Works with every other project I have, just not exactly this one. The project compiles and tests fine, there's nothing unusual about it. Same versions of Mockery and Testify, too.

Same problem here. Reverting to 47a058062601e235731714f89d7ec95c1ec47a5e worked for me.

Same problem here.

For those trying to cope with the new version, I found that you need to go install any dependent package for the mock's target package. In the OP's example, you would have to go install github.com/stretchr/testify/assert first.

It looks like b0804d5de476de92a560fa451fa56167806ccdb6 broke it. If I checkout the commit before that, it works fine but anything including that commit breaks.

[atombender]

It does look like @joshk0 is right, and that mockery doesn't understand vendor. I think he means go get, not go install, though.

[jameshartig]

The error is coming from https://github.com/vektra/mockery/blob/master/mockery/parse.go#L67. And that comment above that block makes me think that it requires pkg files for the package for it to work which is why go install works.

[atombender]

Ah yes, I remember now — go/types apparently only works with installed packages. The Atom package go-plus had this same issue (syntax linting would only work if you installed your project, which is of course nonsensical).

[jameshartig]

Looks like golang/go#11415 recommends to use golang.org/x/tools/go/loader instead of go/types.

[etamponi]

The same issue holds for me, I had to revert to 47a0580 as suggested in #81 (comment)

Workaround:

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/vektra/mockery/
git checkout 47a058062601e235731714f89d7ec95c1ec47a5e
go get -u github.com/vektra/errors
go install -a github.com/vektra/mockery/.../

Thanks @deadok22
