GO in IntelliJ IDEA. Multiple File and Error Undefined: Data

Question

I want use IntelliJ IDE Community Edition to write code in GO (GoLang). I instaled right plugin, and instaled all need tools to build application. My application consists with two below file. Each is in direcytory ../EventServer.

• Main.go
• Data.go

If I want to run project from IntelliJ using function Run (Ctlr+Shift+F10) and I get below error

/usr/lib/go/bin/go build -o "/tmp/Build Main.go and run0go" -gcflags "-N -l" /my/home/blah/EventServer/Main.go
# command-line-arguments
./Main.go:11: undefined: Data

I can without any problem compiled code from terminal come in to direcytory with project and execution command

:~/Pulpit/EventServer$ go build
./EventServer 
Hello
dane w strukturze someone

tree direcytory and files looks like

EventServer$ tree -a
.
├── Data.go
├── EventServer
├── EventServer.iml
├── .idea
│   ├── compiler.xml
│   ├── copyright
│   │   └── profiles_settings.xml
│   ├── libraries
│   │   └── GOPATH__EventServer_.xml
│   ├── misc.xml
│   ├── modules.xml
│   ├── .name
│   ├── vcs.xml
│   └── workspace.xml
└── Main.go

I suppose that command to run is bad, because compiler trying build program with only one file Main.go but not with all files. Right command should be

$ go run *.go 

But I do not know where Can I set this.

I also set GOPATH to:

export GOPATH=$HOME/Pulpit/EventServer

This also hasn't help

CODE

Main.go

package main

import (
    "fmt"

)

func main() {

    fmt.Println("Hello")
    abcd := Data{"someone" , "1234567"}
    fmt.Printf("dane w strukturze %s ", abcd.Name)

}

And Data.go

package main


type Data struct {
Name string
Phone string

}

Let say you are having a project with src/ sub directory and two .go files inside: hello.go and typetest.go and both defines the same package "main". One of them (hello.go) also implements func main().

To make it compile as whole you need to make sure two things are configured properly: GOPATH and Run/Debug configuration.

Open the Project Libraries/GOPATH settings:

For Gogland

File -> Settings -> Go

For Intellij IDEA

File -> Settings -> Languages & Frameworks -> Go -> Go Libraries

Makes sure the GOPATH for the project looks something like that:

GOPATH settings

Next, open Run -> Edit Configurations and make sure your configuration looks similar to this:
