Build Fails Due to Dependency Version Mismatch

[deer8888]

Description

While rebuilding the project using the latest version of Go, with Go's official recommendation to use gomodule for initialization and building, we found that the build process fails due to mismatched module path.

The following error log was produced during the build process:

......
go: found k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/fields in k8s.io/apimachinery v0.31.0
go: github.com/dpetzold/kube-resource-explorer/pkg/kube imports
        github.com/Sirupsen/logrus: github.com/Sirupsen/[email protected]: parsing go.mod:
        module declares its path as: github.com/sirupsen/logrus
                but was required as: github.com/Sirupsen/logrus

Result

The build fails with errors related to mismatched module path.

The error dependency is github.com/Sirupsen/logrus.

Reason

The error log suggests module path declaration github.com/sirupsen/logrus in go.mod, which is inconsistent with import path github.com/Sirupsen/logrus .

Proposed Solution

To resolve this issue, we analyzed the project and identified the correct versions of the required dependencies.

The analysis shows that the correct declaration for the dependency is replace github.com/Sirupsen/logrus => github.com/sirupsen/logrus v1.8.1 .

Consider adopting this suggested version to prevent other developers from encountering build failures when constructing the project.

This information can be documented in the README.md file or another relevant location.

Additional Suggestions

To ensure reproducible builds and align with the evolving trends of the Go programming language, it is recommended that the current project be migrated to the Go module mechanism.

Updating to the go module mechanism allows for managing third-party dependency versions through the go.mod file, which provides a centralized and consistent way to specify dependency constraints.

We have generated a go.mod file with the correct versions of the third-party dependencies needed for this project.

The suggested go.mod file is as follows:

require github.com/golang/protobuf v1.5.4

require github.com/ryanuber/columnize v2.1.2+incompatible

replace github.com/Sirupsen/logrus => github.com/sirupsen/logrus v1.8.1
