Introduction
It’s no secret that I am a fan of vendoring when it’s reasonable and practical to use it for your application projects. I believe vendoring gives your application projects the most durability since the project owns every line of source code it needs to build the applications. If you want a reproducible build without needing to rely on external services (like module mirrors) and being connected to the network, vendoring is the solution.
These are other benefits of vendoring:
- If dependencies are removed from the VCS or somehow proxy servers lose modules, you are covered.
- Upgrading dependencies can be seen by running diffs and you maintain a history.
- You will have the ability to trace and debug your dependencies and test changes if necessary.
- Once you run a
go mod tidy
andgo mod vendor
your changes will be replaced.
- Once you run a
In this post, I will provide a history of Go’s support for vendoring and the changes in default behavior that have existed over time. I will also share how Go’s tooling is capable of maintaining backwards compatibility between versions. Finally, I will share how you may need to (over time) manually upgrade the version listed in the go.mod
file to change the default behavior of future Go releases.
Running Different Versions Of Go
To show you the differences in default behavior between Go 1.13 and Go 1.14, I need to be able to run both versions of the tooling on my machine at the same time. I’ve already installed Go 1.14.2 on my machine at the time I published this post and I access that version using the traditional go
front end. However for this post, I also need to run a Go 1.13 environment. So how can I do that without disrupting my current development environment?
Luckily, the Go team publishes version downloads that give you a specific binary for any version of Go you want to use, including Go Tip .
Figure 1
Figure 1 shows a screenshot of the Go 1.13.10 page from the download server. It shows the instructions for building a binary that can be used to build and test your Go code using Go 1.13.10.
Listing 1
$ cd $HOME $ go get golang.org/dl/go1.13.10 OUTPUT go: downloading golang.org/dl v0.0.0-20200408221700-d6f4cf58dce2 go: found golang.org/dl/go1.13.10 in golang.org/dl v0.0.0-20200408221700-d6f4cf58dce2 $ go1.13.10 download OUTPUT Downloaded 0.0% ( 14448 / 121613848 bytes) ...

You may now run 'go1.13.10' $ go1.13.10 version OUTPUT go version go1.13.10 darwin/amd64 $ go version OUTPUT go version go1.14.2 darwin/amd64
Listing 1 shows how after running the go get
command for version 1.13.10 of Go and performing the download
call, I can now use Go 1.13.10 on my machine without any disruption to my Go 1.14.2 installation.
If you want to remove any version of Go from your machine, you can find the specific binaries in your $GOPATH/bin
folder and all the supporting files will be found in $HOME/sdk
.

Quick Vendoring Tutorial
The Go tooling did a great job minimizing the workflow impacts to manage and vendor an application project’s dependencies. It requires two commands: tidy
and vendor
.
Listing 3
$ go mod tidy
Listing 3 shows the tidy
command that helps to keep the dependencies listed in your module files accurate. Some editors (like VS Code and GoLand) provide support to update the module files during development but that doesn’t mean the modules files will be clean and accurate once you have everything working. I recommend running the tidy
command before you commit and push any code back to your VCS.
If you want to vendor those dependencies as well, then run the vendor
command after tidy
.
Listing 4
$ go mod vendor
Listing 4 shows the vendor
command. This command creates a vendor folder inside your project that contains the source code for all the dependencies (direct and indirect) that the project requires to build and test the code. This command should be run after running tidy
to keep your vendor folder in sync with your module files. Make sure to commit and push the vendor folder to your VCS.
GOPATH or Module Mode
In Go 1.11, a new mode was added to the Go tooling called Module-Mode. When the Go tooling is operating in Module-Mode, the module system is used to find and build code. When the Go tooling is operating in GOPATH-Mode, the traditional GOPATH system continues to be used to find and build code. One of the bigger struggles I have had with the Go tooling is knowing what mode will be used by default between the different versions. Then knowing what configuration changes and flags I need to keep my builds consistent.
To understand the history and the semantic changes that have occurred over the past 4 versions of Go, it’s good to have a refresher on these modes.
Go 1.11
A new environment variable was introduced called GO111MODULE
whose default was auto
. This variable would determine if the Go tooling would use Module-Mode or GOPATH-Mode depending on where the code was located (inside or outside of GOPATH). To force one mode or the other, you would set this variable to on
or off
. When it came to vendor folders, Module-Mode would ignore a vendor folder by default and build dependencies against the module cache.
Go 1.12
The default setting for GO111MODULE
is still auto
and the Go tooling continues to determine Module-Mode or GOPATH-Mode depending on where the code is located (inside or outside of GOPATH). When it comes to vendor folders, Module-Mode would still ignore a vendor folder by default and build dependencies against the module cache.
Go 1.13
The default setting for GO111MODULE
is now on
if a go.mod
file is located in the project (regardless if the project is located inside or outside of GOPATH). Module-Mode would still ignore a vendor folder by default and build dependencies against the module cache.
Go 1.14
The default setting for GO111MODULE
is still on
if a go.mod
file is located in the project (regardless if the project is located inside or outside of GOPATH). However, if a vendor folder exists, it will be used by default to build dependencies instead of the module cache. In addition, the go
command verifies that the project’s vendor/modules.txt
file is consistent with its go.mod
file.
Backwards Compatibility Between Versions
The change in Go 1.14 to use the vendor folder by default over the module cache is the behavior I wanted for my projects. Initially I thought I could just use Go 1.14 to build against my existing projects and it would be enough, but I was wrong. After my first build with Go 1.14 and not seeing the vendor folder being respected, I learned that the Go tooling reads the go.mod
file for version information and maintains backwards compatibility with that version listed. I had no idea, but it is clearly expressed in the release notes for Go 1.14.
https://golang.org/doc/go1.14#go-command
When the main module contains a top-level vendor directory and its go.mod
file specifies Go 1.14 or higher, the go command now defaults to -mod=vendor
for operations that accept that flag.
In order to use the new default behavior for vendoring, I was going to need to upgrade the version information in the go.mod
file from Go 1.13 to Go 1.14. This is something I quickly did.
Small Demo
To show you the behavior of Go 1.13 and Go 1.14, and how the tooling maintains backwards compatibility, I am going to use the service project. I will show you how changing the version listed in go.mod
will change the default behavior of the Go tooling.
To start, I will clone the service project outside of my GOPATH.
Listing 5
$ cd $HOME/code $ git clone https://github.com/ardanlabs/service $ cd service $ code .
Listing 5 shows the commands to clone the project and open the project in VS Code.
Listing 6
$ ls -l vendor/ OUTPUT total 8 drwxr-xr-x 3 bill staff 96 Mar 26 16:01 contrib.go.opencensus.io drwxr-xr-x 14 bill staff 448 Mar 26 16:01 github.com drwxr-xr-x 20 bill staff 640 Mar 26 16:01 go.opencensus.io drwxr-xr-x 3 bill staff 96 Mar 26 16:01 golang.org drwxr-xr-x 3 bill staff 96 Mar 26 16:01 gopkg.in -rw-r--r-- 1 bill staff 2860 Mar 26 16:01 modules.txt
Listing 6 shows the listing of the vendor folder for the service project. You can see directories for some of the popular VCS sites that exist today as well as several vanity domains. All the code the project depends on to build and test are located inside the vendor folder.
Next, I will manually change the go.mod
file back to version 1.13. This will allow me to show you the behavior I experienced when I used Go 1.14 for the first time against this project.
Listing 7
module github.com/ardanlabs/service go 1.13 // I just changed this from go 1.14 to go 1.13
Listing 7 shows the change I am making to the go.mod
file (switching out go 1.14
for go 1.13
).
Go 1.13
On this first build, I will use Go 1.13.10 to build the sales-api
application. Remember, the go.mod
file is listing Go 1.13 as the compatible version for this project.
Listing 8
$ cd service/cmd/sales-api $ go1.13.10 clean -modcache $ go1.13.10 build OUTPUT go: downloading contrib.go.opencensus.io/exporter/zipkin v0.1.1 . . . go: finding github.com/leodido/go-urn v1.2.0
Listing 8 shows how I navigated to the application folder, cleaned out my local module cache and then performed a build using Go 1.13.10. Notice how the Go tooling downloaded all the dependencies back into my module cache in order to build the binary. The vendor folder was ignored.
To get Go 1.13 to respect the vendor folder, I need to use the -mod=vendor
flag when building and testing.
Listing 9
$ go1.13.10 clean -modcache $ go1.13.10 build -mod=vendor OUTPUT
Listing 9 shows how I am now using the -mod=vendor
flag on the build call. This time the module cache is not re-populated with the missing modules and the code in the vendor folder is respected.
Go 1.14
This time I will run the build command using Go 1.14.2 without the use of the -mod=vendor
flag.
Listing 10
$ go clean -modcache $ go build OUTPUT go: downloading github.com/openzipkin/zipkin-go v0.2.2 . . . go: downloading github.com/golang/groupcache v0.0.0-20200121045136-8c9f03a8e57e
Listing 10 shows what happens when I use Go 1.14 to build the project. The vendor folder is not being respected because the tooling is operating with Go 1.13 semantics. This is because the go.mod
file is listing Go 1.13 as the compatible version for the project. When I saw this for the first time I was shocked. This is what started my investigation.
If I switch the go.mod
file to version 1.14, the default mode of the Go 1.14 tooling will switch to respect the vendor folder by default.
Listing 11
module github.com/ardanlabs/service go 1.14 // I just changed this from go 1.13 to go 1.14
Listing 11 shows the change to the go.mod
file back to 1.14. I will clear the module cache again and run the build command again using Go 1.14.
Listing 12
$ go clean -modcache $ go build OUTPUT
Listing 12 shows that the module cache is not re-populated this time on the call to go build
using Go 1.14. Which means the vendor folder is being respected, without the need of the -mod=vendor
flag. The default behavior has changed because the module file is listing Go 1.14.
Future Changes For Vendoring and Modules
Thanks to John Reese , here is a link to a discussion about the tooling maintaining backwards compatibility between different versions of Go based on what is listed in the go.mod
file. John was instrumental in making sure the post was accurate and flowed correctly.
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/30791
There is more support coming for vendoring that will follow in future releases. One such feature being discussed is about validating the code in the vendor folder to find situations where the code has been changed.
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/27348
I have to thank Chris Hines for reminding me about the default behaviors in the previous versions of Go and how that has been promoted with each new release. Chris also provided some interesting links that share some history and other cool things coming to the Go tooling for modules. Chris was instrumental in making sure the post was accurate and flowed correctly.
Conclusion
This post is a result of me being surprised that the version listed in go.mod
was affecting the default behavior of the Go tooling. In order to gain access to the new default vendoring behavior in Go 1.14 that I wanted, I had to manually upgrade the version listed in go.mod
from 1.13 to 1.14.
I haven’t formed any concrete opinions about the Go tooling using the version information in go.mod
to maintain backwards compatibility between versions. The Go tooling has never been tied to the Go compatibility promise and so this was unexpected to me. Maybe this is the start of something great and moving forward the Go tooling can grow without the Go community worrying if their builds, tests and workflows will break when a new version of the Go tooling is released.
If you have any opinions, I’d love to hear them on Twitter.
