Golang debugging with delve

[matoous]

Hi! Did anyone manage to make debugging for golang work? If so, would you please share how?

Just started, but found this very helpful: https://overlandandseas.dev/posts/2023-7-11-debugging-go-delve-helix/

Might have to combine it with some command-line dlv action 🤷‍♂️

There is an edit command in delve CLI, but when I use DELVE_EDITOR=hx, it doesn't open the correct place in code, and I'm not sure if this is a delve issue or a helix issue.

Debugging in helix directly doesn't seem usable yet(again, specifically for go) and in vs code it's not possible to access the CLI commands directly, so I'm left without a satisfactory solution.

For anyone desperately still trying to get good debugger support for go, zed is fine. Only when used with helix mode, of course 😉 .
