Docker build : "go: go.mod file not found in current directory or any parent directory"

I am trying to build a Dockerfile of my Golang application which includes delve debugger - I want to debug my Golang application in Docker container.

When I try to build my Docker I consistently go error below:

Step 5/9 : RUN go build -gcflags "all=-N -l" -o ./feedme
 ---> Running in a0579ec8a85c
go: go.mod file not found in current directory or any parent directory; see 'go help modules'

The command go build runs well on my local folder(refer tree commands below)

go build -gcflags "all=-N -l" -o ./feedme

Here are my folder structure and files:

tree
.
├── Dockerfile
├── Makefile
├── docker-compose.yml
└── parsedata-xml-fp.go

0 directories, 4 files

Single application file parsedata-xml-fp.go (I will dismiss it , since I think the error has nothing to do with it)

My Dockerfile :

FROM golang:1.17 AS build
WORKDIR /
COPY . .
RUN go install github.com/go-delve/delve/cmd/dlv@latest
RUN go build -gcflags "all=-N -l" -o ./feedme

EXPOSE 8000 2345 

COPY --from=build /go/bin/dlv /dlv
COPY --from=build /feedme /feedme

CMD ["/dlv", "--listen=:2345", "--headless=true", "--api-version=2", "--accept-multiclient", "exec", "/feedme"]

Any idea why this error occur and how can I fix it ? I searched for it and tried to set some env variable:

1) RUN GO111MODULE=off/on
2) RUN CGO_ENABLED=0

Seems like none of them works

Edit: I modified my Dockerfile added 'go mod init feedme' and I got some new error:

New Dockerfile

FROM golang:1.17 AS build

WORKDIR /
COPY . .
RUN go mod init feedme
RUN go mod tidy

RUN GO111MODULE=auto
RUN go build -gcflags="all=-N -l" -o /feedme

EXPOSE 8000 2345 

COPY --from=build /go/bin/dlv /dlv
COPY --from=build /feedme /feedme

CMD ["/dlv", "--listen=:2345", "--headless=true", "--api-version=2", "--accept-multiclient", "exec", "/feedme"]

CodePudding user response:

The credit goes to @TheFool, thank you for the documents and guidance. I read official Docker documents : docs.docker.com/language/golang/ and also multi staging build blog

Here is the solution I came up with and I can boot my Go application container locally

Dockerfile of mine:

FROM golang:1.17 AS build

WORKDIR /
COPY . .

RUN go mod init feedme
RUN go mod tidy

RUN go install github.com/go-delve/delve/cmd/dlv@latest
RUN go build -gcflags="all=-N -l" -o /feedme
RUN echo $(ls /go/bin)

FROM gcr.io/distroless/base-debian10
WORKDIR /

EXPOSE 2345 

COPY --from=build /go/bin/dlv /dlv
COPY --from=build /feedme ~/feedme
#ENTRYPOINT [ "/dlv" ]
CMD ["/dlv", "--listen=:2345", "--headless=true", "--api-version=2", "--accept-multiclient", "exec", "~/feedme"]

I boot my container using :

docker run -p 2345:2345 <docker image ID>

Then I tried to curl to it , it does have response:

curl http://localhost:2345

[Edit] Per suggestion from TheFool, I used my local copy of go.mod and go.sum directly in my container. COPY it from my local workspace to container,(rather than generate go.mod in the container) to avoid any unexpected surprise in the future:

Here is the improved version of Dockerfile

FROM golang:1.17 AS build

WORKDIR /
COPY go/app/parsedata-xml-fp.go .
COPY go.mod .   # just copy local go.mod
COPY go.sum .

RUN go install github.com/go-delve/delve/cmd/dlv@latest
RUN go build -gcflags="all=-N -l" -o /feedme
RUN echo $(ls /go/bin)

FROM gcr.io/distroless/base-debian10
WORKDIR /

EXPOSE 2345 

COPY --from=build /go/bin/dlv /dlv
COPY --from=build /feedme ~/feedme
#ENTRYPOINT [ "/dlv" ]
CMD ["/dlv", "--listen=:2345", "--headless=true", "--api-version=2", "--accept-multiclient", "exec", "~/feedme"]
