Go and multiline strings

Using back ticks you can have multiline strings:

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {

    message := `This is a 
Multi-line Text String
Because it uses the raw-string back ticks 
instead of quotes.
`

    fmt.Printf("%s", message)
}

Instead of using either the double quote (“) or single quote symbols (‘), instead use back-ticks to define the start and end of the string. You can then wrap it across lines.

If you indent the string though, remember that the white space will count.

Please check the playground and do experiments with it.

According to the language specification you can use a raw string literal  where the string is delimited by backticks instead of double quotes    line 1 line 2 line 3

From String literals    raw string literal supports multiline  but escaped characters aren t interpreted  interpreted string literal interpret escaped characters  like   n      But  if your multi-line string has to include a backquote      then you will have to use an interpreted string literal    line one   line two            line three line four    You cannot directly put a backquote     in a raw string literal    xx    You have to use  as explained in  how to put a backquote in a backquoted string

Use raw string literals for multi-line strings   func main        multiline     line  by line and line after line      Raw string literals     Raw string literals are character sequences between back quotes  as in  foo   Within the quotes  any character may appear except back quote    A significant part is that is raw literal not just multi-line and to be multi-line is not the only purpose of it      The value of a raw string literal is the string composed of the uninterpreted  implicitly UTF-8-encoded  characters between the quotes  in particular  backslashes have no special meaning      So escapes will not be interpreted and new lines between ticks will be real new lines   func main        multiline     line  by line  n and line  n after line           n will be just printed          But new lines are there too      fmt Print multiline      Concatenation  Possibly you have long line which you want to break and you don t need new lines in it  In this case you could use string concatenation   func main        multiline     line                  by line                  and line                  after line       fmt Print multiline     No new lines here     Since     is interpreted string literal escapes will be interpreted   func main        multiline     line                  by line  n                 and line  n                 after line       fmt Print multiline     New lines as interpreted  n

You can write   quot line 1 quot     quot line 2 quot     quot line 3 quot   which is the same as   quot line 1line 2line 3 quot   Unlike using back ticks  it will preserve escape characters  Note that the  quot   quot  must be on the  leading  line - for instance  the following will generate an error   quot line 1 quot    quot line 2 quot
