# Go Dependency Submission
This GitHub Action calculates dependencies for a Go build-target (a Go file with a
`main` function) and submits the list to the [Dependency submission API](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/supply-chain-security/understanding-your-software-supply-chain/using-the-dependency-submission-api). Dependencies then appear in your repository's dependency graph, and you'll receive Dependabot alerts and updates for vulnerable or out-of-date dependencies.
### Running locally
In order for NPM install to succeed (and not 401) you need to login to github's NPM feed:
```
npm login --scope=@github --registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com
```
Because we are checking in the Typescript output, you may see check failures if you don't generate the contents of `dist/` in a similar manner to our CI check. You can easily rectify this by regenerating in a codespace and using what we use in our workflow YAML:
```
npm ci --ignore-scripts
npm rebuild && npm run all
```
### Example
```yaml
name: Go Dependency Submission
on:
push:
branches:
- main
# The API requires write permission on the repository to submit dependencies
permissions:
contents: write
# Environment variables to configure Go and Go modules. Customize as necessary
env:
GOPROXY: '' # A Go Proxy server to be used
GOPRIVATE: '' # A list of modules are considered private and not requested from GOPROXY
jobs:

- name: 'Checkout Repository'
uses: actions/checkout@v3
- uses: actions/setup-go@v3
with:
go-version: ">=1.18.0"

# Required: Define the repo path to the go.mod file used by the
# build target
go-mod-path: go-example/go.mod
#
# Optional: Define the path of a build target (a file with a
# `main()` function) If not defined, this Action will collect all
# dependencies used by all build targets for the module, which may
# include Go dependencies used by tests and tooling.
