How to add dependency on godep.json?

I find it difficult to add a dependency to a file Godeps.json

. I seem to have messed up GOPATH

. I've tried various suggestions for warnings but none of them worked for me. My GOPATH /Users/sarath/project

. which go

- /usr/local/bin/go

. If I try to do it godep save ./...

, it gives me the following warning:

godep: [WARNING]: godep should only be used inside a valid go package directory and
godep: [WARNING]: may not function correctly. You are probably outside of your $GOPATH.
godep: [WARNING]:   Current Directory: /Users/sarath/project
godep: [WARNING]:   $GOPATH: /Users/sarath/project
godep: Unable to find SrcRoot for package .

I have it pkg

inside /Users/sarath/project

.

It definitely won't work. GOPATH is not just a project path; this is the root of the directory that contains directories bin

, pkg

and src

; directory src

contains directories with package names for projects. Therefore you have to run godep

from your project directory which (given your current GOPATH) should be /Users/sarath/project/src/<repopath>

- eg. /Users/sarath/project/src/github.com/sarath/myproject
