Use replace directives in go.mod in development only

[ORESoftware]

Problem

My go.mod file has:

replace github.com/channelmeter/send-to-rollbar-via-stdin => ../send-to-rollbar-via-stdin

this replace directive works in dev but not in prod. How can I ignore certain replace directives when running go install in prod? I want the replace directive to be ignored.

The error shows up as follows:

Step 27/43 : RUN go install -v  2>&1
 ---> Running in 1d1717578978
go: github.com/channelmeter/send-to-rollbar-via-stdin@v0.0.0-20200922010219-c39f088cd56d: parsing ../send-to-rollbar-via-stdin/go.mod: open /go/src/github.com/channelmeter/send-to-rollbar-via-stdin/go.mod: no such file or directory

What did you do?

I ran go install in prod, which breaks since prod fs in a docker container is not like my local fs.

I think this is entirely covered by #26640.

Closing as a dup, since you gave a thumbs up.
