imports is a CLI tool that generates a dependency graph of the internal imports of a Go project.

Prerequisites

  • Debian: apt install graphviz
  • macOS: brew install graphviz

Usage

cd litestream

Generate graph

go mod download
go run github.com/xpetit/imports@latest ./cmd/litestream > litestream.gv
dot -O -Tsvg litestream.gv

The resulting file litestream.gv.svg :

Depth

You can limit the depth for projects with bigger import graphs:

git clone https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy.git
cd caddy
go mod download
go run github.com/xpetit/imports@latest -depth 2 ./cmd/caddy > caddy.gv
dot -O -Tsvg caddy.gv
