# 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. 

When using the [thin client](/the-client/client.md), the required tools may have to be installed and configured (go). This is not required when using the [dockerized client](/the-client/the-meterian-client-dockerized.md).
