I'm wondering if there is any way to import the full contents of a package so that I don't have to prefix calls to things in the package with a package name?
For example, is there a way to replace this:
import "fmt"
func main() {
fmt.Println("Hello, world")
}
with this:
import "fmt"
func main() {
Println("Hello, world")
}
The Go Programming Language Specification
Import declarations
If an explicit period (.) appears instead of a name, all the package's
exported identifiers declared in that package's package block will be
declared in the importing source file's file block and must be
accessed without a qualifier.
For example,
package main
import . "fmt"
func main() {
Println("Hello, world")
}

Output:
Hello, world
