Issue with GO111MODULE=on

[davedbase]

I'm having some trouble with enabling GO111MODULE=on. I was able to go through the whole process of setting up the repository and building V8 from scratch. When I run go test I get the following result:

PASS
ok  	github.com/augustoroman/v8	9.433s

I installed the package at $GOPATH/src/github.com/augustoroman/v8. Everything seems to work well on OS X so far. However when I attempt importing with import "github.com/augustoroman/v8" in my own separate project I got a complaint. Remembering back I realized that I have GO111MODULE=on enabled. This prompted me to add a go.mod with the following in the root of the v8 folder:

module github.com/augustoroman/v8
go 1.12

When I attempt running I get another error:

go: finding github.com/augustoroman/v8 latest
go: downloading github.com/augustoroman/v8 v8.0.0-20190418063024-4b66934a28a7
main.go:3:8: unknown import path "github.com/augustoroman/v8": cannot find module providing package github.com/augustoroman/v8

Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

Yeah, this issue is discussed here: golang/go#28435. I am also having this problem. It appears that the Go package resolver interprets the repository name as a major release branch because it starts with v. Have not found a satisfactory resolution to this, and I've gone as far as forking all relevant repositories to rename them.

So aside from being a total blocker rn until it's patched I suppose the only real way to handle this is change GO111MODULE to off? I'm honestly blown away that this is an issue. Wow.

@ddibiase any news on it?

[joesonw]

@olegsu I forked this one and include precompiled 6.3 with it. https://github.com/joesonw/js8 . Now you can directly go get github.com/joesonw/js8 without any other steps. And it works with bazel

@joesonw Thanks for that! Unfortunately it still doesn't work for me:

 go: finding github.com/augustoroman/v8 latest
github.com/superhuman/backend/lib/js imports
	github.com/joesonw/js8 tested by
	github.com/joesonw/js8.test imports
	github.com/augustoroman/v8: no matching versions for query "latest"

[joesonw]

@ConradIrwin ts seems like that this was a cached old version. Do you happen to use GOPROXY? Can you try go get github.com/joesonw/[email protected] which is the true latest version.

@joesonw thanks, specifying 'github.com/joesonw/js8 6.3.292.48.1-bazel-2019-10-19-16-00' in my go.mod fixed it. I don't use a GOPROXY.
