Thanks for your help on that issue.

Hi Daniel,

I don't use RHEL and have been unable to reproduce your issue but looking at your details I would guess that your GOPATH is incorrect.

To build using Golang 1.10 using docker you can use something like:

• checkout the repo
• cd to the root of the repo
• run a command similar to the following

docker run --rm -ti -v $PWD:/go/src/github.com/pwillie/prometheus-es-adapter -w /go/src/github.com/pwillie/prometheus-es-adapter golang:1.10-stretch make build

This will mount the current directory into the docker container within the GOPATH. The built binary will be available at ./bin/

Hi Peter,

Thanks for those elements, I will look into fixing the GOPATH problem.
