Go Grab Module

Go Grab CLI allows you to download Go modules using keywords instead of remembering URLs. After searching and picking your module, CLI will automatically execute go get <url> command.

Download destination

The destination of downloaded modules will follow the rules of go get command which will depend entirely on your installed Go version, configuration, and environment.

Legacy GOPATH behaviour: https://pkgo.dev/cmd/go#hdr-Legacy_GOPATH_go_get

Most common behaviour is:

1. update go.mod if exists
