Golang auto completion nsf package

Question

I have installed sublime and go.

Tried the autocompletion feature offered by https://github.com/nsf/gocode.

It works perfectly for standard packages.

But not working for external packages like the ones fetched from github.

Any help on this appreciated. Thanks.

Answer 1

It will only work if you build and install those external packages.

if you just go get their sources, the completion won't work, even said sources are in the GOPATH/src/....

Those packages need to be at least compiled (GOPATH/pkg).

As mentioned in "How does Go update third-party packages?", a go get -u all can help.
