Vim-go: Syntastic + packages in gb path.

[groob]

I'm working on a gb project, and while :GoPath reports the correct folder(gb project) echo $GOPATH reports the default $GOPATH. This is causing syntastic to fail with "package not found in path" error whenever there is an import of another gb package(from the same project folder).

This issue is specific to syntastic. Using GoBuild does not cause any errors.

I also noticed that my gb path contains both pkg paths named darwin-amd64 and darwin_amd64.

My environment:
Shell - ZSH(GOPATH defined in zshrc)
editor - nvim

nvimrc:

filetype off                  " required

" set the runtime path to include Vundle and initialize
set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
call vundle#begin()
" alternatively, pass a path where Vundle should install plugins
"call vundle#begin('~/some/path/here')

" let Vundle manage Vundle, required

Hi @groob I'm not responsible of Syntastic. If you have a problem with vim-go please let me know, otherwise I don't have much to do or say here.

[vaijab]

@groob I have got exactly the same issue. Syntastic calls go build which is unaware of the gopath which vim-go sets.

It would be great if @fatih considered overwriting $GOPATH once vim-go successfully detected it.

As a workaround, I added the following to my vim configuration:

au FileType go let $GOPATH = go#path#Detect()

@vaijab I wrote a gb syntax checker, but the PR was rejected from syntactic, even though it works fine with gb and vim.

If you'd like to use it, you can download it and add it your folder under syntax checkers https://github.com/groob/syntastic/blob/gb_checker/syntax_checkers/go/gb.vim
