (Windows/Linux) to see all available intention actions, and select the Generate ‘go.work’ using ‘replace’ directives quick-fix.

Go 1.19 has added support for links, lists, and new headings in doc comments. Now GoLand also supports these new features.

Clicking on doc links leads to the referenced element while clicking on a text link leads to a text-link definition.

Both text and doc links are rendered as links in the Quick Documentation popup and the Documentation tool window.

Headings (#) and lists (*, +, 1.) are also supported.

How to use:

To see documentation about an element in your code, hover the mouse over the element or click it and press F1 (macOS) / Ctrl+Q (Windows/Linux). To open documentation in the Documentation tool window, press F1 (macOS) / Ctrl+Q (Windows/Linux) twice.

You can select a piece of code, choose the Open in option, and then click Playground. This will open a scratch file with a toolbar that contains the same options you have when using the Go Playground.

You can format and share your code, change the Go version, run your code using the Go playground server, or run it locally.
