Relative path as parameter values for -source and -destination #174

Open Abhishekkarunakaran opened 2 months ago

Currently we have to pass the whole path of the files as values to the flags -source and -destination. eg: mockgen -source=D:\go_project\library_management\src\core\ports\repository.go -destination=D:\go_project\library_management\src\core\mocks\respository_mock.go (In windows)

To reduce this redundancy in type, we can use the relative path. Assuming mockgen is used from the targeted codebase.

Is there any particular reason to make it as what it is now?

Hey @Abhishekkarunakaran, I see examples of relative paths being passed to the --source and --destination options for the mockgen command in the //go:generate comments of multiple files in the repository.

In my understanding, the relative path is only available in reflect mode, not in source mode.
