From e94761abf99d69a93f4ab79a9af0fd4905d853fd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: aarzilli Date: Fri, 5 May 2023 22:14:12 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Restructure code to let linker perform deadcode elimination step Cobra, in its default configuration, will execute a template to generate help, usage and version outputs. Text/template execution calls MethodByName and MethodByName disables dead code elimination in the Go linker, therefore all programs that make use of cobra will be linked with dead code elimination disabled, even if they end up replacing the default usage, help and version formatters with a custom function and no actual text/template evaluations are ever made at runtime. Dead code elimination in the linker helps reduce disk space and memory utilization of programs. For example, for the simple example program used by TestDeadcodeElimination 40% of the final executable size is dead code. For a more realistic example, 12% of the size of Delve's executable is deadcode. This PR changes Cobra so that, in its default configuration, it does not automatically inhibit deadcode elimination by: 1. changing Cobra's default behavior to emit output for usage and help using simple Go functions instead of template execution 2. quarantining all calls to template execution into SetUsageTemplate, SetHelpTemplate and SetVersionTemplate so that the linker can statically determine if they are reachable --- cobra.go | 16 ++-- cobra_test.go | 58 ++++++++++++++ command.go | 218 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------ 3 files changed, 236 insertions(+), 56 deletions(-) diff --git a/cobra.go b/cobra.go index e0b0947b..d9cd2414 100644 --- a/cobra.go +++ b/cobra.go @@ -176,12 +176,16 @@ func rpad(s string, padding int) string { return fmt.Sprintf(formattedString, s) } -// tmpl executes the given template text on data, writing the result to w. -func tmpl(w io.Writer, text string, data interface{}) error { - t := template.New("top") - t.Funcs(templateFuncs) - template.Must(t.Parse(text)) - return t.Execute(w, data) +func tmpl(text string) *tmplFunc { + return &tmplFunc{ + tmpl: text, + fn: func(w io.Writer, data interface{}) error { + t := template.New("top") + t.Funcs(templateFuncs) + template.Must(t.Parse(text)) + return t.Execute(w, data) + }, + } } // ld compares two strings and returns the levenshtein distance between them. diff --git a/cobra_test.go b/cobra_test.go index 2bba461c..212d09ab 100644 --- a/cobra_test.go +++ b/cobra_test.go @@ -15,6 +15,10 @@ package cobra import ( + "os" + "os/exec" + "path/filepath" + "strings" "testing" "text/template" ) @@ -222,3 +226,57 @@ func TestRpad(t *testing.T) { }) } } + +func TestDeadcodeElimination(t *testing.T) { + // check that a simple program using cobra in its default configuration is + // linked with deadcode elimination enabled. + const ( + dirname = "test_deadcode" + progname = "test_deadcode_elimination" + ) + os.Mkdir(dirname, 0770) + filename := filepath.Join(dirname, progname+".go") + err := os.WriteFile(filename, []byte(`package main + +import ( + "fmt" + "os" + + "github.com/spf13/cobra" +) + +var rootCmd = &cobra.Command{ + Version: "1.0", + Use: "example_program", + Short: "example_program - test fixture to check that deadcode elimination is allowed", + Run: func(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) { + fmt.Println("hello world") + }, + Aliases: []string{"alias1", "alias2"}, + Example: "stringer --help", +} + +func main() { + if err := rootCmd.Execute(); err != nil { + fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Whoops.
