Hi @anithapriyanatarajan, apologies for the delayed reply, and thank you for your interest in contributing—it's greatly appreciated!

Here’s some information that should be helpful:

  • The language extension guide provides clear steps on how to add a new language to the plugin.

  • We’ve already looked into whether the sonar-go library can be used similarly to sonar-java and sonar-python. With the latest update, it appears all requirements are met for this, so using sonar-go looks like the right path for adding Go support.

That’s all the information we have at the moment. I hope this helps, and thank you again for your willingness to contribute!
