Error in compiling golang after migrating to centos

I was migrating my Golang programs from windows to Centos 7

It worked perfectly in Windows
but when I tried to compile on centos I get errors like

main.go:20:3: cannot find package "github.com/BurntSushi/toml" in any of:
        /usr/local/go/src/github.com/BurntSushi/toml (from $GOROOT)
        /root/work/src/github.com/BurntSushi/toml (from $GOPATH)
main.go:15:3: cannot find package "github.com/dgrijalva/jwt-go" in any of:
        /usr/local/go/src/github.com/dgrijalva/jwt-go (from $GOROOT)
        /root/work/src/github.com/dgrijalva/jwt-go (from $GOPATH)
main.go:16:3: cannot find package "github.com/gwlkm_service/config" in any of:
        /usr/local/go/src/github.com/gwlkm_service/config (from $GOROOT)
        /root/work/src/github.com/gwlkm_service/config (from $GOPATH)

kinda new to centos so idk what to do

    looks like you have configured your GOPATH, without Go Module, you can use go get [package path] to download imported packages.

    go get github.com/BurntSushi/toml
go get github.com/dgrijalva/jwt-go
go get github.com/gwlkm_service/config

    Precisely

    your go installation on server seems in /usr/local/go and
    your project is in /root/work
    so all your dependencies should be either in /root/work/src or /usr/local/go/src

    now coming to action check your GOPATH with running echo $GOPATH
    assuming it is automatically set to /usr/local/go/src
    If not then follow – How do I SET the GOPATH environment variable on Ubuntu? What file must I edit?

    If everything is ok then in your folder run go mod init

    this will create mod file which will help you in further installations
    look into – https://blog.golang.org/using-go-modules

    then run go get commands as above @beiping96 said

    go get github.com/BurntSushi/toml
    go get github.com/dgrijalva/jwt-go
    go get github.com/gwlkm_service/config

    NOTE – after completing above process you will generate go modules file(same as package.json) and in future you won’t need to care about dependencies
