如何在go中获取当前包的名称？

Question

Is there a way to get on runtime the name of current package?

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    pkgName := {some magic here:)}
    fmt.Println(pkgName)
}

... and the result should be "main"

Right now I'm using constant like:

package main

import "fmt"
const (
    pkgName = "main"
)

func main() {
    fmt.Println(pkgName)
}

but I'm curious if you can avoid this

There is no runtime or reflect method or function that provides the functionality that you are looking for.

The closest thing I could find is:

package main

import (
    "azul3d.org/lmath.v1"
    "fmt"
    "reflect"
)

type Empty struct{}

func main() {
    fmt.Println(reflect.TypeOf(Empty{}).PkgPath())
    fmt.Println(reflect.TypeOf(lmath.Vec3{0, 0, 0}).PkgPath())
}

This would output:

main
azul3d.org/lmath.v1

You could also read the first line of the file and remove the "package" substring. (Not sure if it's the best idea)

package main

import (
    "bufio"
    "bytes"
    "fmt"
    "os"
)

func main() {
    file, err := os.Open("so.go")
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    r := bufio.NewReader(file)
    line, _, err := r.ReadLine()
    if err != nil {
        panic(err)
    }
    packageName := bytes.TrimPrefix(line, []byte("package "))
    fmt.Println(string(packageName))
}
