What did you do?

Here is the code:

import (
	"fmt"
	"go-clean-arch/domain/models"
	"go-clean-arch/domain/repositories"
)

I am using vscode and golang extension. When I hover to the import statement, the output of gopls give me this error.

What did you expect to see?

I try it using goland IDE, it works fine.

What did you see instead?

This error when hover to the import statement:

could not import go-clean-arch/domain/repositories (no parsed files for package go-clean-arch/domain/repositories)LSP

After update some golang tools, I found this issue solved:

set GO111MODULE=ON go get -u -v github.com/mdempsky/gocode go get -u -v github.com/ramya-rao-a/go-outline go get -u -v golang.org/x/tools/cmd/gorename … I guess that gopls or vscode may need the golang tools to implement some lsp functions. If these tools are not updated to be located at $GOPATH/pkg/, gopls may fail.

28.497661ms for GOROOT= GOPATH=/Users/alan/work/goprojects GO111MODULE=auto PWD=/Users/alan/ go "list" "-m" "-json" "all", stderr: <<go list -m: not using modules

So I think I had a similar problem. What I noticed in the above log line was that the PWD was set to the root of the workspace directory I’d opened, rather than the root of the go project I was working on. I cleared my workspace and opened just the root of the project I was working on and all errors resolved.

Hope that helps.

It looks like gopls was unable to find any files for this import. What happens if you run go list -e -compiled -json /path/to/package where /path/to/package is the absolute path to the package you are working in?

Also, can you try to repro with the latest version of gopls on master (go get -u golang.org/x/tools/gopls@master)? We have recently made some changes that may have fixed this.
