Go Get Golang Private Module

Sunday Snippet #2 go get golang private module

I assume before fetching golang private module, you already have put your public SSH key on your git repository.

$ mkdir example && cd example $ go mod init example go: creating new go.mod: module example # this is my private repo, this attempt will produce error $ go get github.com/clavinjune/testing@latest go get github.com/clavinjune/testing@latest: module github.com/clavinjune/testing: git ls-remote -q origin in [redacted]: exit status 128: fatal: could not read Username for 'https://github.com': terminal prompts disabled Confirm the import path was entered correctly. If this is a private repository, see https://golang.org/doc/faq#git_https for additional information. # change the https to ssh, go get will try fetching your private module using your SSH key $ git config --global --add url."git@github.com:".insteadOf "https://github.com/" $ go get github.com/clavinjune/testing@latest go get: added github.com/clavinjune/testing v1.0.0 # success! But if above method still doesn't work set GOPRIVATE first $ go env -w GOPRIVATE="github.com/clavinjune/*" # then, go get again
