# Go

To enable go package generation, add the `go` key to the jsii targets configuration:

- `packageName` (optional) - The name of the Go package name. If not specified,
  package name will be derived from the JavaScript module name by removing
  non-alphanumeric characters (e.g. `@aws-cdk/aws-s3` will be `awscdkawss3`). If
  this is set on a submodule config file (`.jsiirc.json`), it refers to the
  submodule package name.
- `moduleName` (required) - The name of the **target repository** in which this
  module will be published (e.g. `github.com/foo/bar`). The module itself will
  *always* be published under a subdirectory named according to the Go package
  name of the module (e.g. `github.com/foo/bar/awscdk`).
- `versionSuffix` (optional) - Can be provided that will be appended at the end
  of the module version.

This will add generated go package code to your specified `outDir` under
`go/PACKAGE_NAME` (e.g. `dist/go/awscdklib`).

```js
{
  "jsii": {
    "targets": {
      "go": {
        "moduleName": "github.com/foo/bar",  // REQUIRED
        "packageName": "hello",              // OPTIONAL
        "versionSuffix": "-devprefix"        // OPTIONAL
      },
      // ...
    },
    // ...
  },
  // ...
}
