custom arguments for 'build' and 'run'

Answered

Hi,

I'm trying to run a project that requires custom parameters when building (something like -buildmode=plugin some_other_file.go) and other set of parameters when running it (input files to process). Is this possible using the run/debug configuration? I've tried some combinations using the Go tools arguments and Program arguments but haven't had any luck yet. Any help would be appreciated it.

Thanks

Hi,

It is possible to pass custom arguments using run configurations.

Go tool arguments are arguments for Go tool as buildmode=plugin in your example. They're passing to binary compilation process: go build -arguments.
Program arguments are arguments for your program, e.g., input files to process. They're passing to binary execution process: ./binary arguments.txt. Please keep in mind that for Go plugins you should specify -o argument (Go tool one) for shared object library files (.so).

Please see Run/debug configurations section for more details: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/go/run-debug-configuration.html

We can consider your particular case and investigate what arguments you want to pass and how to do it properly.
