The API requires that drivers use the gob encoding, an efficient, robust, self-describing binary protocol. A fact type may implement the GobEncoder/GobDecoder interfaces if the default encoding is unsuitable. Facts should be stateless. +Because serialized facts may appear within build outputs, the gob encoding +of a fact must be deterministic, to avoid spurious cache misses in +build systems that use content-addressable caches. The Pass type has functions to import and export facts, associated either with an object or with a package: |
