CompileDeamon not found golang 1.18

[valensto]

Hi,

Cannot run CompileDeamon as Entrypoint of dockerfile with golang 1.18
Working on golang:1.17.8-alpine3.15 with same ENTRYPOINT

tested with go get github.com/githubnemo/CompileDaemon@latest

@valensto I faced same issue when i updated golang to 1.18
the reason is
golang:1.17.8-alpine came with the git executable - presumably to accommodate go get - but golang:1.18-alpine does not - presumably because of the breaking change to go get that accompanied the new version.

go install github.com/githubnemo/CompileDaemon@latest
also add
RUN apk add --no-cache git to dockerfile

I'm with same error with golang:1.18

go 1.18 no longer supports go get , you need go install
did this solve your error ?

@Denes-cilwal i was experiencing the same issue and can confirm replacing "go get" with "go install" fixed it for me

@Denes-cilwal thanks for the answer.
With golang:1.18 it worked adding:
RUN apt-get install git and go install github.com/githubnemo/CompileDaemon@latest

With golang:1.18-alpine
I got the follwing error when it starts to build the application:
error obtaining VCS status: exit status 128
Use -buildvcs=false to disable VCS stamping.

But thats ok, I'm not using alpine for my tests here.
Thanks again

UPDATE:
I tested the image golang:1.18 without RUN apt-get install git and it worked too o//

I see thanks for your update 👍🏾

example

main repo
- sub app repo <- I got it here, Use -buildvcs=false to disable VCS stamping.
- ...

Decision

`
FROM golang:alpine

WORKDIR /go/src/app

ENV GOFLAGS="-buildvcs=false" <- it helped!

COPY go.mod go.sum ./

RUN go mod download && go mod verify

RUN go install github.com/githubnemo/CompileDaemon@latest

CMD ["CompileDaemon", "-command=./app"]
