How to Use `go get` with Locally Hosted Git Repositories?

Using Go Get with Repositories on Local Servers

Question:

How to use go get with a git repository hosted on a local server?

Answer:

Using Packages and Modules with Local Git Repositories

To use Go packages and modules with git repositories on private servers (IP addresses like 10.xxx.yyy.zzz or 192.168.xxx.yyy), follow these steps:

Prerequisites:

• Latest Go version with GOPATH set
• Another computer for creating git repositories (your private git server)
• SSH key access to the private git server

Setup:

• Create a directory structure outside your GOPATH and place the dateutil.go and stringutil.go files as shown below:

package
├── github
│   ├── dateutil
│   │   └── src
│   │       └── datepackage
│   │           └── dateutil.go
│   └── stringutil
│       └── src
│           └── stringpackage
│               └── stringutil.go
└── your-local-git-repo-hostname
    ├── dateutil
    │   └── src
    │       └── datepackage
    │           └── dateutil.go
    └── stringutil
        └── src
            └── stringpackage
                └── stringutil.go

Creating Repositories

• Create bare git repositories on your private git server for both dateutil and stringutil directories.
• Assign ssh key access to your private git server.
• Configure your .gitconfig file to use ssh instead of https for private servers:

git config --global url."[email protected]:".insteadOf "https://192.168.0.12/"

Using Git Repositories

• Copy the dateutil.go and stringutil.go files into the directories under your-local-git-repo-hostname.
• Create and push the local git repositories to your private git server.

Using go get

• Add a .git suffix to the repository path when using go get:

go get 192.168.0.12/gitrepo/go-package-test-stringutil.git/stringpackage
go get 192.168.0.12/gitrepo/go-package-test-dateutil.git/datepackage

Key Differences:

When using repositories on a local server versus GitHub:

• .gitconfig modification
• .git suffix in go get statements
• Hostname in go get and import statements must have a dot
