Documentation not displayed on pkg.go.dev due to missing LICENSE file about packer-plugin-goss HOT 8 CLOSED

@marco-m I guess https://pkg.go.dev/ should run scancode-toolkit for better results ;)

Thanks for the report. PR #44 adds a LICENSE file but it seems like pkg.go.dev stopped pulling this repo at v1.4.0 😕

I'm poking around to see if it's something with the mod file or rep; I haven't seen this problem before....

from packer-plugin-goss.

It looks like the problem is the update to v2.x.x

https://blog.golang.org/v2-go-modules

This major version update was necessitated by packaging differences for the binary (its zipped by the github action)... I'm not sure this is important enough to rework the structure of the repository for now.

@fishnix I dug (once more, I keep forgetting) in the Go modules documentation.
I think that this should be fixed by replacing

module github.com/YaleUniversity/packer-provisioner-goss

with

module github.com/YaleUniversity/packer-provisioner-goss/v2

in the go.mod file (and update imports paths as needed).

The problem is not only that the documentation is not displayed; the problem is that go get of anything >= v2.0 currently fails:

go get github.com/YaleUniversity/[email protected]
go get: github.com/YaleUniversity/[email protected]: invalid version:
  module contains a go.mod file, so major version must be compatible: should be v0 or v1, not v2

Your comment

makes me think that you were referring to having a directory per version, as suggested in the blog post. Luckily, that is not mandatory.

yes, I read the doc as having to change the structure of the repository. if we just need to update the go.mod, that works for me. I can give it a shot.

This is the reference: golang/go#35732 (comment)

@marco-m still no dice from what I can tell after that change. Someone will have to spend some time poking at this I think.

@fishnix I think I mislead you with the go get example above #41 (comment).

Your changes do work:

$ go get github.com/YaleUniversity/packer-provisioner-goss/v3
go: downloading github.com/YaleUniversity/packer-provisioner-goss/v3 v3.0.2
go: downloading github.com/hashicorp/packer-plugin-sdk v0.0.11
...

and the effect of this go get [1] is that finally https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/YaleUniversity/packer-provisioner-goss got a

The highest tagged major version is v3.

and following that link: https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/YaleUniversity/packer-provisioner-goss/v3 YEAH
