Allow to specify Go version #75

x1ddos · 2020-08-23T20:31:49Z

The linter github action doesn't allow specifying a Go version. It overwrtes it to 1 in https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint-action/blob/1d3f25b/src/install.ts#L60.

It would be very useful if the linter picked the Go version specified in go.mod or at least had an action parameter. I made a working PoC in https://github.com/x1ddos/golangci-lint-action/commit/6f8897f but it's for the action version 1.2.2.

We have a project which can't upgrade to the latest go1.15 and had to remove the action in BitBoxSwiss/bitbox-wallet-app#982.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

theckman · 2020-08-23T20:35:41Z

One thing to note, is that the version in the go.mod file is intended to indicate minimum supported version not desired version. Picking the version specified from that would deviate from the intent of the Modules system, so I'd be reluctant to take that route.

Based on the intent, a module with go 1.14 in the go.mod file should work on 1.15.

x1ddos · 2020-08-23T21:03:05Z

Yeah, good point about minimal supported version. So, maybe just allowing to specify go-version parameter would work best in the end.

Based on the intent, a module with go 1.14 in the go.mod file should work on 1.15.

It should but sometimes doesn't in practice. Here's some output from running the linter on https://github.com/digitalbitbox/bitbox-wallet-app.

Even if it did work, the project we're working on can't officially support go1.15 due to some dependencies like gomobile and gopherjs.

SVilgelm · 2020-08-24T14:14:40Z

IMO the golangci-lint should not call the setup-go, it should be a requirement, or ti should check if the go is installed, the do nothing

x1ddos · 2020-08-24T14:16:30Z

IMO the golangci-lint should not call the setup-go, it should be a requirement, or ti should check if the go is installed, the do nothing

Yeah, that would be another option although more distruptive to all existing users of the action who already rely on setup-go.

camh- · 2020-12-28T22:39:54Z

Perhaps check if Go is already set up and dont run setup-go in that case?

My problem right now is that I am using Go 1.16beta1 - I have setup-go configured in my workflow to install that, but golangci-lint replaces it with 1.15.6 (current latest stable). And now lint is failing because the embed package does not exist in Go 1.15.6.

SVilgelm · 2020-12-29T02:02:57Z

I think the action should not install the go if it is already installed.
I preparad a draft pull request: #144
@camh- Could you please test it on your project with go1.16? Just replace v2 with fix-75 in action:

uses: golangci/golangci-lint-action@fix-75

SVilgelm · 2020-12-29T02:32:02Z

so, there is problem if I use golangci-lint-action then GitHub provides an image with pre installed go 1.14.x, so the go is always installed, I cannot reproduce the situation when go is not installed and the action will install it.

SVilgelm · 2020-12-29T02:35:59Z

so we need to decide Should we install go at all?

camh- · 2020-12-29T02:43:15Z

@SVilgelm Feedback from your first comment, even if it turns out not to be a proper change.

I added this to my workflow:

+    - name: Install golangci-lint
+      uses: golangci/golangci-lint-action@fix-75
+      with:
+        version: v1.33.2
+        args: --version
+    - run: echo '/home/runner/golangci-lint-1.33.2-linux-amd64' >> $GITHUB_PATH

I run it with --version and add to the PATH because I run golangci-lint from my Makefile, so I really only want the action to install lint and not run it. It would be nice if the action would add it to the path, because that follow-up action is a bit hacky, assuming the architecture and duplicating the version string.

But that all worked properly.

Since detecting if Go is installed is not viable, how about another parameter - installGo which defaults to true (current behaviour), so we can just manually switch it off. Additional parameters are a bit messy though, so I understand any hesitation to add more.

SVilgelm · 2020-12-29T03:48:07Z

@camh- I updated the PR with skip-go-installation parameter:

      - name: golangci-lint
        uses: golangci/golangci-lint-action@fix-75
        with:
          skip-go-installation: true

I also added the golangci-lint binary to the PATH: https://github.com/sv-tools/bumptag/pull/64/checks?check_run_id=1620125930

camh- · 2020-12-29T04:29:15Z

@SVilgelm I can confirm that this latest version works too. I've removed my step that adds to the path, and I've added skip-go-installation: true to my lint step.

👍

cameronelliott · 2021-01-29T05:04:47Z

Any chance you guys could do a release with this in it????
Really appreciate the action, thank you.
@SVilgelm

camh- · 2021-01-29T05:20:34Z

Until they do, you can use @master instead of @v2 in your action. That's what I'm doing at the moment: https://github.com/foxygoat/foxtrot/blob/86646cb58e7ebe90daf354e5005143b71a260961/.github/workflows/cicd.yaml#L26

The golangci-lint-action@v2 installed the latest golang version, running it on the 0.12v branch that is pinned to the old go v1.16. This commit calls for setup-go@v2 for v1.16, and then calls golangci-lint with: skip-go-installation: true. as recommended here: golangci/golangci-lint-action#75

The metallb-operator is using go v1.16, however, the lint lane in the CI is downloading the latest go. This change fixes the version to v1.16 by first downloading go v1.16 using actions/setup-go@v2, and then calling golangci-lint with the skip-go-installation: true. This solution was recommended here: golangci/golangci-lint-action#75
