Instruction to use GEOS

[AlexandreBorowczyk]

Hi, I'm relatively new to Golang and I'm having issues accessing the GOES packages. I'm using VScode on Ubuntu 22.04 and I'm unable to import geos.

I've followed the instruction here while choosing the latest geos

I've install simplefeature with go get github.com/peterstace/simplefeatures/geos go get github.com/peterstace/simplefeatures/geom

then go mod tidy

Yet it seems like I still can't import it.

Any help would be helpful!

Yet it seems like I still can't import it.

A few questions:

• What happens when you try to import it?
• Are you getting a compile error?
• Are you able to show the line in go.mod that shows the simplefeatures import?

[AlexandreBorowczyk]

The line in the go.mod is the following: github.com/peterstace/simplefeatures v0.47.1

When I try to import it, as soon as I save the file vscode removed the import. Maybe it's a vscode issue?

[AlexandreBorowczyk]

So I bypassed vscode and the code build and executes So it seem it's a vscode issue

I don't use vscode and don't know much about how it works so I can't really offer any suggestions. Sorry!

If this can help anyone, I've manage to fixed the issue by building the code without vscode then go mod tidy this added what was required to the mod.sum and vscode start recognizing the package afterward
