I'd rather write programs to write programs than write programs.

Make sure you're running node 12 or greater. The test suite will fail on older versions of node.
If you add a new generator, make sure to update the list of supported languages in cli.js or else it won't be accessible from the command line. Further, you'll want to update test.js and index.js for your new generator to make it part of the testing.
If you want to add new functionality, start with a test.
- Create a file containing the curl command in
fixtures/curl_commands
with a descriptive filename likepost_with_headers.txt
- Create a file containing the output in
fixtures/python_output/
with a matching filename (but different extension) likepost_with_headers.py
- Run tests with
npm test
. - If your filenames match correctly, you should see one failing test. Fix it by modifying the parser in
util.js
or the generators ingenerators/
The parser generates a generic data structure consumed by code generator functions.
You can run a specific test with this command:
node test.js --test=test_name
where "test_name" is a file (without extension) in fixtures/curl_commands
You can run a specific test with this command:
node test.js --language=R
I recommend setting this up with a debugger so you can see exactly what the parser is passing to the generator. Here's my Intellij run configuration for a single test:
Before submitting a PR, please check that your JS code conforms to the code style enforced by standardjs. Use the following to fix your code if it doesn't:
$ standard --fix my_file.js
If you get stuck, please reach out via email. I am always willing to hop on a google hangout and pair program.
