how can vscode-go support group import

[wondar-chan]

i am using goland and vscode for develop. file watcher of goland support group import for 3 groups: go, third party, own. But when it comes to vscode, i set the format flag as: "-local $local(my own package name)", and use goimports as format tool but it won't work for me, when i format file, the import was sorted by default rule. i am curious. Besides, both able and disable of the language server have no difference

What you can do is try to debug why it's happening. Is goimports available from terminal? Can you run goimports command and see file changed?

btw, did you consider alternatives? I am using gofumpt instead of goimports and you can turn its support by providing an appropriate bool flag to gopls.gofumpt setting.

"go.useLanguageServer": true,
"go.formatTool": "gofumpt",
"go.formatFlags": [],
"gopls": {
	"formatting.gofumpt": true,
},

Thanks for the answer @butuzov

@wondar-chan FYI, go.formatFlags is not applicable when using the language server. When using the language server, utilize the "gopls" settings.

gofumpt style - https://github.com/golang/vscode-go/blob/master/docs/settings.md#formattinggofumpt
goimports -local style - https://github.com/golang/vscode-go/blob/master/docs/settings.md#formattinglocal

Thank you guys @hyangah @butuzov ! It's ok when I set "formatting.local". https://github.com/golang/vscode-go/blob/master/docs/settings.md#formattinglocal
