Mongo-go-driver error New client error ClientOptions in argument to mongo.NewClient

Question

i have try driver mongodb for a simple connection like on tutorial from this repos github mongo-go-driver i just write client like this :

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/mongodb/mongo-go-driver/mongo"
    "github.com/mongodb/mongo-go-driver/mongo/options"
)

var client *mongo.Client

func main() {
    fmt.Println("Starting the application...")
    client, err := mongo.NewClient(options.Client().ApplyURI("mongodb://localhost:27017"))

    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err.Error())
        return
    }

}

but show error :

cannot use "github.com/mongodb/mongo-go-driver/mongo/options".Client().ApplyURI("mongodb://localhost:27017") (type *"github.com/mongodb/mongo-go-driver/mongo/options".ClientOptions) as type *"go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver/mongo/options".ClientOptions in argument to mongo.NewClient

you should not use github version of mongo driver. It is just fork of repo located here go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver/mongo. So in first place go get go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver/mongo and then your improts you should change

github.com/mongodb/mongo-go-driver/*

to

go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver/*
