I am getting an issue running a function from a non-main package in main.go

// main.go
package main

import test "./tests"

func main() {
    test.Test("hello world")
}


// (relative to main.go) ./tests/test.go
package test

import "fmt"

func Test(str string) {
    fmt.Println(str)
}

Output: build command-line-arguments: cannot find module for path _/c_/Users/Mike/Desktop/random/tests

If you are using Go 1.16+ use Go modules:

  1. Exec go mod init projectname
  2. Replace import test "./tests" by import test "projectname/tests"
