I'm making a package to make API calls to a service.
I have a test package that I use just to test the API calls and test the functions of the main package which I just include
the other package into.
In my main package that I'm working on I have
ioutil.ReadFile(filepath.Abs("Filename.pub"))
Which is ok, but when I call it from my test package e.g.
/Users/####/gocode/src/github.com/testfolder go run main.go
it tells me
panic: open /Users/####/gocode/src/github.com/testfolder/public.pub: no such file or directory
The problem is, is it is looking for public.pub
inside of testfolder
instead of github.com/apipackage/
which is where it is.
Just to clarify this mess of words:
The API Package has a function that reads from the same directory
But because I'm including the API package and Testfolder is the CWD when I go run main.go
it is instead trying to get it from the testfolder
instead even though the main.go doesn't have the function and is just including it.
