Golang – problem with creating docker image

I try to make docker image, but when I run cmd in terminal.

sudo docker build testapi .

I get an error:

 => ERROR [6/6] RUN go build -o /app/testapi/cmd/test-api                                                                                                              0.3s

File structure

  /...
 Dockerfile

Dockerfile:

FROM golang:1.16-alpine

WORKDIR /app

COPY go.mod ./

RUN go mod download

COPY . ./

RUN go build -o /app/testapi/cmd/test-api

EXPOSE 8080

CMD [ "/testapi/cmd/test-api" ]

    Try this way.

    Also do not forget to add go.sum in Dockerfile if you have. COPY go.sum .

    FROM golang:1.16-alpine

WORKDIR /app

COPY go.mod .

COPY . .

RUN go build -o main ./cmd/<FOLDER_NAME>

WORKDIR /dist

RUN cp /app/main .

EXPOSE 3000

CMD ["/dist/main"]

    Works fine
