How to work with goimports?

Question

go

Hello!
I ran the command go get golang.org/x/tools/cmd/goimports.
When I run the goimports command, I get the error:
The 'goimports' program is not currently installed. You can install it by running:
sudo apt install golang-golang-x-tools.
When I run the go imports name.go command, I get the error:
go imports: unknown command
Run 'go help' for usage.
At the same time, gofmt works fine. What did you do wrong during installation? Or maybe I'm trying to use the goimports command wrong?

Check your PATH variable. There should be a path to bin inside GOPATH
