Influxdb: go module for v2 needs to end in "v2".

[mildebrandt]

When attempting to go get the influxdb v2 code, I get the following error:

$ go get github.com/influxdata/[email protected]
go: finding github.com/influxdata/influxdb v2.0.0-beta.3
go: finding github.com v2.0.0-beta.3
go: finding github.com/influxdata v2.0.0-beta.3
go: finding github.com/influxdata/influxdb v2.0.0-beta.3
go get github.com/influxdata/[email protected]: github.com/influxdata/[email protected]: invalid version: module contains a go.mod file, so major version must be compatible: should be v0 or v1, not v2

This is because the go.mod file is missing a v2 at the end of the module name. It should be:

module github.com/mildebrandt/influxdb/v2

See for additional information: https://golang.org/cmd/go/#hdr-Module_compatibility_and_semantic_versioning

@mildebrandt thanks for opening this. I'll find someone to help fix.

We have had some internal discussion about this but haven't yet taken any action.

Right now, in our internal dependencies on influxdb we either go get github.com/influxdata/influxdb@master or at a specific SHA.

Are we at the point where we need to fix this now @jsternberg?

I think it would be good to fix it. We just need to decide on a time and do an announcement because it will cause a merge conflict and require an update for every PR.

I'm having the same issue.

@jsternberg @rickspencer3 any update on the PR to fix this?

[jsternberg]

This should be good now. Please tell me if you have any problems with it.
