unable to go to definition. Fails with module lookup disabled by GOPROXY=off

[rickydjohn]

What did you do? (required: The issue will be closed when not provided)

gd is supposed to take me to a function/method definition. instead, it failed with a module load error. While inspecting messages on vim, I found the below message.

vim-go: initializing gopls
vim-go: initialized gopls
vim-go: Finished loading packages.
vim-go: Finished loading packages.
vim-go: [definition] FAIL
vim-go: err: exit status 1: stderr: go: bitbucket.org/xxxx/[email protected]: module lookup disabled by GOPROXY=off
vim-go: : packages.Load error

What did you expect to happen?

I was hoping to be taken to the function/method

What happened instead?

the lookup failed with an error.

You're effectively running into the problem that's described in golang/go#32337, and there's not much (nothing?) that vim-go can really do about it.

I suspect that if you download your dependencies before setting GOPROXY=off or if you use some of the suggestions in golang/go#32337, then you'll be fine.

Are you sure you want GOPROXY=off and that you don't want GOPROXY=direct instead?
