go get github.com/HewlettPackard/lustre_exporter Does not work with go1.16.3.

Doing 'go get' on latest (go1.16.3) Fails

$ go get github.com/HewlettPackard/lustre_exporter
# github.com/HewlettPackard/lustre_exporter
pkg/mod/github.com/!hewlett!packard/lustre_exporter@v2.0.0+incompatible/lustre_exporter.go:153:28: undefined: prometheus.InstrumentHandler

Version

$ cat /usr/local/go/VERSION 
go1.16.3[root@centos79 go]# 

However, droping a version down and retrying it passes and works on (go1.15.11).

It most likely looks like the go1.16.3 breaks 'lustre_exporter'.

Hi,
this fork is active and working with go1.17.5:

Hi,
Thanks for the update. As I mentioned in by bug report it also did work with (go1.15.11) at the time. Only with the latest (at that time it was (go1.16.3)) it did not work. I have not tried out with go1.17.5 yet, I know it worked for 15.11 and as you mentioned it works for 17.5. It does not work for 16.3 only. Something that should be looked into?

Hi,
as I said, we are running a fork and that was tested successfully with 1.17.5.
It might also be running with lower/higher version of go...
If you strongly rely on a specific golang version, you have to check it out.
I would recommend building the project with the tested version.

Hi,

https://github.com/GSI-HPC/lustre_exporter

I failed to mentioned that I used this fork as base. What failed was (HewlettPackard/lustre_exporter). The project does not depend upon golang version. It was just that at that time the latest was 16.3 and HP/lustre_exporter (go get) failed to work. Thanks!

This project is not active since 2019..

Yes. However, this had more latest commits than HP's

[gabrieleiannetti]

Yes, the HP project has not been updated since 2019.
As I said, https://github.com/GSI-HPC/lustre_exporter is an active fork.
