gosearch

gosearch: The awesome package explorer for Golang

gosearch turns the awesome-go into a CLI command that you can search for packages offline easily.

Why this?

I've back to coding Golang after a long time off. I want to install glide, logrus... and all the awesome packages, but I don't remember its full package import path, how to not Google?

Go ships with the good go get to install package, but not a way to search for packages.

Inspired by Python pip.
