redis.Scan(non-struct *interface {})

Hi,

I'm quite positive this is a GO question, but since I'm having it using this lib I decided to post it here.

I'm getting this error redis.Scan(non-struct *interface {}) when trying to populate a struct via scan method.

This is where I'm providing the struct:

type Secret struct {
	Code  string `redis:"secret"`
	Nonce string `redis:"nonce"`
}

var secret Secret

data, err := sh.database.SelectAll(fmt.Sprintf("_:secret:%s", id), secret)

This is where I'm trying to populate it via scan method:

func (c *redisClient) SelectAll(key string, output interface{}) (interface{}, error) {
	cmd := c.client.HGetAll(ctx, key)
	if err := cmd.Err(); err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}

	err := cmd.Scan(&output)
	if err != nil {
		return nil, err
	}

	return output, nil
}

What am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance!
