MOCKGEN(1) User Commands MOCKGEN(1)

NAME

mockgen - generate source for mock class of a Go source

DESCRIPTION

The `mockgen` command is used to generate source code for a mock class given a Go source file containing interfaces to be mocked.
mockgen has two modes of operation: source and reflect.
Source mode generates mock interfaces from a source file. It is enabled by using the -source flag. Other flags that may be useful in this mode are -imports and -aux_files. Example:
mockgen -source=foo.go [other options]
Reflect mode generates mock interfaces by building a program that uses reflection to understand interfaces. It is enabled by passing two non-flag arguments: an import path, and a comma-separated list of symbols. Example:
mockgen database/sql/driver Conn,Driver
-aux_files="": (source mode) Comma-separated pkg=path pairs of auxiliary Go source files.
-debug_parser=false: Print out parser results only.
-destination="": Output file; defaults to stdout.
-exec_only="": (reflect mode) If set, execute this reflection program.
-imports="": (source mode) Comma-separated name=path pairs of explicit imports to use.
-package="": Package of the generated code; defaults to the package of the input with a 'mock_' prefix.
-prog_only=false: (reflect mode) Only generate the reflection program; write it to stdout.
-self_package="": If set, the package this mock will be part of.
-source="": (source mode) Input Go source file; enables source mode.
