The Common Code Language generator implementation.
ccl is a code generation tool for converting a .ccl source file to certain programming languages. It is mostly used for defining models across servers and clients.
A basic example of the ccl grammar is as follow:
// NOTE: Support for attributes is not added as of yet
// This is a global attribute, applied to the whole generation process
#[CCLVersion("1.0.0")]
#[SerializationType("binary")]
// This is a comment
// models can also have attribute on them.
[SerializationType("binary")]
model UserInfo {
Id: int64;
Username: string;
Email: string;
ProfileImage: bytes;
CreatedAt: datetime;
UpdatedAt: datetime;
}
// models support multiple attributes
[SerializationType("binary")]
[SerializationType("json")]
model GetUsersResult {
Users: UserInfo[];
OtherUsers: UserInfo[];
}
NOTE: ccl is a very minimal language, currently we do not have support for complex types such as enums, maps, unions, etc.
go install github.com/ALiwoto/ccl@latestccl generate --source definitions.ccl --output path/to/output --language GoA list of all programming languages that are either supported or we plan to support in the future are shown here:
If you do not see your desired language in the list, please open an issue and we will consider adding it.
We will be glad to accept any contributions to the project!
