Yocto Fails to Cross-Compile GoLang Wails Application

I am using Yocto Kirkstone to build a system for an ARMv7 custom embedded Linux board. I have go-runtime version 1.20 in my Yocto meta layers.

I am trying to build a simple example GoLang 'wails' (https://github.com/wailsapp/wails) application that I am able to build on my Mac for my target. This requires the wails 'cli' to be installed to build the application. I'm not sure how to cross-compile this app with Yocto. How can I accomplish this? Thanks.

This command fails in do_compile():

wails build .

The error I am getting is shown here:

I solved it with the following recipe.

DESCRIPTION = "Wails Example App"
LICENSE = "CLOSED"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM=""

LICENSE = "CLOSED"

SRC_URI = "git://[email protected]/abc/go-wails-demo.git;branch=master;protocol=ssh"
SRCREV = "eaa61c30bff997c811da1d176c7273cea4f6b7d8"

GO_IMPORT = "import"
GO_LINKSHARED = ""
PTEST_ENABLED="0"
CGO_ENABLED = "1"

DEPENDS = "nodejs-native"
DEPENDS += "gtk+3 webkitgtk"

INSANE_SKIP:${PN} += "already-stripped"

inherit go goarch pkgconfig

do_compile() {

    # Allow cloning of properietary repositories
    git config --global --add url."[email protected]:".insteadOf "https://github.com/"
    ${GO} env -w GOPRIVATE="github.com/abc"

    cd ${WORKDIR}/go-wails-demo-1.0.0/src/import
    export TMPDIR="${GOTMPDIR}"

    # Pass the needed cflags/ldflags so that cgo
    # can find the needed headers files and libraries
    export QEMU_LD_PREFIX="${STAGING_DIR_TARGET}"
    export GOARCH=${TARGET_GOARCH}
    export CGO_ENABLED="1"
    export CGO_CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} --sysroot=${STAGING_DIR_TARGET}"
    export CGO_LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} --sysroot=${STAGING_DIR_TARGET}"
    export GO111MODULE="on"
    export GOPATH="${WORKDIR}/build"
    export GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=1

    ${GO} install github.com/wailsapp/wails/v2/cmd/wails@latest

    /usr/bin/sync
    sleep 0.5

    ${WORKDIR}/build/bin/linux_arm/wails build .

}

do_install() {

    cd ${WORKDIR}/go-wails-demo-1.0.0/src/import/build/bin

    mkdir -p ${D}${bindir}
    install -m 0755 ./react-wails-demo ${D}${bindir}

    cd ${OLDPWD}

}
