[Question] Install kratos cli with a specific version

[szeseong]

Is it possible to install kratos cli with a specific version like v2.0.5 instead of latest?

When I ran below line:
go install github.com/go-kratos/kratos/cmd/kratos/v2@v2.0.5

I got this
go install: github.com/go-kratos/kratos/cmd/kratos/v2@v2.0.5: github.com/go-kratos/kratos@v2.0.5: invalid version: module contains a go.mod file, so major version must be compatible: should be v0 or v1, not v2

Because kratos tool have no version, due to the problem of gomod. Please use go install github.com/go-kratos/kratos/cmd/kratos/v2@latest

As I'm not ready to use kratos v2.1.0. I'm using go install github.com/go-kratos/kratos/cmd/kratos/v2@f3e75bffca735a5c1b5ae388814aed0e37388f09 which depends on kratos 2.0.3.

ok. But kratos tool just a command line tool, even if you use Kratos 2.0.3, it is recommended to use the latest version of kratos tool.

My project is still based on kratos v2.0.5. When I run go install github.com/go-kratos/kratos/cmd/kratos/v2@latest the go.mod in my project will be upgraded to kratos v2.1.0. Is there a way to prevent go install modify my go.mod?

[daemon365]

you can use kratos new test -b v2.0.5
