ng g class CLI command doesnt generate spec file

Question

So I want to generate an Injectable class with specific type (my-store.store.ts), but this:

ng g class my-store --type=store

Doesn't generate spec file and also doesnt add @Injectable decorator.

I am not using ng g service command, because docs does not provide a --type option for it.

I can add @Injectable by hand, but would like to get spec file automatically.

Use --spec flag so your command should be

ng g class my-store --type=store --spec=true

It works, but you explain how you came up with this? [docs](https://angular.io/cli/generate#class) does not provide `--spec` option for `ng g class`. there is only `--skipTests` which is by default false. Maybe its because my local CLI verson is 6? – bigInt Nov 04 '19 at 09:03

--spec option is listed on doc page but mark as depricated for angular 6+ you need to add schematics https://stackoverflow.com/a/51096430/5621827 – jitender Nov 04 '19 at 10:08

You can use the --spec flag, as shown in the anwer by @jitender. Or you can check your angular.json file, for the schematics property.
