How to get the directory of the currently running file?

Question

In nodejs I use __dirname . What is the equivalent of this in Golang?

I have googled and found out this article http://andrewbrookins.com/tech/golang-get-directory-o

Gustavo Niemeyer's answer is great. But in Windows, runtime proc is mostly in another dir, like this:

"C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Temp"

If you use relative file path, like "/config/api.yaml", this will use your project path where your code exists.
