can't load package: package github.com/msprev/fzf-bibtex #12

Hi! I installed fzf, bibtool and go. However, the follow instructions go get github.com/msprev/fzf-bibtex gave me this error

can't load package: package github.com/msprev/fzf-bibtex: no Go files in /home/chansen/go/src/github.com/msprev/fzf-bibtex

I added the first funtion to vimrc and pressed leader c, which brings up an empty fzf. When pressing enter with nothing selected in fzf-bibtex the following is pasted in my document /bin/bash: bibtex-cite: command not found. However, the go-commands from the installation worked fine.

EDIT: I'm on arch btw

Can you try running go get github.com/msprev/fzf-bibtex/cmd/bibtex-ls first, and then run go install on all the commands, as per the installation instructions?

That worked. I no longer get the error in vim and fzf-bibtex start as expected. However, there is still no content in fzf when it starts. I don't know how to get more information or troubleshoot unfortunately :/

Do you want to test it by running it on your bibliography file on the command line as described in the readme?

To use it in vim, you need to make sure these environment variables are set:

let $FZF_BIBTEX_CACHEDIR = 'PATH-TO-CACHE-DIR'
let $FZF_BIBTEX_SOURCES = 'PATH-TO-BIBTEX-FILE'

I'm closing the issue as I haven't heard anything further, and I'm assuming that you've got it working inside vim. Reopen the issue if this is not the case.
