installation of zoekt-indexer fails

[jkjha]

I am following this documentation for setting up zoekt.
https://github.com/google/zoekt

But when I run this command:

go install github.com/google/zoekt/cmd/zoekt-index

it fails with error:

../../go/src/github.com/google/zoekt/cmd/zoekt-index/main.go:30:2: cannot find package "go.uber.org/automaxprocs/maxprocs" in any of: /usr/local/go/src/go.uber.org/automaxprocs/maxprocs (from $GOROOT) /home/username/go/src/go.uber.org/automaxprocs/maxprocs (from $GOPATH)

Can anyone please help if I am missing anything or its a regression.

I have tried on Mac and Ubuntu vms. But it fails with same error.

Which version of go are you using? Older versions of go require GO111MODULE=on environment variable. Try GO111MODULE=on go install github.com/google/zoekt/cmd/zoekt-index. If you want to stick to using the GOPATH, try doing go get ./... first to fetch deps.

I am using go version go1.15.2 darwin/amd64

So for me, GO111MODULE=on go get ..... installed into ~/go/bin. Note that it is get, not install. 🤷‍♂️
