go.mod 中的模块名称别名

Question

Is there a way to use a shorter name representation/mapping in modules?

I have a project, with an url naming:

module github.com/<org>/<project>    
go 1.14

Would be nice to be able to do:

import "<short_name>/<project>/package_folder"

From a go.mod , something like:

module github.com/<org>/<project> => short_name
go 1.14

Answer 1

Nope, there is no way to define an alias in the go.mod file.

It was proposed but rejected for reasons explained here .

Answer 2

I've run into this recently with a poorly named internal repo. Go doesn't do this, but with some git magic you can get close.

In your ~/.gitconfig add something like this: [url "ssh://git@github.com//"] insteadOf = https://github.com/ <go_mod_org>/<go_mod_repo>
