Ok, I wanted to try my hand at go. I've played with other languages but I'm no expert. I'm not sure how this is supposed to work on FreeBSD but godoc raises 'command not found'.

I thought since it was a tool that it might come in a separate package, but:
Code: 
[:15-03-07 19:16]larry@/home/larry%go list
can't load package: package .: no buildable Go source files in /home/larry
Is there a guide to go on FreeBSD? Or am I just doing things wrong? FYI I was able to run/compile 'hello world' so something is working.

Can anyone give me some pointers or point me to some?
 
Ok, I don't know if this is the best way (probably not ;)) but I installed vim-go through Vundle; that gave me " GoInstallBinaries" which gave me " go get"

Then

Code: 
go get golang.org/x/tools/cmd/godoc

and ... Voilà!
 
I spent a few days setting up lang/go on Linux about a month ago and didn't go beyond the tinkering stage so I don't remember much except needing to "get" a few packages so I could do anything so you might have missed a step in getting those.

(I switched the company to FreeBSD immediately after that. Yay!)
 
I don't doubt that there may be more to do but...

godoc works!
Code: 
[freebsd:15-03-08 19:04]larry@/home/larry/ycm_build%godoc
