First  we need GOPATH  The  GOPATH is a folder  or set of folders  specified by its environment variable  We must notice that this is not the  GOROOT directory where Go is installed   export GOPATH  HOME gocode export PATH  PATH  GOPATH bin   We used   gocode path in our computer to store the source of our application and its dependencies  The GOPATH directory will also store the binaries of their packages   Then check Go env  You system must have  GOPATH and  GOROOT  below is my Env   GOARCH  amd64  GOBIN    GOCHAR  6  GOEXE    GOHOSTARCH  amd64  GOHOSTOS  linux  GOOS  linux  GOPATH   home elpsstu gocode  GORACE    GOROOT   home pravin go  GOTOOLDIR   home pravin go pkg tool linux amd64  CC  gcc  GOGCCFLAGS  -fPIC -m64 -pthread -fmessage-length 0  CXX  g    CGO ENABLED  1    Now  you run download go package   go get  -d   -f   -fix   -t   -u   build flags   packages    Get downloads and installs the packages named by the import paths  along with their dependencies  For more details you can look here

Command go      Download and install packages and dependencies      Usage   go get  -d   -f   -t   -u   -v   -fix   -insecure   build flags   packages        Get downloads the packages named by the import paths  along with their   dependencies  It then installs the named packages  like  go install        The -d flag instructs get to stop after downloading the packages  that   is  it instructs get not to install the packages       The -f flag  valid only when -u is set  forces get -u not to verify   that each package has been checked out from the source control   repository implied by its import path  This can be useful if the   source is a local fork of the original       The -fix flag instructs get to run the fix tool on the downloaded   packages before resolving dependencies or building the code       The -insecure flag permits fetching from repositories and resolving   custom domains using insecure schemes such as HTTP  Use with caution       The -t flag instructs get to also download the packages required to   build the tests for the specified packages       The -u flag instructs get to use the network to update the named   packages and their dependencies  By default  get uses the network to   check out missing packages but does not use it to look for updates to   existing packages       The -v flag enables verbose progress and debug output       Get also accepts build flags to control the installation  See  go help   build        When checking out a new package  get creates the target directory   GOPATH src   If the GOPATH contains multiple entries  get   uses the first one  For more details see   go help gopath        When checking out or updating a package  get looks for a branch or tag   that matches the locally installed version of Go  The most important   rule is that if the local installation is running version  go1   get   searches for a branch or tag named  go1   If no such version exists it   retrieves the default branch of the package       When go get checks out or updates a Git repository  it also updates   any git submodules referenced by the repository       Get never checks out or updates code stored in vendor directories       For more about specifying packages  see  go help packages        For more about how  go get  finds source code to download  see  go   help importpath        This text describes the behavior of get when using GOPATH to manage   source code and dependencies  If instead the go command is running in   module-aware mode  the details of get s flags and effects change  as   does  go help get   See  go help modules  and  go help module-get        See also  go build  go install  go clean      For example  showing verbose output     go get -v github com capotej groupcache-db-experiment     github com capotej groupcache-db-experiment  download  github com golang groupcache  download  github com golang protobuf  download  github com capotej groupcache-db-experiment api github com capotej groupcache-db-experiment client github com capotej groupcache-db-experiment slowdb github com golang groupcache consistenthash github com golang protobuf proto github com golang groupcache lru github com capotej groupcache-db-experiment dbserver github com capotej groupcache-db-experiment cli github com golang groupcache singleflight github com golang groupcache groupcachepb github com golang groupcache github com capotej groupcache-db-experiment frontend
