NAME

go-mod - module maintenance

SYNOPSIS

go mod command [arguments]

DESCRIPTION

Go mod provides access to operations on modules.

Note that support for modules is built into all the go commands, not just 'go mod'. For example, day-to-day adding, removing, upgrading, and downgrading of dependencies should be done using 'go get'. See 'go help modules' for an overview of module functionality.

COMMANDS

download modules to local cache
edit go.mod from tools or scripts
print module requirement graph
initialize new module in current directory
add missing and remove unused modules
make vendored copy of dependencies
verify dependencies have expected content
explain why packages or modules are needed

Use "go help mod <command>" for more information about a command.
