Cannot find package "http://github.com/prometheus/common/log"

Problem

When I run the following command:

go get -u github.com/sequra/logstash_exporter
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/sequra/logstash_exporter && make

It fails with the error:

package http://github.com/prometheus/common/log: 
  cannot find package "http://github.com/prometheus/common/log" in any of:
    /usr/local/go/src/github.com/prometheus/common/log (from $GOROOT)
    /go/src/github.com/prometheus/common/log (from $GOPATH)

Can you help me to fix it?

👉 Maybe it is related with this PR on prometheus common that removes a deprecated log package.

Hi

I have the same Issue. Can you try to fix it?
Or can you provide me a working binary?

Thanks in advance
Manfred

Hey @m-gnaedig

I could not fix it with the command that I was using. To make it work I started to use this docker image that is stable https://hub.docker.com/r/sequra/logstash_exporter
It was an easy change for me, once I was already using docker in my project. If you can use docker, I suggest you to use it instead of manually installing the lib.

Here are the changes in my Dockerfile (if useful):

• the previous one

FROM golang:1.13

RUN go get -u github.com/sequra/logstash_exporter || exit 1 && \
    cd "${GOPATH}/src/github.com/sequra/logstash_exporter" && make || exit 1

CMD logstash_exporter --logstash.endpoint="http://...."

• fixed one ⭐ :

FROM sequra/logstash_exporter:7.3.0.0

CMD ["--logstash.endpoint=http://...."]

Hi Atanes

Thanks for your detailed message.
I will do some tests with the Docker container.

Have a nice day
