Import issue

[mikegfink]

Hi Sergey,
Did you only grab the govec package and not broker as well?

If you have both, as a stopgap measure you can change the import to refer
directly to the local broker path at probably ./../broker instead of the
absolute github path.

I can't import GoVector into the project and keep getting error where it
is looking for

/usr/lib/go/src/pkg/github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector/broker (from $GOROOT)
/home/vm/gowork/src/github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector/broker (from $GOPATH)

And then the same thing for gopublisher.go and other components. I added
GoVector as git submodule to our project and did the import from the root
of the project "project/GoVector/govec" where project is root directory
of our project. As far as I understand GOROOT needs to be set when you
install go into a custom directory, but I haven't. GOPATH is working fine
(so far) and is pointing to $HOME/gowork where the project is as well.
Should GoVector be installed under $GOPATH as well for this to work? I was
trying to make it self contained by having it as submodule.

Some info:

• GoVector cloned using git submodule init
• project is at $GOPATH/src/project
• GoVector is at $GOPATH/src/project/GoVector
• the file that's importing GoVector is at $GOPATH/src/project/server
• import statement "project/GoVector/govec"

I would really appreciate some help. Might be something I am doing wrong.
Thanks.

Hi Mike, I used git submodule and checked directory structure - it seems that everything is there. I tried the suggestion and changed import to project/GoVector/broker and got this:

GoVector/broker/pubmanager.go:12:2: cannot find package "github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector/broker/nonce" in any of: /usr/lib/go/src/pkg/github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector/broker/nonce (from $GOROOT) /home/sergey/gowork/src/github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector/broker/nonce (from $GOPATH)

Then I tried changing import just to "./../GoVector/broker", which should reach GoVector directory but I get the same error.

I also tried specifying missing packages (I checked - they are in the filesystem):
"project_h2b9_s8z8_y4n8/GoVector/broker"
"project_h2b9_s8z8_y4n8/GoVector/broker/nonce"
"project_h2b9_s8z8_y4n8/GoVector/govec/vclock"

But they are still missing. Here is a full error message when I do those three imports (sorry, I can't find proper formatting for chunks of code):

GoVector/broker/pubmanager.go:12:2: cannot find package "github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector/broker/nonce" in any of:

Hmmm. I see that the imports were fixed recently to point to the github paths. When I run
go get github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector
It brings in the full package.
I haven't brought in a copy of a library to modify in a while, so I can't recall what needs editing to do it that way at the moment.

If you don't need to modify the source files, try removing the govec source from your project source files and just do the go get above. Sorry I can't be more helpful :(

Thanks Mike. I followed instructions on the README.md file that say that I need to add GoVector to the project. I haven't thought of using go get to install it. I will do that and report here. I don't intend to modify source code. Thank you for your help.
UPDATE: I tried running go get github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector and I am getting this error:

package github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector
imports github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector
imports github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector: no buildable Go source files in /home/sergey/gowork/src/github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector

GoVector is in $GOPATH directory completely, but does not seem to build if I understand it. I haven't had issues installing other packages (like golint and gotags) before. I am not sure if this is a problem with my environment or not.

Try go get github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector/govec https://github.com/arcaneiceman/GoVector/blob/master/example/ClientServer.go#L9

Looks like that actually worked. It's no longer complaining about build files and project runs. Thanks for responses and your help - really nice to have that.
