hi, thank you for reporting!
github.com/.../pkg/buffer: no Go files in means that this package wasn't loaded: most often this happens when dependencies weren't installed. Is it dependency?

yes, it's dependency, and I probably know the reason. thx for your reply.

[DonRenando]

in my case (on jenkins), it solved my problem:
add in .golangci.yml

run:
  modules-download-mode: vendor  

[andig]

Feel I've just hit the same blocker. My program uses modules, so the vendorsolution would not apply.

I'm first running go generate to get around any compile errors, then run linter. The build works locally but fails on travis:

[adasari]

may i know fix/workaround to resolve the issue ?

[jirfag]

you need just to install all dependencies

[tsauvajon]

Sorry to comment on a closed issue but how to make golangci-lint work with Go Modules?

I had to manually install all the dependencies (go get -u github.com/.../...), while they were already there with Modules (go get) and GO111MODULE was set to on.

Is there anything I'm missing here?

---

A possible solution, I guess, would be to disable Go Modules, go get, enable modules again, run golangci-lint. I'd like to avoid that path if there is a better solution though

[jiacai2050]

@tsauvajon Have you tried this?

run:
  modules-download-mode: vendor
