Go with multiple packages CLI and GoLand

I have a simple project in Go to learn how to write web services and I am using GoLand as my IDE to get started. The structure looks like this:



- gitlab.com
- eln00b
- main.go
- api
- api.go
- routes.go
- fancything
- fancything.go


The api/api.go file looks like this:



package api

func Start() {
Routes()
}


The api/routes.go file looks like this:



package api

import (
log "github.com/sirupsen/logrus"
)

func Routes() {
log.Info("hello from routes!")
}


The problem I am having in both the IDE and the CLI is that api.go cannot see the function defined in routes.rb. I tried searching through StackOverflow and nothing seems to be solving my problem.



If I run go build *.go from within the api folder, I get:




command-line-arguments

./api.go:20:2: undefined: Routes




The same thing happens running go build in the eln00b directory. I cannot get the project to compile in GoLand to boot.



I think I am missing some fundamental understanding of how things work or are supposed to be structured in a Go project. Help!

  • Your example (at least api.go and routes.go files) compiles fine. Maybe your IDE didn't save those files fully yet?

  • I'm not sure what I did, but it compiles from both GoLand and the command line now. Completely unsure what was going on. :-|
