The patterns are interpreted relative to the package directory // containing the source file. The path separator is a forward slash, even on // Windows systems. Patterns may not contain ‘.’ or ‘..’ or empty path elements, // nor may they begin or end with a slash. To match everything in the current // directory, use ‘*’ instead of ‘.’. To allow for naming files with spaces in // their names, patterns can be written as Go double-quoted or back-quoted // string literals. // // If a pattern names a directory, all files in the subtree rooted at that directory are // embedded (recursively), except that files with names beginning with ‘.’ or ‘_’ // are excluded. So the variable in the above example is almost equivalent to: // // // content is our static web server content. // //go:embed image template html/index.html // var content embed.FS // // The difference is that ‘image/*’ embeds ‘image/.tempfile’ while ‘image’ does not. // Neither embeds ‘image/dir/.tempfile’. // // If a pattern begins with the prefix ‘all:’, then the rule for walking directories is changed // to include those files beginning with ‘.’ or ‘_’. For example, ‘all:image’ embeds // both ‘image/.tempfile’ and ‘image/dir/.tempfile’. // // The //go:embed directive can be used with both exported and unexported variables, // depending on whether the package wants to make the data available to other packages. // It can only be used with variables at package scope, not with local variables. // // Patterns must not match files outside the package's module, such as ‘.git/*’ or symbolic links. // Patterns must not match files whose names include the special punctuation characters " * < > ? ` ' | / \ and :. // Matches for empty directories are ignored. After that, each pattern in a //go:embed line // must match at least one file or non-empty directory. // // If any patterns are invalid or have invalid matches, the build will fail. // // # Strings and Bytes // // The //go:embed line for a variable of type string or []byte can have only a single pattern, // and that pattern can match only a single file. The string or []byte is initialized with // the contents of that file. // // The //go:embed directive requires importing "embed", even when using a string or []byte. // In source files that don't refer to [embed.FS], use a blank import (import _ "embed"). // // # File Systems // // For embedding a single file, a variable of type string or []byte is often best. // The [FS] type enables embedding a tree of files, such as a directory of static // web server content, as in the example above. // // FS implements the [io/fs] package's [FS] interface, so it can be used with any package that // understands file systems, including [net/http], [text/template], and [html/template]. // // For example, given the content variable in the example above, we can write: // // http.Handle("/static/", http.StripPrefix("/static/", http.FileServer(http.FS(content)))) // // template.ParseFS(content, "*.tmpl") // // # Tools // // To support tools that analyze Go packages, the patterns found in //go:embed lines // are available in “go list” output.
