Hi,
How do we indicate which version of the go driver to download

the command provided in the documentation is downloading the latest driver (1.5.1):

go get go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver/mongo

How can I download an earlier version ?

thanks

Hi @Dror_Mikdash1, and welcome to the forums!

If you have Golang version 1.11+, you can use go mod. For example within your project directory you could perform:

go mod init 
go get -d -v go.mongodb.org/mongo-driver@v1.5.0
go build

The first command above will create a new go.mod file in the project that act as a dependency manifest.

Regards,
Wan.
