The gopls daemon had different default logging behavior than the sidecar gopls: by default, the daemon was started with -logfile=auto. Additionally, because most logs are reflected back to the forwarder, the actual daemon logs have very little (if any) information. This means that if you simply start gopls with -remote=auto, you'll get a single logfile named /tmp/gopls-<pid>.log, which is mostly empty. This is not a delightful experience. Fix this via several improvements: + Log lifecycle events in the Daemon, to give the log a purpose. + Give the daemon a new default log location: /tmp/gopls-daemon-<pid>.log. + Don't pass -logfile=auto to the daemon by default.

gopls documentation
gopls (pronounced: "go please") is the official language server for the Go language.
Status
It is currently in alpha, so it is not stable.
You can see more information about the status of gopls and its supported features here.
Roadmap
The current goal is a fully stable build with the existing feature set, aiming for the first half of 2020, with release candidates earlier in the year.
This will be the first build that we recommend people use, and will be tagged as the 1.0 version. You can see the set of things being worked on in the 1.0 milestone, in general we are focused on stability, specifically, making sure we have a reliable service that produces an experience in module mode that is not a retrograde step from the old tools in GOPATH mode.
There is also considerable effort being put into testing in order to make sure that we both have a stable service and also that we do not regress after launch.
While we may continue to accept contributions for new features, they may be turned off behind a configuration flag if they are not yet stable. See the gopls unplanned milestone for deprioritized features.
This is just a milestone for gopls itself. We work with editor integrators to make sure they can use the latest builds of gopls, and will help them use the 1.0 version as soon as it is ready, but that does not imply anything about the stability, supported features or version of the plugins.
Using
In general you should not need to know anything about gopls, it should be integrated into your editor for you.
To install for your specific editor you can follow the following instructions
See the user guide for more information, including the how to install gopls by hand if you need.
