This action sets up a go environment for use in actions by:
2019-06-19 09:44:17 -04:00
2019-08-13 16:31:11 -04:00
- optionally downloading and caching a version of Go by version and adding to PATH
2019-07-17 10:50:58 -04:00
- registering problem matchers for error output

# V2
2020-02-09 14:39:34 -05:00
2020-04-16 18:52:17 -04:00
The V2 offers:
- Adds GOBIN to the PATH
2020-02-09 14:39:34 -05:00
- Proxy Support
- `stable` input
- Check latest version
2020-02-09 14:39:34 -05:00
- Bug Fixes (including issues around version matching and semver)
The action will first check the local cache for a version match. If a version is not found locally, it will pull it from the `main` branch of the [go-versions](https://github.com/actions/go-versions/blob/main/versions-manifest.json) repository. On miss or failure, it will fall back to downloading directly from [go dist](https://storage.googleapis.com/golang). To change the default behavior, please use the [check-latest input](#check-latest-version).
Matching by [semver spec](https://github.com/npm/node-semver):
2020-02-09 14:39:34 -05:00
```yaml
steps:
2021-11-08 05:28:08 -05:00
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: actions/setup-go@v2
with:
go-version: '^1.13.1' # The Go version to download (if necessary) and use.
- run: go version
2020-02-09 14:39:34 -05:00
```
2020-02-10 19:18:01 -05:00
Matching an unstable pre-release:
```yaml
steps:
2021-11-08 05:28:08 -05:00
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: actions/setup-go@v2
with:
stable: 'false'
go-version: '1.14.0-rc1' # The Go version to download (if necessary) and use.
- run: go version
2020-02-10 19:18:01 -05:00
```
2019-07-17 10:50:58 -04:00
# Usage
See [action.yml](action.yml)
## Basic:
2019-07-17 10:50:58 -04:00
```yaml
2019-07-25 21:28:46 -04:00
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: actions/setup-go@v2
with:
go-version: '1.16.1' # The Go version to download (if necessary) and use.
- run: go run hello.go
```
## Check latest version:
The `check-latest` flag defaults to `false`. Use the default or set `check-latest` to `false` if you prefer stability and if you want to ensure a specific Go version is always used.
If `check-latest` is set to `true`, the action first checks if the cached version is the latest one. If the locally cached version is not the most up-to-date, a Go version will then be downloaded. Set `check-latest` to `true` if you want the most up-to-date Go version to always be used.
> Setting `check-latest` to `true` has performance implications as downloading Go versions is slower than using cached versions.
```yaml
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
2021-11-08 05:28:08 -05:00
- uses: actions/setup-go@v2

go-version: '1.14'

- run: go run hello.go
