Hi all, I'm trying to learn how to write a linter (because long weekend, etc)
I looked at Fatih's very fine blog post ( https://arslan.io/2019/06/13/using-go-analysis-to-write-a-custom-linter/) as well as the one that precedes it, although I was a LOT lost reading that one. Copying and pasting https://github.com/fatih/addlint/blob/master/addcheck/addcheck.go got me started, but the linter I have in mind needs to see strings, a trip to https://golang.org/src/go/token/token.go and https://golang.org/src/go/ast/ast.go showed me the possibilities. This (fortunately?) made me switch priorities slightly, as I now want to write something that is going to print each and every node (and this is where my problems began). I used Fatih's run and render functions but discovered that an error is being generated for the Doc comment, and I cannot see *why* (ast.CommentGroup is fine in parts of the code.. except for `func (p *printer) printNode(node interface{}) error` (https://golang.org/src/go/printer/printer.go <https://golang.org/src/go/printer/printer.go> line 1073), the format node section (lines 1125 - 1155) take me to the unsupported label, which generates an error My code (main.go, lencheck.go, and complete output can be found at https://play.golang.org/p/olvJ64EDdKZ, please excuse the length of the paste, I put *everything* in there) As you can see in my code there are 4 nodes that throw errors, and I don't understand if 1) that is intended or 2) I am doing (or not doing as the case may be) something to cause the issue.
