What the argument selects depends 37 on what is installed in GOROOT and GOPATH, as well as the form of the argument, 38 which is schematically one of these: 39 40 go doc <pkg> 41 go doc <sym>[.<methodOrField>] 42 go doc [<pkg>.]<sym>[.<methodOrField>] 43 go doc [<pkg>.][<sym>.]<methodOrField> 44 45 The first item in this list matched by the argument is the one whose documentation 46 is printed. (See the examples below.) However, if the argument starts with a capital 47 letter it is assumed to identify a symbol or method in the current directory. 48 49 For packages, the order of scanning is determined lexically in breadth-first order. 50 That is, the package presented is the one that matches the search and is nearest 51 the root and lexically first at its level of the hierarchy. The GOROOT tree is 52 always scanned in its entirety before GOPATH. 53 54 If there is no package specified or matched, the package in the current 55 directory is selected, so "go doc Foo" shows the documentation for symbol Foo in 56 the current package. 57 58 The package path must be either a qualified path or a proper suffix of a 59 path. The go tool's usual package mechanism does not apply: package path 60 elements like . and ... are not implemented by go doc. 61 62 When run with two arguments, the first must be a full package path (not just a 63 suffix), and the second is a symbol, or symbol with method or struct field. 64 This is similar to the syntax accepted by godoc: 65 66 go doc <pkg> <sym>[.<methodOrField>] 67 68 In all forms, when matching symbols, lower-case letters in the argument match 69 either case but upper-case letters match exactly. This means that there may be 70 multiple matches of a lower-case argument in a package if different symbols have 71 different cases. If this occurs, documentation for all matches is printed. 72 73 Examples: 74 go doc 75 Show documentation for current package. 76 go doc Foo 77 Show documentation for Foo in the current package. 78 (Foo starts with a capital letter so it cannot match 79 a package path.) 80 go doc encoding/json 81 Show documentation for the encoding/json package. 82 go doc json 83 Shorthand for encoding/json. 84 go doc json.Number (or go doc json.number) 85 Show documentation and method summary for json.Number. 86 go doc json.Number.Int64 (or go doc json.number.int64) 87 Show documentation for json.Number's Int64 method. 88 go doc cmd/doc 89 Show package docs for the doc command. 90 go doc -cmd cmd/doc 91 Show package docs and exported symbols within the doc command. 92 go doc template.new 93 Show documentation for html/template's New function. 94 (html/template is lexically before text/template) 95 go doc text/template.new # One argument 96 Show documentation for text/template's New function. 97 go doc text/template new # Two arguments 98 Show documentation for text/template's New function. 99 100 At least in the current tree, these invocations all print the 101 documentation for json.Decoder's Decode method: 102 103 go doc json.Decoder.Decode 104 go doc json.decoder.decode 105 go doc json.decode 106 cd go/src/encoding/json; go doc decode 107 108 Flags: 109 -all 110 Show all the documentation for the package. 111 -c 112 Respect case when matching symbols. 113 -cmd 114 Treat a command (package main) like a regular package. 115 Otherwise package main's exported symbols are hidden 116 when showing the package's top-level documentation. 117 -short 118 One-line representation for each symbol. 119 -src 120 Show the full source code for the symbol. This will 121 display the full Go source of its declaration and 122 definition, such as a function definition (including 123 the body), type declaration or enclosing const 124 block. The output may therefore include unexported 125 details. 126 -u 127 Show documentation for unexported as well as exported 128 symbols, methods, and fields. 129 `, 130 } 131 132 func runDoc(cmd *base.Command, args []string) { 133 base.Run(cfg.BuildToolexec, base.Tool("doc"), args) 134 }
