# Errcheck is a program for checking for unchecked errors in go programs. These unchecked errors can be critical bugs in some cases [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
- errcheck
# Checks that sentinel errors are prefixed with the `Err` and error types are suffixed with the `Error`. [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
- errname
# errorlint is a linter for that can be used to find code that will cause problems with the error wrapping scheme introduced in Go 1.13. [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
# Gci controls golang package import order and makes it always deterministic. [fast: true, auto-fix: false]
- gci
# Provides diagnostics that check for bugs, performance and style issues. [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
- gocritic
# Linter for Go source code that specializes in simplifying a code [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
- gosimple
# Vet examines Go source code and reports suspicious constructs, such as Printf calls whose arguments do not align with the format string [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
- govet
# Detects when assignments to existing variables are not used [fast: true, auto-fix: false]
- ineffassign
# Finds commonly misspelled English words in comments [fast: true, auto-fix: true]
- misspell
# Finds naked returns in functions greater than a specified function length [fast: true, auto-fix: false]
- nakedret
# Staticcheck is a go vet on steroids, applying a ton of static analysis checks [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
# Checks for misuse of Sprintf to construct a host with port in a URL.
- nosprintfhostport
# checks whether Err of rows is checked successfully in `sql.Rows` [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
- rowserrcheck
# Checks that sql.Rows and sql.Stmt are closed. [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
- sqlclosecheck
# Remove unnecessary type conversions [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
- unconvert
disable:
# Checks for dangerous unicode character sequences [fast: true, auto-fix: false]
# not needed because github does that out of the box
- bidichk
# containedctx is a linter that detects struct contained context.Context field [fast: true, auto-fix: false]
# using contextcheck which looks more active
- containedctx
# checks function and package cyclomatic complexity [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
# not use because gocognit is used
- cyclop
# The owner seems to have abandoned the linter. Replaced by unused.
# deprecated, replaced by unused
- deadcode
# check declaration order and count of types, constants, variables and functions [fast: true, auto-fix: false]
# FUTURE: IMO it sometimes makes sense to declare consts or types after a func
- decorder
# Go linter that checks if package imports are in a list of acceptable packages [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
# not required because of dependabot
- depguard
# Checks assignments with too many blank identifiers (e.g. x, _, _, _, := f()) [fast: true, auto-fix: false]
# FUTURE: old code is not compatible
- dogsled
# Tool for code clone detection [fast: true, auto-fix: false]
# FUTURE: old code is not compatible
- dupl
# checks for duplicate words in the source code
# not sure if it makes sense
- dupword
# check for two durations multiplied together [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
# FUTURE: checks for accident `1 * time.Second * time.Second`
- durationcheck
# Checks types passed to the json encoding functions. Reports unsupported types and optionally reports occations, where the check for the returned error can be omitted. [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
# FUTURE: use asap, because we use json alot. nice feature is possiblity to check if err check is required
- errchkjson
# execinquery is a linter about query string checker in Query function which reads your Go src files and warning it finds
# FUTURE: might find some errors in sql queries
- execinquery
# Checks if all struct's fields are initialized [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
# deprecated
- exhaustivestruct
# Checks if all structure fields are initialized
# Not all fields have to be initialized
- exhaustruct
# checks for pointers to enclosing loop variables [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
# FUTURE: finds bugs hard to find, could occur much later
#deprecated]: Golint differs from gofmt. Gofmt reformats Go source code, whereas golint prints out style mistakes [fast: false, auto-fix: false]
# ignored in favor of goimports
- golint
# An analyzer to detect magic numbers. [fast: true, auto-fix: false]
# FUTURE: not that critical at the moment
- gomnd
# Manage the use of 'replace', 'retract', and 'excludes' directives in go.mod. [fast: true, auto-fix: false]
# FUTURE: not a problem at the moment
- gomoddirectives
# Allow and block list linter for direct Go module dependencies. This is different from depguard where there are different block types for example version constraints and module recommendations. [fast: true, auto-fix: false]
# FUTURE: maybe interesting because of licenses
- gomodguard
# Checks that printf-like functions are named with `f` at the end [fast: true, auto-fix: false]
