vecty VS counterfeiter

Vecty

It depends on how specifically you don't want to write HTML/CSS/JS and how broad your definition of "frontend" is. There are a handful of all-go frontend frameworks such as Vecty and Vugu of varying maturity and completeness. Then there's other libraries that more or less have you write HTML tags in go, such as go-app.

It draws on Go's syscall/js library as inspiration, which is pretty powerful (I wrote a pretty popular React-like framework using it a while back.)

A note on wasm: I'm building a hobby project with it right now and have tried different frameworks, I tried vecty which is nice to compile but full of bugs and unexpected behavior. I'm now on vugu which works better but is still harder to work with than a JS framework.

https://github.com/hexops/vecty/ is a framework for developing dynamic web frontends in Go. It's not production-ready, and will likely get some rewrites once generics drop, but it's pretty neat (I'm a contributor).

There's Vecty, though it's likely to get a bit of a redesign once generics drops.

How does it compare to https://github.com/hexops/vecty or https://github.com/bep/gr ?

Reminds me of Vecty from the GopherJS project: https://github.com/hexops/vecty .

then just replace whole function, don't generate manually the mock '__') or it would get out of hand fast, you can just use codegen that static typed like https://github.com/maxbrunsfeld/counterfeiter

Yes, that's a good way to do that; there are a lot of packages that allow you to mock and spy the calls if you're looking for one that generates the code for you I can recommend counterfeiter, I also have a short blog that covers it.

I prefer https://github.com/maxbrunsfeld/counterfeiter

counterfeiter is another tool, it creates mocks, stubs and spies; here is a short blog I wrote covering it.

for dependency injection I suggest you use https://github.com/maxbrunsfeld/counterfeiter, but if you using really fast database (that can spawn fast using docker and has fast trx/sec) you can use it directly without dependency injection with https://github.com/ory/dockertest

Agree with u/mmknightx there is a tool that assist in creating fake or mock classes for your interfaces https://github.com/maxbrunsfeld/counterfeiter

Another alternative to use would be counterfeiter, it generates a type from your interface that could be used as a mock, stub or spy. I wrote a short post covering that tool if you're interested.
