Print Golang Stacktrace

Some IDEs are good at letting you drill down into function definitions.

That's great when you know the starting point.

What about the times when you know exactly where your code broke and you want to find the starting point, as well as all the stops along the way?

Here's one way to do it using runtime/pprof

Output Stack Trace

Add Imports


import (
 "runtime/pprof"
 "os"
)


Generate Stack Trace

Put this on what ever line you want to generate the stack trace from:

pprof.Lookup("goroutine").WriteTo(os.Stdout, 1)


In this example, I put that WriteTo statement on line 222 in file /Users/lex/dev/go/project/src/github.com/company/repo/server/session.go.

Ouput

The output will look something like this:

goroutine profile: total 9

Notes

There will be several sections of traces.

You'll probably only be interested in the first one.
