CLI for JSON code generation for Rust

Note: The main intended interface for this code generation is a procedural macro. See its docs for details.

Installation

```sh cargo install jsontypegencli

installed binary is called json_typegen

```

Due to the fact that this tool uses rustfmt to make code look reasonable, compilation takes a while. If you are impatient, you can use the web interface in the meantime.

Usage

To generate the type Point in point.rs from a local sample, run:

json_typegen json_samples/point.json -o src/point.rs -n Point

Or for an online sample, run:

json_typegen 'http://vestera.as/json_typegen/examples/point.json' -o src/point.rs -n Point

The generated code assumes the availability of serde and serde_derive, so make sure your Cargo.toml contains something like:

```toml [dependencies] serde = "0.9" serde_derive = "0.9"

Not required, but you probably also want:

serde_json = "0.9" ```

And your crate root (i.e. main.rs) should contain at least:

```rust extern crate serde;

[macro_use]

extern crate serdederive; // Again, not required, but you probably also want: extern crate serdejson; ```
