"go build" breaks with go modules -- error messages says repo is trying to import itself...

[christop...@wework.com]

Hello, I'm migrating my codebase from dep to go modules. I'm able to run go get ./... without any problems but when I run go build I get the following error message:

can't load package: package github.com/WeConnect/alpha: unknown import path "github.com/WeConnect/alpha": cannot find module providing package github.com/WeConnect/alpha

The repository I'm working from is WeConnect/alpha which is weird because the error message seems like my repository is breaking because it can't import itself. Could someone tell me what's going on underneath the hood to give me this crazy error message? Thanks

Did you run go mod init github.com/WeConnect/alpha?
