I built a small Golang application and I want to run it on a Docker container.
I wrote the following Dockerfile:
# syntax=docker/dockerfile:1
FROM golang:1.16-alpine
WORKDIR /app
COPY go.mod ./
COPY go.sum ./
RUN go mod download
COPY ./* .
RUN go env -w GO111MODULE=on
RUN go build -o /docker-gs-ping
EXPOSE 8080
CMD [ "/docker-gs-ping" ]
However, when I run the command:
docker build --tag docker-gs-ping .
I get the errors:
#16 0.560 found packages controllers (controller.go) and repositories (csv_file_repository.go) in /app
#16 0.560 main.go:4:2: package MyExercise/controllers is not in GOROOT (/usr/local/go/src/MyExercise/controllers)
I want to mention that the package controllers exists in my working directory and all files associated with this directory are placed in MyExercise/controllers folder.
Do you know how to resolve this error?
Edit:
This is the directory tree:

Do
go mod vendor
in your app directory. Documentaion.For build the container
docker build -t app:v1 .
Dockerfile
There is actually an issue with your Dockerfile.
COPY ./* .
does not actually do what you think. It will copy all files recursively in a flat structure to the
/app
directory.Modify your Dockerfile to something like:
Basically, remove all of the
COPY
directives and replace with a singleADD
directive
