Robert Burke created BEAM-4115: ---------------------------------- Summary: Go SDK - Vanity Import Path Key: BEAM-4115 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-4115 Project: Beam Issue Type: Improvement Components: sdk-go Affects Versions: Not applicable Reporter: Robert Burke Assignee: Robert Burke
Proposal Doc: [https://s.apache.org/go-beam-vanity-import] Go has the ability to specify custom import paths for a prefix of packages. This has benefits of avoiding generic GitHub paths, and avoids breaking users in the event of infrastructure events such as moving off of GitHub, or even splitting the repo into per language components. Currently users need to import paths like: import "[github.com/apache/beam/sdks/go/pkg/beam/io/textio|http://github.com/apache/beam/sdks/go/pkg/beam/io/textio]" to get at SDK packages. If we implement this proposal, they would look like: import "[beam.apache.org/sdks/go/pkg/beam/io/textio|http://beam.apache.org/sdks/go/pkg/beam/io/textio]" which are a bit shorter, a bit more stable, and a bit nicer, with the benefits outlined above. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
