Extract constant
Last modified: 12 December 2022The Extract Constant refactoring makes your source code easier to read and maintain. It also helps you avoid using hardcoded constants without any explanations about their values or purpose.
Extract a constant
In the editor, select an expression or declaration of a variable you want to replace with a constant.
Press Ctrl+Alt+C to introduce a constant or select Refactor | Extract | Constant.
note
By default, GoLand uses the in-place refactoring. To use the dialog for the refactoring, open the Settings/Preferences dialog (Ctrl+Alt+S), go to Editor | Code Editing, and select the In modal dialogs refactoring option in the Refactorings area.
Select an expression you want to extract as constant and press Enter. Select the number of occurrences you want to replace and a name you want to use.
