Build your project so that it creates a binary file
go build
We can start the debugger with the following command
$ dlv debug
Type 'help' for list of commands.
Consider the following main.go file
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
fmt.Println("vim-go")
hello := "hello sir how are you"
fmt.Println(hello)
hello2 := "ramdom text"
fmt.Println(hello2)
}
We run dlv debug to initialize the debug session, then we can user the break command to set a breakpoint to a line number of a file
$ (dlv) break main.go:7
Breakpoint 2 set at 0xdf2cd5 for main.main() C:/Users/elias/code/go/delve-example-1/main.go:7
You can see all the breakpoints with breakpoints command
(dlv) breakpoints
Breakpoint 1 (suspended) at main.main
Breakpoint 2 (suspended) at main.go:7
You can delete breakpoints using the clear command, or also use clearall
clear 1
