Go Explorer is a Vim plugin for exploring Go code.

Go Explorer is a work in progress. It's usable, but there's much more to do. Use the Go Explorer issue tracker to report bugs and request features.

The GeDoc command shows documentation for the package specified by spec.

:GeDoc spec 

If spec starts with '', then spec is take as the name of a package imported in the current file. Otherwise spec is taken as a package import path. The GeDoc command supports command completion.

In the documentation viewer, use <c-]> to jump to source code or documentation. If the identifier under the cursor is the name of a declaration, then <c-]> jumps to the source code for the declaration. If the identifier under the cursor is a type, then <c-]> jumps to the documentation for the type. <C-t> jumps back. Use ]] and [[ to move forward and back through declarations in the documentation.

Documentation pages can be opened directly using the godoc:// prefix:

:edit godoc://net/http

To install this plugin with Pathogen, use:

 git clone https://github.com/garyburd/go-explorer.git ~/.vim/bundle/go-explorer

The plugin requires a Go helper program:

 go get github.com/garyburd/go-explorer/src/getool

The plugin and the getool program are tightly coupled. Update both at the same time.

Go Explorer is compatible with vim-go.
