kitex_gen is not generated due to the -use option

[rushwing]

Describe the bug

Generate code with "-use" flag failed, error message: "kitex_gen is not generated due to the -use option"

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a local module _samplemodule which may contains several services inside of it.
2. cd into /cmd/service_a/ folder, exec command: "kitex -v -module sample_module -service service_a ../../kitex_gen/service_a ../../idl/service_a.thrift"
3. Observe whether the related codes and folders are generated.
4. kitex_gen folder was not generated, seen error message.

Expected behavior

Expected the project to be generated as the following layout:

. ├── client // contain the client code ├── cmd // contain the code of several services │ ├── api // contain service apis code │ ├── service_a │ │ ├── script // generated by kitex │ │ │ └── bootstrap.sh // bootstrap.sh generated by kitex │ │ ├── service // contain service code │ │ ├── build.sh // build.sh generated by kitex │ │ ├── go.mod // go.mod generated by kitex │ │ ├── handler.go // handler.go generated by kitex │ │ └── main.go // main.go generated by kitex │ └── service_b ├── kitex_gen // -use flag to specify the import path │ ├── service_a // generated by kitex │ └── service_b // generated by kitex ├── idl // project idls for different services ├── pkg // dependencies ├── go.mod // generated by kitex └── go.sum // generated by kitex

kitex_gen is not generated due to the -use option

this is not error msg, just tell you kitex_gen is not generated, because you use -use option

[rushwing]

kitex_gen is not generated due to the -use option

this is not error msg, just tell you kitex_gen is not generated, because you use -use option

https://github.com/cloudwego/kitex-examples/issues/30 I referred to this thread which said that we could use "-use" parameter to specify the import path.

So If I want to use "-use" parameter, I need to:

1. generate kitex_gen folder first
2. copy the kitex_gen folder to the place I want
3. next time I could generate codes without generate kitex_gen folder again.

Correct me if I had something wrong.

[YangruiEmma]

could you tell me what is your requirement? -use just for the scenario that you don't want to generate kitex_gen in your project, you can specify another repository

[rushwing]

There would be more than one service in my project, but all of them included in one module. I want to generate the kitex_gen folder in the root folder of the project, rather than in each service folder. Just like the easynote demo project.

If I use default command to generate: kitex -module xxxx -service xxxx xxx.idl The kitex_gen folder would be generated under the service folder, rather than in the root folder of the project.

[YangruiEmma]

if you exec kitex tool in your root folder, then all service code will be generated together, and which subpackage depends on your idl definition namespace go
