I’ve implemented my first go linter, called cleanlinter — https://github.com/bullgare/cleanlinter.

It’s a simplistic linter to check golang project internal imports according to Clean Architecture pattern.

Installation

go install github.com/bullgare/cleanlinter/cmd/cleanlinter@latest

Usage

cleanlinter \
-cleanlinter_path_to_domain=github.com/bullgare/cleanlinter/test/testdata/src/project_correct/internal/domain \
-cleanlinter_path_to_usecase=github.com/bullgare/cleanlinter/test/testdata/src/project_correct/internal/usecase \
-cleanlinter_path_to_adapter=github.com/bullgare/cleanlinter/test/testdata/src/project_correct/internal/adapter \
-cleanlinter_path_to_infra=github.com/bullgare/cleanlinter/test/testdata/src/project_correct/internal/infra \
./...

To be honest, writing proper integration tests made much more time than just writing the linter.
