Is the current parser solely depends on raw coverage file to get every possible coverage information ?

Can you say more about why you want to re-write coverage json in Golang? What is missing from it?

I initially was downloading python, pip and coverage in dockerfile of a go project which increased the image size, so I was hoping that if the parser can be written in go, i would not need to download these things. But recently i found coverage package in apt, which is increasing negligible size of image. This is not required now.
