Error:request.go:598:31: not enough arguments in call to watch.NewStreamWatcher have (*versioned.Decoder) want (watch.Decoder, watch.Reporter)

Symptom:

When we build a go program, we hit such error:
k8s.io/client-go/rest/request.go:598:31: not enough arguments in call to watch.NewStreamWatcher have (*versioned.Decoder) want (watch.Decoder, watch.Reporter)
It appears there are updates on the request.go which have new requirements
See details of changes log  on apimachinary 

Solution:

   We need to avoid to use the latest master branch of the client-go. Instead we can use stable version of client-go. Fortunately go-modules addresses these problems
see github go-modules
So here are the steps to fix it

  • $ export GO111MODULE=on
  • In your project location, run :  go mod init     ---- create go.mod file
  • Go build  cmd/test.go    --- go mod will fetch related files which replace dep ensure
  • You will still see the error, that's ok , next step we fix it 
  • Edit go.mod and replace client-go with correct version
  • In this case  we use :   k8s.io/client-go v0.0.0-20190425172711-65184652c889
  • Go build cmd/test.go     ---error would be gone
