A linter to enforce importing certain packages consistently.

What is this for?

Ideally, go imports should avoid aliasing. Sometimes though, especially with Kubernetes API code, it becomes unavoidable, because many packages are imported as e.g. "[package]/v1alpha1" and you end up with lots of collisions if you use "v1alpha1".

This linter lets you enforce that whenever (for example) "pkg/apis/serving/v1alpha1" is aliased, it is aliased as "servingv1alpha1".

Usage

importas \
  -alias knative.dev/serving/pkg/apis/autoscaling/v1alpha1:autoscalingv1alpha1 \
  -alias knative.dev/serving/pkg/apis/serving/v1:servingv1 \
  ./...
