[SOLVED] Error when using Go modules in existing project

I started a new project with go modules, the projects already existed. After running go mod int and go mod tidy I’m getting:

go mod tidy
go: downloading [github.com/ghodss/yaml](http://github.com/ghodss/yaml) v1.0.0
go: extracting [github.com/ghodss/yaml](http://github.com/ghodss/yaml) v1.0.0
[go.etcd.io/etcd/discoveryserver/handlers](http://go.etcd.io/etcd/discoveryserver/handlers) imports
[go.etcd.io/etcd/etcdserver/api/v2store](http://go.etcd.io/etcd/etcdserver/api/v2store): module [go.etcd.io/etcd@latest](http://go.etcd.io/etcd@latest) (v3.3.17+incompatible) found, but does not contain package [go.etcd.io/etcd/etcdserver/api/v2store](http://go.etcd.io/etcd/etcdserver/api/v2store)

I have no idea how to solve the module go.etcd.io/etcd@latest (v3.3.17+incompatible) found, but does not contain package go.etcd.io/etcd/etcdserver/api/v2store issue. I would appreciate any help.

would you mind post the contents of the go.mod? Will need to try it out locally here.

This is the go.mod content:

module go.etcd.io/etcd/discoveryserver

go 1.13

require (
	github.com/coreos/etcd v3.3.17+incompatible // indirect
	github.com/google/uuid v1.1.1 // indirect
	github.com/gorilla/handlers v1.4.2
	github.com/gorilla/mux v1.7.3
	github.com/prometheus/client_golang v1.2.1
	github.com/spf13/pflag v1.0.5
	github.com/spf13/viper v1.4.0
	go.etcd.io/etcd v3.3.17+incompatible
	google.golang.org/grpc v1.24.0
	sigs.k8s.io/yaml v1.1.0 // indirect

Few probing questions, in sequence:

  1. What’s your GO111MODULE? (cmd: go env GO111MODULE)

  2. Go outside of any go module packages and try export GO111MODULE=on && go get -u github.com/etcd-io/etcd@v3.3.17. Does it work locally?

I can’t reproduce the error here so would need your help on your side. So far I’m able to go get the package without problem.

Looks like v2store is not there. I navigate the module folder and it is not. I’m looking at another versions to see if they have the go.etcd.io/etcd/etcdserver/api/v2store package.
$ echo $GO111MODULE -> empty

You’re on auto mode. I just cross-checked their release versions:

v3.3.17 does not have the v2store.

However, v.3.4.2 does have the v2store. Is it okay to move up to v3.4.2?

I’ll try the v3.4.2 version, however, the imported version in the code is not from GH:
import ( .... "go.etcd.io/etcd/etcdserver/api/v2store" .... )

Don’t worry about it. You can try with the mirror domain go.etcd.io first, then github.com later if it is not working.

By right, it should be working fine.

This is what I get if I try v.3.4.2:

verifying go.etcd.io/etcd@v3.4.2+incompatible/go.mod: go.etcd.io/etcd@v3.4.2+incompatible/go.mod: reading https://sum.golang.org/lookup/go.etcd.io/etcd@v3.4.2+incompatible: 410 Gone

This was done by modifying the go.mod directly.
With go get:

go get -u go.etcd.io/etcd@v3.4.2
go: finding go.etcd.io/etcd v3.4.2
go get go.etcd.io/etcd@v3.4.2: go.etcd.io/etcd@v3.4.2: invalid version: module contains a go.mod file, so major version must be compatible: should be v0 or v1, not v3

Oh yes. As expected in go1.13.X. It’s getting strict with the v1, v2, … directory approach. Currently, the project does not practice that directory approach.

Can you try replacing v3.4.2 with its commid ID: bbe86b066c0c714fa2a17ee93a37882553cf2394? They only maintain single master branch (master is always on the edge) so it’s not safe to use @master in this case.

I did it with the commit hash and now the go.mod file has:

go.etcd.io/etcd v0.5.0-alpha.5.0.20191009222652-bbe86b066c0c

It is suppose to be v3.4.2. Correct? Also, could you point me out to where I can read about this:
As expected in go1.13.X. It’s getting strict with the v1, v2, … directory approach.

It is expected to have the pseudo-version. You can’t use the tag-version unless the project complies to the version directory approach for tag with major version higher than or equal to 2.

Sure.

Actual Doc:

  1. Modules · golang/go Wiki · GitHub
  2. Go 1.13 Release Notes - The Go Programming Language (after understanding of go module’s internal organs)

Q&A:

  1. git - How to point Go module dependency in go.mod to a latest commit in a repo? - Stack Overflow
  2. go modules - What does 'incompatible' in go.mod mean, will it cause harm? - Stack Overflow (atline explained quite well)

Similar cases:

  1. go.mod missing /v11 at the end of the module directive · Issue #1355 · kataras/iris · GitHub
  2. [POLL] Iris + Go Modules (Import path suffix or not) · Issue #1370 · kataras/iris · GitHub

Some Example related to the vX directory:

Side-note: if the problem is solved, remember to mark it as “solved” to let others work other problem. =)

I’m able to get the server running. I think next thing to do is to fix the compatibility between go modules and the releases. I’ll marked this as resolved and Thank you so much @hollowaykeanho.
