gimports

gimports is a simple tool to operate as something of an inverse of "go list". It reports by package which source files in a dir tree import that package.

For example, if you want to know which go source files under a directory tree import the errors package from the standard library, you could run:

$ gimports path/to/src/tree errors

You would get output something like this:

IMPORTERS OF "errors":
../openssl/examples/evpexpl/main.go
../openssl/ssl/httpsclient.go
../webster/webster.go

If you omit the package name, then gimports will report the imports for all files under the tree by package.

For more detailed reporting, you can call gimports -calls <dir> [<package>] - this will trigger the per-file reporting of all function calls by package (or for the specific package if named on the command line):
