Is go get needed in order to use packages - layout

Is it needed to go get on packages? My code is here: https://github.com/retep-mathwizard/utils
My packages have dependencies on other items

go get will checkout the needed dependencies for them. For instance when I go get one of your packages via:
go get github.com/retep-mathwizard/utils/convert
go also gets the skilstak resource because your package is dependent on it.
The go get documentation says:
Get downloads and installs the packages named by the import paths, along with their dependencies.

Packages that are not updated when running meteor

I alter some code in a package at
C:\Users\usr\AppData\Local\.meteor\packages\accounts-ui-unstyled\1.3.0\web.browser\login_buttons.js
The thing is , after I alter the code and run “meteor” in the command line the changes are not implemented, I even deleted the whole package mentioned before and run the app and it was like … nothing happened, it’s like the application have some sort of a cache of the packages that he doesn’t have to go to that path to get them , instead it uses what it had from it before.
Can anyone please explain this to me ? What’s happening here ?
The correct way of "changing" a package is to git clone the package from git (or otherwise retrieve it's source) into either a project internal /packages folder or a project external folder (requires environment variable METOER_PACKAGE_DIRS).
If the package is, as in your case, a Meteor internal package, you can also copy only the package into your project and even add it to your versioning.
In this package you then apply your changes. It will be used in favor of the atmosphere package.
A good practice is to also increment the package version, so it is known for everyone that a custom version is in use.
Why you should not change packages inside the users \Users\...\.meteor installation packages folder?
This is the path to packages, that will be used as defaults for every new meteor project you create. Deep changes can create deep damage to your projects since changing a package will apply to all dependent projects.
Think also about project specific customization. The above described method will allow this, too.

Is there any way to search among scoped packages in npm?

Is there any way to search among scoped packages? I have access to a private repository so I would like to see what packages are available there and try to figure out the package names. I totally understand that, if somebody doesn't have access to a repository then they mustn't see the content of it. But what about those who have access and would like to use it effectively?
Documentation doesn't help, however it is a basic scenario for me.
Depends on what branch you will be checking out. Anyway you could simply check out the main branch and look into the package.json file. Under dependencies there will be listed all the npm packages that the project is using. One other way would be to manually search through the node-modules folder.

Importing Go packages locally rather than remotely

In a node.js project, I'm using Go for a critical part of it that node isn't adequate enough to handle. I want to split the Go code into a sockets package and a main package, with sockets containing required structs/interfaces for the main package to run. The problem I'm having is that from what I can gather from Go's documentation, I can only use external packages like sockets remotely from github/gopkg. I don't want to split the repository for the project into one containing the Go code and one containing node's. How can I make the sockets package available for main to import locally while making it possible to rebuild the binaries for the two packages if any updates to their source code are made?
Edit: importing the packages is no longer an issue, but rebuilding packages on update still remains
It happens the same to my team too and we end up using vendor it's pretty easy to manage all the external packages. So, whoever checkout your repo will have all the packages inside vendor.

Is there a way to check update for particular npm package using rss/atom or other similar way?

I found only this thread when an user ask similar question but without answer. ( https://github.com/npm/npm-registry-couchapp/issues/17 )
I know two sites that are repositories of NPM packages:
https://www.npmjs.com
http://libraries.io
And I can't find a way to obtain an rss for single package in a way like it is done for github or sourceforge:
https://github.com/<author_name>/<package_name>/releases.atom
http://sourceforge.net/projects/<project_name>/rss?limit=20
And yes, i know that I might check what is the github repository for given NPM and do it that way, but I specifically ask for a way to reach this info from some kind of NMP repository that tracks if a given package changed its git address (not necessarily these two I added here as example.)
It is hard to find these tricks by google because it thinks I'm searching for some kind of NPM package that deals with RSS/ATOM.
I've recently added a release atom feed to all packages on libraries.io, simply add /versions.atom to the end of any project page url, for example:
https://libraries.io/npm/node-sass/versions.atom
With npm modules it should never be more than 10 minutes delayed in showing the newest version.
You need to hit your requests against an NPM registry, i.e. https://registry.npmjs.org/-/rss.
For single packages, the URL should be https://registry.npmjs.org/-/rss/browserfiy, but the responses aren't being constructed correctly at the time of writing.
Alternatively, you could go for a JSON response, i.e. https://registry.npmjs.org/browserify. For a more programmatic way of accessing package details, you can use npm-registry-client.

Which Node.js project uses a given dependency?

I have a folder that contains all my cloned GitHub repositories. Now I would like to get a list of all the repositories that reference a given dependency.
I think of something such as:
$ whouses async
And then I'd like to get a list of all repositories, where async is either referenced as a dependency or a devDependency. Basically, all whouses would need to do is to enter each sub-folder of the current folder and check the package.json file.
Is there a tool available that does this, or am I better off writing one for myself?
Well, there's a way to browse the npm registry for all published modules that depend on a library: https://npmjs.org/browse/depended/async. That may help you a bit. For a local set of modules I don't know off the top of my head if anything exists already or not.
