I am unable to build/deploy a digital ocean function that relies on nonstandard libraries (some third party, others local). I have three projects: an API, the DO functions, and a common library used by both. I tried the solution described in this post but it didn't fix the issue.

$ doctl serverless deploy functions

results in

Deploying '/home/swpulitzer/temp/repo/functions/functions' to namespace 'fn-51b50945-486a-4071-9820-13e076fd4ee8' on host 'https://faas-nyc1-2ef2e6cc.doserverless.co' Submitted function 'bots/whiteface' for remote building and deployment in runtime go:default (id: 1a040a6618174c38840a6618177c38e5) Transcript of remote build session for action 'bots/whiteface': Output of failed build in %s /tmp/slices/builds/fn-51b50945-486a-4071-9820-13e076fd4ee8/bots_whiteface/2025-11-24T20-24-13.602Z/packages/bots/whiteface initializing modules go: creating new go.mod: module exec go: to add module requirements and sums: go mod tidy building scrape.go:4:2: package api/common is not in GOROOT (/usr/local/go/src/api/common) scrape.go:5:2: package api/handlers is not in GOROOT (/usr/local/go/src/api/handlers) scrape.go:6:2: package api/logger is not in GOROOT (/usr/local/go/src/api/logger) scrape.go:8:2: package common/models is not in GOROOT (/usr/local/go/src/common/models) scrape.go:11:2: package functions/lib is not in GOROOT (/usr/local/go/src/functions/lib) scrape.go:18:2: no required module provides package github.com/PuerkitoBio/goquery; to add it: go get github.com/PuerkitoBio/goquery scrape.go:19:2: no required module provides package github.com/labstack/gommon/log; to add it: go get github.com/labstack/gommon/log

My project structure is below. Is it possible to tell doctl where these packages are so it can link to them in the build?

repo/ <- workspace go.work go.work.sum api/ <-- API module common/ <-- common module used by both API and functions functions/ <-- Digital Ocean functions go.mod go.sum lib/ objects.go utilities.bo functions/ project.yml packages/ bots/ whiteface/ main.go scrape.go
