lintinit

External resources access from init() function may have negative side-effects like cross components initialization dependency and other initialization order issues.

For example, there is a components tree like this:

- pkg1
- pkg2
  + pkg3

lintinit will report pkg1 usages (global variables or function calls) from pk2 init() function but allow to use everything from pkg3.

Installing

go get -u github.com/astavonin/lintinit
