SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Prevents the authgear-server repository from drifting away from the curated important Go module set by ensuring the modules reported by make ensure-important-modules-up-to-date are refreshed promptly.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Validation Workflow: Run make ensure-important-modules-up-to-date to detect stale dependencies across ./, ./custombuild, and ./e2e.
  • Targeted Updates: Use go get -u and go mod tidy within each affected module so only the reported dependencies change.
  • Use Case: When a dependency audit flags out-of-date modules before a release, follow this Skill to update just those modules and confirm the check passes.

Quick Start

Run make ensure-important-modules-up-to-date and update each reported module with go get -u followed by go mod tidy until the check passes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I update stale Go modules flagged by make ensure-important-modules-up-to-date?▼

Run go get -u followed by go mod tidy in each affected module directory to update stale Go modules until the make ensure-important-modules-up-to-date check passes cleanly.

What does go mod tidy do when updating repository dependencies?▼

Running go mod tidy removes unused dependencies and adds missing ones, ensuring the go.mod file stays synchronized after go get -u updates important Go modules across repository directories.

Which module directories does the authgear-server repository check for stale dependencies?▼

The repository checks the root ./ directory, ./custombuild, and ./e2e modules when running make ensure-important-modules-up-to-date to detect stale important Go modules.

Can I use this workflow to update only specific Go modules instead of all dependencies?▼

Yes, the workflow targets only the stale important Go modules reported by make ensure-important-modules-up-to-date, applying go get -u and go mod tidy to just those affected modules.

Why does make ensure-important-modules-up-to-date report dependency drifts in my Go repository?▼

It reports dependency drifts when curated important Go modules in the repository fall behind their latest versions, requiring go get -u and go mod tidy to refresh each affected module.
