Go package import cant be found-CodePudding

I'm new to Go and trying to import the jwx package found

but when I go into the import section of the go file I get the following error:

Any ideas?

CodePudding user response：

Have a look at a fresh full working session below, hope it can help you find what it's wrong with your procedure.

Make sure we are using a recent Go version

$ go version
go version go1.18.1 linux/amd64

Make sure that GOPATH is unset

$ echo $GOPATH

$

Create and initialize a new module

$ mkdir /tmp/example
$ cd /tmp/example
$ go mod init example.com/example
go: creating new go.mod: module example.com/example
$

Write the test program

$ cat > main.go
package main

import (
    "fmt"

    "github.com/lestrrat-go/jwx/v2/jwk"
)

func main() {
    fmt.Println(jwk.Cache{})
}
$
