Code Completion fails for getgb.io / slide based projects

[conikeec]

Hey

I have been attempting to migrate majority of my projects to getgb.io based vendoring/build system.
For any such projects, I use direnv to add the vendor folder (for the specific project) to $GOPATH environment variable.

Where is $GOOT and $GOPATH being set.

My current alias to initiate Visual studio from the command line is

!/bin/bash

export GOPATH=$(PWD)/vendor:$GOPATH
VSCODE_CWD="$PWD" open -n -b "com.microsoft.VSCode" --args $*

Yet my $GOPATH is not being reset in visual studio to include the vendor directory

Am I missing anything here?

I've been experiencing this same issue with OSX and the fish shell. I've found that it only works when your launcher script exports a new environment variable that has not been defined before but it will fail with variables like GOPATH that were probably defined already. It could be related to @lukehoban's comment: #220 (comment).

Alternatively, I'm looking at defining go.gopath in my workspace settings, it works now but I think it'd be best when variables like workspaceRoot are expanded in settings so I don't have to use absolute paths. Related issues: microsoft/vscode#3759 and microsoft/vscode#2809.

@conikeec @sevein
There have been quite a few changes in both VS Code and the Go extension since last March.
Do you still have issues with GOPATH?

Closing this issue as it is very old and we havent heard back from the OP.

@conikeec @sevein if you do have any updates, please comment here and I can re-open the issue
