How to get the current working directory in golang

working_directory.go

package main
// More info on Getwd()
// https://golang.org/src/os/getwd.go
// 
import(
  "os" 
  "fmt"
  "log"
)

func main() {
	dir, err := os.Getwd()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	fmt.Println(dir)
}

If you would like to find the current directory name - then you can extend it further.

// More info on Getwd()
// https://golang.org/src/os/getwd.go
// 
import(
  "os" 
  "fmt"
  "log"
)

func main() {
  dir, err := os.Getwd()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
  fmt.Println(dir)
  var ss [] string
  if runtime.GOOS == "windows" {
		ss = strings.Split(dir, "\\")
	} else {
		ss = strings.Split(dir, "/")
	}

	currentDirName:= ss[len(ss)-1]

	fmt.Println("Current Directory Name: ", currentDirName)
}

path/filepath does this for you, hopefully no one has this code in their programs

https://golang.org/pkg/path/filepath/

@jasontconnell - you are right.

Could you please tell me how to get directory of specified windows process ?not only current process but also some else.For example cmd.exe

牛逼

THANK YOU !
I've wasted so much time trying to figure out how to find directory of the project (to locate config file correctly), this should be the first answer on stack overflow or something ... thanks again for sharing
