Introduction

aliasnimby checks a package for alias declarations, and if it finds one, returns a non zero exit status - just like everyone else does when aliases are discussed. It's not an overreaction at all.

Usage

go get -u github.com/bradleyfalzon/aliasnimby/...
aliasnimby [package]

Example

$ cat testdata/testdata.go
package testdata

type T1 struct{}

type T3 = T1
$ aliasnimby ./testdata/
/home/bradleyf/go/src/github.com/bradleyfalzon/aliasnimby/testdata/main.go:5:6: T3 is an alias
Argh fark, it's in my backyard!
