Versatile Go code generator.
Generis is a lightweight code preprocessor adding the following features to the Go language :
- Generics.
- Free-form macros.
- Conditional compilation.
- HTML templating.
- Allman style conversion.

}Constants and generic code can be defined with the following syntax :
#define old code
#as new code
#define old code
#as
new
code
#end
#define
old
code
#as new code
#define
old
code
#as
new
code
#endThe #define directive can contain one or several parameters :
{{variable name}} : hierarchical code (with properly matching brackets and parentheses)
{{variable name#}} : statement code (hierarchical code without semicolon)
{{variable name$}} : plain code
{{variable name:boolean expression}} : conditional hierarchical code
{{variable name#:boolean expression}} : conditional statement code
{{variable name$:boolean expression}} : conditional plain codeThey can have a boolean expression to require they match specific conditions :
HasText text
HasPrefix prefix
HasSuffix suffix
HasIdentifier text
false
true
!expression
expression && expression
expression || expression
( expression )The #define directive must not start or end with a parameter.
The #as directive can use the value of the #define parameters :
{{variable name}}
{{variable name:filter function}}
{{variable name:filter function:filter function:...}}Their value can be changed through one or several filter functions :
LowerCase
UpperCase
MinorCase
MajorCase
SnakeCase
PascalCase
CamelCase
RemoveComments
RemoveBlanks
PackStrings
PackIdentifiers
ReplacePrefix old_prefix new_prefix
ReplaceSuffix old_suffix new_suffix
ReplaceText old_text new_text
ReplaceIdentifier old_identifier new_identifier
AddPrefix prefix
AddSuffix suffix
RemovePrefix prefix
RemoveSuffix suffix
RemoveText text
RemoveIdentifier identifierConditional code can be defined with the following syntax :
#if boolean expression
#if boolean expression
...
#else
...
#end
#else
#if boolean expression
...
#else
...
#end
#endThe boolean expression can use the following operators :
false
true
!expression
expression && expression
expression || expression
( expression )Templated HTML code can be sent to a stream writer using the following syntax :
#write writer expression
<% code %>
<%@ natural expression %>
<%# integer expression %>
<%& real expression %>
<%~ text expression %>
<%= escaped text expression %>
<%! removed content %>
<%% ignored tags %%>
#end- There is no operator precedence in boolean expressions.
- The
--joinoption requires to end the statements with a semicolon. - The
#writerdirective is only available for the Go language.
Install the DMD 2 compiler (using the MinGW setup option on Windows).
Build the executable with the following command line :
dmd -m64 generis.dgeneris [options]
--prefix # : set the command prefix
--parse INPUT_FOLDER/ : parse the definitions of the Generis files in the input folder
--process INPUT_FOLDER/ OUTPUT_FOLDER/ : reads the Generis files in the input folder and writes the processed files in the output folder
--trim : trim the HTML templates
--join : join the split statements
--create : create the output folders if needed
--watch : watch the Generis files for modifications
--pause 500 : time to wait before checking the Generis files again
--tabulation 4 : set the tabulation space count
--extension .go : generate files with this extension
generis --process GS/ GO/Reads the Generis files in the GS/ folder and writes Go files in the GO/ folder.
generis --process GS/ GO/ --createReads the Generis files in the GS/ folder and writes Go files in the GO/ folder,
creating the output folders if needed.
generis --process GS/ GO/ --create --watchReads the Generis files in the GS/ folder and writes Go files in the GO/ folder,
creating the output folders if needed and watching the Generis files for modifications.
generis --process GS/ GO/ --trim --join --create --watchReads the Generis files in the GS/ folder and writes Go files in the GO/ folder,
trimming the HTML templates, joining the split statements, creating the output folders if needed
and watching the Generis files for modifications.
