</example>
<para><xref linkend='ex-buildGoPackage'/> is an example expression using buildGoPackage,
the following arguments are of special significance to the function:
<calloutlist>
<callout arearefs='ex-buildGoPackage-1'>
<para>
<varname>goPackagePath</varname> specifies the package's canonical Go import path.
</para>
</callout>
<callout arearefs='ex-buildGoPackage-2'>
<para>
<varname>subPackages</varname> limits the builder from building child packages that
have not been listed. If <varname>subPackages</varname> is not specified, all child
packages will be built.
</para>
<para>
In this example only <literal>code.google.com/p/go.net/ipv4</literal> and
<literal>code.google.com/p/go.net/ipv6</literal> will be built.
</para>
</callout>
<callout arearefs='ex-buildGoPackage-3'>
<para>
<varname>goPackageAliases</varname> is a list of alternative import paths
that are valid for this library.
Packages that depend on this library will automatically rename
import paths that match any of the aliases to <literal>goPackagePath</literal>.
</para>
<para>
In this example imports will be renamed from
<literal>code.google.com/p/go.net</literal> to
<literal>golang.org/x/net</literal> in every package that depend on the
<literal>go.net</literal> library.
</para>
</callout>
<callout arearefs='ex-buildGoPackage-4'>
<para>
<varname>propagatedBuildInputs</varname> is where the dependencies of a Go library are
listed. Only libraries should list <varname>propagatedBuildInputs</varname>. If a standalone
program is being built instead, use <varname>buildInputs</varname>. If a library's tests require
additional dependencies that are not propagated, they should be listed in <varname>buildInputs</varname>.
</para>
</callout>
<callout arearefs='ex-buildGoPackage-5'>
<para>
<varname>buildFlags</varname> is a list of flags passed to the go build command.
</para>
</callout>
<callout arearefs='ex-buildGoPackage-6'>
<para>
If <varname>disabled</varname> is <literal>true</literal>,
nix will refuse to build this package.
</para>
<para>
In this example the package will not be built for go 1.3. The <literal>isGo13</literal>
is an utility function that returns <literal>true</literal> if go used to build the
package has version 1.3.x.
</para>
</callout>
</calloutlist>
</para>
<para>
Reusable Go libraries may be found in the <varname>goPackages</varname> set. You can test
build a Go package as follows:
<screen>
$ nix-build -A goPackages.net
</screen>
</para>
<para>
You may use Go packages installed into the active Nix profiles by adding
the following to your ~/.bashrc:
<screen>
for p in $NIX_PROFILES; do
GOPATH="$p/share/go:$GOPATH"
done
</screen>
