Hi,
I've made an attempt at making a build system for Go. It seems to
work, but it's not pretty. My Guix/Guile skills are bad, so keep your
expectations to a minimum. Consider it something where there was
nothing.
I started with a copy of the GNU build system, removed code I felt
wasn't necessary, then adapted to Go's needs. Note, comments and those
first text string after a (define) have not been updated. Unnecessary
#:use-modules have not been removed. In short, it's bad and there's a
lot to do make it ok-ish. That's where you come in :)
I'll add Syncthing, a sizeable Go project, and its dependencies in a
later e-mail. These recipes uses this Go build system, and my primary
goal has been to make these nice, while functional. Now we can
hopefully work on the build system with a minimum of modifications to
the recipes.
Happy hacking!
Petter

I haven't contributed or carefully studied the other build systems yet,
so my feedback will be rather superficial. I hope somebody with some
more knowledge will jump in :)

It looks like `go install` knows "where" to install the files, but
installs them in the wrong place, and then we copy them into place in
the install phase. I think it's inefficient to move the files twice.
Can the build phase use something like `go build`, followed by the
install phase using `go install` to move the files directly to the
package's output directory in /gnu/store?

Another question: does this build system try to run tests? In my own
Syncthing packaging I used `go run build.go test`, but I noticed that
your Syncthing package built with this build system doesn't seem to run
the tests.

The differences between `go install` and `go build` here is that `go
install` compiles and moves the result to $GOPATH/bin (unless GOBIN is
set to somewhere else).
`go build` compiles (always from source I believe) and leaves the
resulting binary in current directory.
`go install` compiles and also creates package objects in pkg/ which I
believe is a compiled object that is compiled once and then reused,
unless source is changed. Not sure if timestamps are used to determine
whether source has changed, and how that works on Guix.
Optimizations could be made for sure, I will look at this at
convenience.

No. It only builds/installs at the moment. Tests, docs,
cross-compilation and other things (if there are more things), are not
dealt with at this point.
Note that Syncthing uses their own build program (build.go). This is
atypical. There will be a test phase, and Syncthing will override this
with their way of running tests.
Regarding cross-compilation. Go supports: 386, amd64, amd64p32, arm,
arm64, mips64, mips64le, ppc64, ppc64le and s390x as far as I can
tell. With mips32 being added in February. I have yet to discover how
the build system should deal with cross-compilations. The Go part is
easy, just set the GOARCH environment variable before compiling.
`GOARCH=mips64 go install ...`
