Mocking the noble9 sdk about nobl9-go

hey @shubhindia :)

Some context:

sdk.Client was designed with API versioning in mind, so direct API calls like CreateProject are located under sub-structs holding the logic for specific endpoints.

So sdk.Client.Objects holds endpoints for objects related API set, while sdk.Client.Objects.V1 is used to access v1 versions of this API. Each returns a concrete struct without any means to change it's output, so enabling you to mock these would require some changes on our side, as you pointed out.

I need to think about it, I'll get back to you once I have an idea.

Totally understandable :) I've already got a POC set up, I'll also add some docs which explain how to best/most easily mock the Client.

Thanks @nieomylnieja.

Currently we are just doing CRUD over Projects so its manageable but we can't just keep on writing WrapperFunctions for calling ActualClientFunctions as API grows. I mean we can but it's not really feasible.

hey @shubhindia, happy to announce that v0.80.0 ships with an adjusted sdk.Client API which allows mocking the entire client.

I've also included an example/documentation on how to achieve that: https://github.com/nobl9/nobl9-go/tree/main/docs/mock_example.

I hope this meets your needs :) Let me know If you have any more questions on that and If it solved your issue!
