- Evaluates any expressions, statements and function declarations
- No "evaluated but not used" errors

Some functionalities are provided as commands in the REPL:

:doc <expr or pkg> Show document
:help List commands

The gore command requires Go tool-chains on runtime, so standalone binary is not distributed.
go install github.com/x-motemen/gore/cmd/gore@latestMake sure $GOPATH/bin is in your $PATH.
Also recommended:
go install github.com/mdempsky/gocode@latest # for code completionOr you can use Docker:
git clone https://github.com/x-motemen/gore.git
cd gore
docker build -t gore .
docker run -it --rm gore- gore runs code using
go runfor each input. All the inputted lines are evaluated again and again so you can't bind the evaluated time bytime.Now(), for example. If you don't like this behavior, you may want to use yaegi. - gore support Go modules. You can load local modules when you start gore at
the project directory. You don't need to
go getto check the usage of a remote repository,:import github.com/...will automatically download that module. Also, you don't need togo getthe pretty print module anymore. If you want to load a local code from$GOPATH, you need to create the modules file (go mod init ...) and then start gore at the project directory.
