FAQPage Schema
How do I set up a Go CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions, linting, and race detection?

Set up Go CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions by configuring a matrix of Go versions, running tests with the -race flag, and enforcing go mod tidy checks. This skill automates production-grade pipelines with reliable testing and linting gates.

What is the best way to automate vulnerability scanning and SAST for Go projects?

Automate Go vulnerability scanning and SAST by integrating govulncheck and static analysis into your CI workflow. This provides automated security checks and code quality gates across all tested Go versions.

Does this Go CI pipeline support code coverage reporting and automated releases?

Yes, the Go CI pipeline supports code coverage reporting through codecov integration and automates releases using GoReleaser. It combines testing, coverage upload, and binary distribution in reusable workflows.

Can I use golangci-lint and GoReleaser in a reusable GitHub Actions workflow?

Yes, you can use golangci-lint and GoReleaser within reusable GitHub Actions workflows. The skill provides per-project configuration to standardize linting, building, and releasing Go projects of any size.

Why does my Go CI pipeline fail go mod tidy checks in GitHub Actions?

Go CI pipelines fail go mod tidy checks when module dependencies are not properly aligned. This skill enforces go mod tidy verification in its workflow matrix to ensure dependency consistency across different Go versions.
