Static Code Analysis (linter) tool for Go language

Golint is newly released this week: https://github.com/golang/lint

Here are three related tools that you might want to look at. You will see how to parse and analyze Go source code.

There are a whole bunch of linters with varying types of output. Some include column offsets, some don't include any context, etc.

I've written a tool called gometalinter that installs, runs and normalises the output of all the ones I'm aware of:

• structcheck (github.com/opennota/check/cmd/structcheck)
• golint (github.com/golang/lint/golint)
• gotype (code.google.com/p/go.tools/cmd/gotype)
• errcheck (github.com/kisielk/errcheck)
• defercheck (github.com/opennota/check/cmd/defercheck)
• varcheck (github.com/opennota/check/cmd/varcheck)
• go vet

If there are any linters missing I'd love to add them.

There's also a SublimeLinter plugin for it.
