# Golang

The Go analyser is triggered when a “go.mod” is found in the root of the project. When operating on a Go project the analyser will use the “go” command in order to load the dependencies.&#x20;

When using the [thin client](https://docs.meterian.io/the-client/client), the required tools may have to be installed and configured (go). This is not required when using the [dockerized client](https://docs.meterian.io/the-client/the-meterian-client-dockerized).&#x20;
