go get in Dockerfile. I got cannot find package error

I added RUN go get to install packages during "docker-compose". However, the following cannot find package error was occurred when I run go build. I found that the packages are saved in /go/pkg/linux_amd64/.

run docker-compose and go build

$ docker-compose up -d
$ docker exec -it explorer-cli /bin/bash
# pwd
/go
# ls     
bin  pkg  src
# echo $GOPATH
/go
# ls /go/pkg/linux_amd64/github.com/
go-sql-driver
# go build -i -o /go/bin/explorer-cli src/main.go 
src/main.go:6:2: cannot find package "github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql" in any of:
    /usr/local/go/src/github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql (from $GOROOT)
    /go/src/github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql (from $GOPATH)

(it worked if I run "go get" manually)
# go get github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql
# ls src/
github.com  main.go
# go build -i -o /go/bin/explorer-cli src/main.go

docker-compose.yml

version: '3.4'

services:
  mysql:
    image: mysql:latest
    container_name: database
    volumes:
      - ./docker/:/etc/mysql/conf.d
      - ./docker/:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d
    environment:
      - MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD=true

Dockerfile

FROM golang:latest

RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get upgrade -y

ENV GOBIN /go/bin

RUN go get github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql

main.go

package main

import (
    "database/sql"

    _ "github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql"
)

func main() {
    db, err := sql.Open("mysql", "admin:12dlql*41@(database:3306)/explorer")
    if err != nil {
        panic(err.Error())
    }
    defer db.Close()
}

Update 1

I noticed big differences between the following directories.

# ls /go/pkg/linux_amd64/github.com/go-sql-driver/
mysql.a

# ls /go/src/github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql/

Update 2

As @aerokite said, the "volumes" was overwriting the downloaded packages. I changed like the followings and it worked.

Dockerfile

version: '3.4'

FROM golang:latest

RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get upgrade -y

ENV GOBIN /go/bin

RUN go get github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql

RUN mkdir /go/src/explorer-cli

docker-compose

services:
  mysql:
    image: mysql:latest
    container_name: database
    volumes:
      - ./docker/:/etc/mysql/conf.d
      - ./docker/:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d
    environment:
      - MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD=true
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=explorer
      - MYSQL_USER=admin
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=12dlql*41
  app:
    build: .
    tty: true
    image: explorer-cli:latest
    container_name: explorer-cli
    volumes:
      - ./src/explorer-cli:/go/src/explorer-cli
    external_links:
      - database

go build

go build -i -o /go/bin/explorer-cli src/explorer-cli/main.go

I have tried to recreate your problem.

FROM golang:latest

RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get upgrade -y

ENV GOBIN /go/bin

RUN go get github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql

You have provided this Dockerfile. I have build it

$ docker build -t test .

Now I exec into this image to run your go build command.

$ docker run -it test bash

Then I have created main.go, you provided, in /go/src directory.

And finally, I have built successfully without any error

$ go build -i -o /go/bin/explorer-cli src/main.go

And I think I have found your problem. I have never used docker-compose. But you will understand.

Problem is here:

  app:
    build: .
    tty: true
    image: explorer-cli:latest
    container_name: explorer-cli
    volumes:
      - ./src:/go/src  <-- problem is here
    external_links:
      - database

You are mounting ./src into /go/src directory in your docker. This process is overwriting directory /go/src in your docker with your local ./src. And this is removing data you got from go get github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql

Do you understand?

But when you are running go get github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql, its now getting data again.

Solution (01):

Mount your local volume into somewhere else.

volumes:
  - ./src:/tmp/src

And modify your Dockerfile to move this main.go to /go/src

Solution (02):

Copy main.go into your docker. Add this line in Dockerfile

COPY ./src/main.go /go/src
