Cannot install directly from github

[chamini2]

Problem statement

It seems that the github installation is not working. I have tried other method of installation but since this installs INSIDE a docker container, I do not know how to get it.

Steps to reproduce

$ go get -u github.com/go-swagger/go-swagger/cmd/swagger
package github.com/hashicorp/hcl/hcl/printer: cannot find package "github.com/hashicorp/hcl/hcl/printer" in any of:
	/usr/local/Cellar/go/1.13.4/libexec/src/github.com/hashicorp/hcl/hcl/printer (from $GOROOT)
	/Users/redacted/.go/src/github.com/hashicorp/hcl/hcl/printer (from $GOPATH)

Environment

swagger version: x.x.x
go version:

go version
go version go1.13.4 darwin/amd64

OS: macOS 11.1

I ran this $ go get -u github.com/go-swagger/go-swagger/cmd/swagger and it successfully installed it.
Can you show output of go env command?
The other way to install is to download from release. See: #2558 (comment)

some time ago there was a hcl dir in the hashicorp/hcl repo: https://github.com/hashicorp/hcl/tree/819a65acc453ba35681e287fa31f5f0bb084ddb9/hcl
but it's not there anymore.

you can install easier like this: go get github.com/go-swagger/go-swagger/cmd/swagger@latest

It makes use of go modules and so will use the dependency versions we built and tested against

[youyuanwu]

In your go env output there is no:

GO111MODULE="on"

You should export it in your environment.
Try

$ GO111MODULE="on" go get -u github.com/go-swagger/go-swagger/cmd/swagger

Or as suggested above

$ GO111MODULE="on" go get github.com/go-swagger/go-swagger/cmd/swagger@latest

Or to get latest release

$ GO111MODULE="on" go get github.com/go-swagger/go-swagger/cmd/swagger@v0.27.0

Thanks for the possible solutions. I am no longer working on this but did not want to leave the issue open. It's probably the GO111MODULE variable.
