What is the best way to import local package?

Usually i import local packages by

import "github.com/crsov/myproj/mypkg"

but when i am editing them i need to go get -u "github.com/crsov/myproj/mypkg" every save.

That's the best way to import local package? I have found many answers to this question but most of them are for older golang versions.

If you have a local package that is very new and has not stabilized, you can do this instead:

go mod init mypkg

and import like this:

import "mypkg"

then you don't have to worry about pulling from the internet, it will just pull from the local directory. Then once your package stabilizes, you can rename so that it can be properly published for others to use.
