Go Dep - sync Gopkg.toml with vendor

Question

Is there a way to create or sync Gokpkg.toml with the packages that i import in my .go files? If my Gopkg.toml is empty and I run dep ensure , it would download all the packages that I import in my code to the vendor folder but it won't update the Gopkg.toml file. It came up when I had to migrate a legacy project that didn't use a package manager to using dep in the simplest way possible by just creating a Gopkg.toml that contains the latest version of all the packages that I already import instead of running dep ensure -add ... manually for every package. Is there such command?

Answer 1

Remove your Gopkg.toml file and just run dep init and then dep ensure . It will create your Gopkg.toml file and automatically set all of the dependencies.
