Go package docs as PDF

[si guy]

Hi all, does anyone have a link to a PDF of the entire golang package documentation? Or perhaps a link to a PDF generator that will do it automatically?

-Thanks

Close enough! Just needed it for a long flight.

I'll probably end up writing a good godoc->PDF when I get back.

Thanks

One of the motivation for my iOS port is that I want to read Go documentation offline

on iPad.

Deleted, thanks for the reminder.
That PDF is very old. Many things changed between then and Go 1.

Any updates on this? I'd like a PDF generator to same.

You could use `godoc -html` with existing tools that convert HTML to PDF. e.g., with pandoc:

godoc -html encoding | pandoc -f html -t latex --latex-engine=xelatex - -o encoding.pdf

Or with wkhtmltopdf:

godoc -html encoding | wkhtmltopdf - encoding.pdf

The output isn't perfect and perhaps there are other tools that will do a better job.
