Build failing on Travis CI with go-playground

[iomz]

"go get -v -t ./..." failed. It couldn't resolve the dependency?

I've recently have had the same problem. It comes down to a dependency failure : cannot find package "github.com/go-playground/validator/v10" in any of. It happens when you do ``dep ensure``` as well

This problem has been asked in here. It looks like some kind of issues between dep and go modules, which are incompatible I assume.

I have managed to install the program by ditching dep completely and switching to go modules. You can find a tutorial here. You would Go 1.11+.

TL;DR
This method works with Go 1.11, 1.12, and should work with every 1.X future release.

• move your code outside of GOPATH
• go mod init [module path]: this will import dependencies from Gopkg.lock.
• go mod tidy: this will remove unnecessary imports, and add indirect ones.
• rm -fr vendor/
• go build: is everthing ok?
• rm -f Gopkg.lock Gopkg.toml
• git commit -m 'chore(dep): migrated from dep to Go 1.11 modules'

To install the program in the future, you would just do go build

I would do a pull request, but I'm not sure about your Go setup

Thanks a bunch for the workaround. I'll take a look.

@HanYangZhao Thanks! It's resolved now.
