Can't use with echo/v4 (Go Modules)

[andradei]

This project seems to not be able to be used when importing echo as github.com/labstack/echo/v4 with Go Modules.

package main

import (
	"github.com/gorilla/sessions"
	"github.com/labstack/echo-contrib/session"
	"github.com/labstack/echo/v4"
	"github.com/labstack/echo/v4/middleware"
)

func main() {
	e := echo.New()
	e.Renderer = &controller.Template{}
	e.Use(middleware.Logger())
       // Error here
	e.Use(session.Middleware(sessions.NewCookieStore([]byte("secret"))))

The error message is:

cannot use session.Middleware(sessions.NewCookieStore(([]byte)(\"secret\"))) (type \"github.com/labstack/echo\".MiddlewareFunc) as type \"github.com/labstack/echo/v4\".MiddlewareFunc in argument to e.Use

This should fix it:

• go.mod
• changing the imports to github.com/labstack/echo/v4
• Having a v4.0.0 tag/release to accompany github.com/labstack/echo's move to v4.0.0

I can make a PR if this is approved.

I have the same issue. How did you fix it, please?

go mod init <your-app-name>
go get github.com/labstack/echo/v4
