'Go Get' Private Repo from Bitbucket

Question

So basically, I have an Openshift Project that on Git push, downloads all libraries with 'Go get' and builds the project on-the-fly and so, I have some code I don't want people to see from my own library, and for it to compile properly, the code needs to be taken from github.com or another repo, so I created a private bitbucket.org repo, now, as a public repo it works fine, but when I try to 'Go Get' from my private repo, it gives me 'Forbidden 403'

How can I avoid this occurency? Thank you for reading and have a nice day!

Answer 1

go get uses git internally. The following one liners will make git and consequently go get clone your package via SSH.

Github:

git config --global url."[email protected]:".insteadOf "https://github.com/"

BitBucket:

git config --global url."[email protected]:".insteadOf "https://bitbucket.org/"

Answer 2

Adition to setting git config described by others, I had to set GOPRIVATE.

Step 1. git config --global url."git@bitbucket.<YOUR-COMPANY>".insteadOf "https://bitbucket.org/<YOUR-COMPANY>"

Step 2. export GOPRIVATE=bitbucket.org/<YOUR-COMPANY>

the GOPRIAVTE is documented here: https://golang.org/cmd/go/#hdr-Module_configuration_for_non_public_modules
