godoc: if some form of code search is available, use it to quickly come up with a list of files when used over very large file systems #1997

godoc can be very slow scanning very large file systems for .go files. Filter files help
to get it started quickly, but updating filter files may take a long time.

If there is some external code search tool available, perhaps it can be used to create
the list of .go files to include (or perhaps it can be used to update the filter file,
which just needs to be re-read).

Still relevant?

Comment 2:

There are alternative options (e.g. .zip files) and the possibility to hook up virtual
file systems internally (which permit arbitrary underlying implementations).
Closing this issue as not relevant anymore.

Status changed to Fixed.
