Fatal error, mongodb initialization failed: open /home/user/work/pkg/mod/github.com/zebresel-com/[email protected]+incompatible/locals.json: no such file or directory"

[piyushgupte]

I have built an executable of my go application which uses zebresel-com/mongodm and am trying to deploy it in docker container, but I am getting the following error.It is working great on my linux box but it fails when I try to deploy it inside docker.
" initialization failed: open /home/myuser/work/pkg/mod/github.com/zebresel-com/[email protected]+incompatible/locals.json: no such file or directory"
Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a go executable of work repo which is using zebresel-com/mongodm
2. Copy the executable in docker env via Docker copy command through Dockerfile

Nearly one year later, I've got this problem too, digging it up I found out what it is

Once you generated the binary file, it still looks for this locals.json file to start the connection; The simple solution was to embed it as a string in my connection file, something like this:

var localMapStr = `
{
  "en-US": {
    "validation.field_required": "Field '%s' is required.",
    "validation.field_invalid": "Field '%s' has an invalid value.",
    "validation.field_invalid_id": "Field '%s' contains an invalid object id value.",
    "validation.field_minlen": "Field '%s' must be at least %v characters long.",
    "validation.field_maxlen": "Field '%s' can be maximum %v characters long.",
    "validation.entry_exists": "%s already exists for value '%v'.",
    "validation.field_not_exclusive": "Only one of both fields can be set: '%s'' or '%s'.",
    "validation.field_required_exclusive": "Field '%s' or '%s' required."
  }
}
`
var localMap map[string]map[string]string
json.Unmarshal([]byte(localMapStr), &localMap)
dbConfig := &mongodm.Config{
	DatabaseHosts: []string{os.Getenv("MONGODB_HOST")},
	DatabaseName: os.Getenv("MONGODB_DATABASE"),
	Locals:       localMap["en-US"],
}

Not really the best solution out there, but this package seems a little out of date anyway
