🧪 Schema-to-C++ Header Generation

This project uses QuickType to generate C++ headers from the gnus-processing-schema.json file. This ensures your model classes stay in sync with the schema specification.

📦 Install QuickType

First, install QuickType globally using npm:

npm install -g quicktype

You must have Node.js installed. This also provides npm.

⚙️ Generate C++ Headers

To regenerate headers manually from the schema:

quicktype \
  --src-lang schema \
  --lang cpp \
  --top-level SGNSProcessing \
  --code-format with-getter-setter \
  --const-style west-const \
  --namespace sgns \
  --type-style pascal-case \
  --member-style underscore-case \
  --boost \
  --source-style multi-source \
  --include-location global-include \
  --out generated/SGNSProcMain.hpp \
  gnus-processing-schema.json

This command:

• Parses gnus-processing-schema.json
• Generates multiple C++ header files into the generated/ directory
• Applies naming conventions and Boost support
• Uses SGNSProcessing as the root class name in the sgns namespace

💡 Tips

• Only edit the gnus-processing-schema.json file — the headers are regenerated from it.
• A GitHub Action will automatically create a PR with regenerated headers on schema change.
• If you want to manually verify changes before pushing, inspect git diff after running the command.
