gofmt - Man Page

• Format a file and display the result to the console: gofmt path/to/source.go
• Format a file, overwriting the original file in-place: gofmt -w path/to/source.go
• Format a file, and then simplify the code, overwriting the original file: gofmt -s -w path/to/source.go
• Display diffs instead of rewriting files: gofmt -d path/to/source.go
• List files that would be changed by gofmt: gofmt -l path/to/directory
• Apply a rewrite rule to the source before reformatting (e.g. replace nil checks with isNil calls): gofmt -r 'x == nil -> isNil(x)' path/to/source.go
• Report all errors, including multiple ones per line: gofmt -e path/to/source.go
