Unable to select the golang sdk in Intellij IDE

I am following the following blog to configure my golang environment (OS-X machine):

http://webapp.org.ua/dev/intellij-idea-and-go-plugin/

But, whenever I try to add go sdk (installed at /usr/local/go), it appear blank selection for the SDK.

Please suggest me, if I am missing something.

This page lists the SDKs which have already been configured in IntelliJ IDEA. You need to press the "Configure..." button and point the plugin to your SDK installation. Once you do this, it will become available in the SDK list for new project creation.

I would suggest to use the following for writing golang application:

1. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/golang-nuts/tuGS99f-kqk/Tl5KqNG0js0J

2. https://github.com/visualfc/liteide

If you want to use IDEA with golang, we've made a lot of progress in the past months. Please install the latest release from github releases and give it a try.

As the name suggests, there are a few issues here and there but it should work much better that the current release of the plugin.

You'll find it a class over the other offerings for writing go apps (disclaimer I'm one of the contributors to the plugin, I'm very biased)
