I am mirroring a popular go library in my organizations gitlab's group (for redundancy).
In my code I have: import ( "gitlab.com/org/group/library.git" )
I used this answer for guidance on using go get with a private repository. On my machine go get ./... works because I configured git using the following command:
$ git config --global url.git@gitlab.com:.insteadOf https://gitlab.com/
When I try to build a docker container the command RUN go get ./... fails with the following output:
package gitlab.com/org/group/library.git: cannot download, git://gitlab.com/org/group/library uses insecure protocol
It seems the popular answer from a similar thread or this article is to do something like upload your ssh keys to the docker container. I don't really feel comfortable with that because I don't exactly understand what is doing, or the security implications.
Any insight on how to properly configure my dockerfile or my golang work flow would be of great assistance.
It appears that golang v1.11 includes modules.
To quote the source
A module is a collection of related Go packages that are versioned together as a single unit. Most often, a single version-control repository corresponds exactly to a single module.
Using the latest version of golang along with modules allows me to use all of my dependencies.
