Go to definition and type info doesn't work with mux.Vars or anything else from gorilla/mux

[DmitriyMV]

I have no idea idea why - maybe because of the build tags? Other packages work fine.

What platform and version of Go? I'm using gorilla/mux (and other Gorilla packages) and completion works fine for me (OSX 10.11.6 / Go 1.7).

go version go1.7.1 linux/amd64
vs_code_1.6.0-1476123947_amd64
Auto-complete works (suddenly, for some reason), but try to hover over mux.Vars function for example. In normal case, this should show function info, but it doesn't. Go to definition doesn't work either.

I can repro this. We use godef for Goto definition and the hover features. While debugging, I found that on hover over mux.Router, godef returns an error godef: no declaration found for mux.Router

This is an issue with godef. Can you open an issue in the repo for godef ?

I have the same issue. go to definition not working with gorilla/mux. It works on my macbook but not on my ubuntu desktop.
OS Ubuntu 16.10
go version go1.7.1 linux/amd64
vscode 1.7.1 02611b40b24c9df2726ad8b33f5ef5f67ac30b44

In the latest update of the Go extension (0.6.50), we now support the use of gogetdoc for Goto/Peek Definition, Hover info and Signature Help features. Add "go.docsTool": "gogetdoc" to your setting to enable the use of gogetdoc, reload/restart VS Code and that should fix this issue.
