About:
goimports is a command-line tool that automatically updates Go import lines by adding missing imports and deleting unused ones. It also formats the code according to Go standards, ensuring consistent and clean source files. This tool is essential for maintaining correct dependencies without manual intervention.
Key Features:
  • Automatically adds missing imports
  • Removes unused imports
  • Formats code to Go standards
  • Integrates with editors and CI pipelines
Use Cases:
  • Cleaning up Go source files after refactoring
  • Ensuring consistent import management in team projects

Alternatives:
  • gofmt – gofmt formats code but does not manage imports automatically
  • gofumpt – stricter formatter that includes additional rules but lacks goimports' import management
