Contributing

Thanks for your interest in improving the PostHog Go SDK.

Development setup

Make sure you have Go installed (macOS: brew install go, Linux / Windows: https://go.dev/doc/install).

From the repository root:

# Install dependencies
make dependencies

# Run tests and build
make build

# Just run tests
make test

Testing local changes in another app

You can run your Go app against a local build of posthog-go by updating your app's go.mod, for example:

module example/posthog-go-app

go 1.22.5

require github.com/posthog/posthog-go v0.0.0-20240327112532-87b23fe11103

require github.com/google/uuid v1.3.0 // indirect

replace github.com/posthog/posthog-go => /path-to-your-local/posthog-go
