Generating mocks for protocols exposed from a Swift Package

[Velin92]

Hello!

I would like to generate mocks for a protocols that are not in my codebase, but are exposed from the codebase of a Swift Package.

How may I be able to generate those mocks for such protocols in my codebase?
Since I am not able to extend a protocol with AutoMockable or // sourcery: AutoMockable, and since also they do not belong directly in my codebase and not get scanned.

Hello no news on this so far?

You need to get at least definition scanned, you can add conformance in your own project code

How may I achieve this?
Since the it's an SPM the definition is not really in project, how can I set the .yml configuration to scan the SPM package code?

You'd need to use the spm cache

You'd need to use the spm cache

I tried to use the swiftpm cache in the config file like this:

sources:
  - ../../ElementX
  - ~/Library/Caches/org.swift.swiftpm/
templates:
  - AutoMockable.stencil
output:
  ../../ElementX/Sources/Mocks/Generated/GeneratedMocks.swift
args:
  automMockableTestableImports: []
  autoMockableImports: [Combine, Foundation, MatrixRustSDK, AnalyticsEvents]

However it's still trying to access my folder locally instead of accessing it from the user folde, in fact the script fails saying:
'/Users/mauroromito/Documents/Xworkspace/element-x-ios/Tools/Sourcery/~/Library/Caches/org.swift.swiftpm' does not exist or is not readable.

Of course since the sourcery script should also work across multiple collaborators and on the CI, I can't use multiple ../ to reach the user folder.

How would I achieve that with the .yml configuration?

@Velin92 you might want to consider using a build tool plugin like I've mentioned in here https://www.polpiella.dev/sourcery-swift-package-command-plugin
