`internaldocument.NewDocumentMarshaler` not declared by package

[jabalsad]

Hi,

I generated Go types from smithy models. One member shape uses the Document type. The generated code doesn't seem to compile:

In file: codegen/document/document.go:

func NewLazyDocument(v interface{}) Interface {
	return internaldocument.NewDocumentMarshaler(v)
}

I get an error: NewDocumentMarshaler not declared by package document

Any ideas?

The first thing that comes to mind is whether you are missing protocol generator implementation? For example are you trying to use the code generator for just generating the Go types, but not implementing any specific protocol serde?

[jabalsad]

Yes, that might be it. I am just trying to generate the Go types from the smithy spec.

I have the same problem after upgrading to smithy-go@main. @skmcgrail do you mean one has to go to specific steps to implement some protocol serde?

[jabalsad]

@skmcgrail can you perhaps elaborate what it is we need to do here? thanks.

I have understood a bit more by reverse engineering aws-sdk-go-v2, but I haven't got it working yet. Hopefully I'll reach a working solution, and can then share my findings.

@skmcgrail I'm not exactly sure how to work around this issue. The only protocol we are declaring is:

@restJson1
service MyService { ... }

And yes - I'm simply trying to generate the Go types, which cannot compile due to the error.

Update: we're also trying to use the go client, which contains no serializing/deserializing logic. Any advice here would be useful, thanks.

This most likely is related to #354 with smithy-go's lack of protocols.
