How to install the go-mockgen binary ? #29

Open nathani-axis opened 2 years ago

nathani-axis commented 2 years ago

Hello,

I'm using go-mockgen in one of my projects, where I have it run in a bash script. I see in the README that the installation instructions are:

go get -u github.com/derision-test/go-mockgen/...

but as that's the old way of installing tools, go complains, and asks me to use go install instead.

So my bash script includes:

go install github.com/derision-test/go-mockgen/...
go generate ./...

When I run by bash script though, I get this output:

../../../../go/pkg/mod/github.com/derision-test/go-mockgen@v1.2.0/cmd/go-mockgen/args.go:11:2: missing go.sum entry for module providing package github.com/alecthomas/kingpin (imported by github.com/derision-test/go-mockgen/cmd/go-mockgen);

        go get github.com/derision-test/go-mockgen/testutil/gomega@v1.2.0

These missing entries are not actually missing entries, as I don't want them in my go project. go-mockgen is a tool I want to run on the project, but I don't necessarily want to add it as dependencies for my project.

Moreover, if I do run all the go get commands that are listed, whenever I will run go mod tidy, they will be removed, as they are not actually dependencies in my code.

Thanks

I believe that if you do a go install with an explicit version tag that it won't add it to your containing project. This StackOverflow solution indicates that could be a solution for you.

Could you try it and let me know if that works? I can update the installation instructions if you'd find them more clear.

I had the same issue and I fixed it by installing the tool via:

go install github.com/derision-test/go-mockgen/...@v1.3.1
