I need to convert a type section with object definitions that utilize custom
attribute pragmas into a type section with the same object definitions, but
with the pragmas stripped out and converted to setter procedures.
So, this:
dbSchema:
type
Person* = ref object
name {.required, maxLength: 10}: string
should become this:
type
Person* = ref object
name: string
proc `name=`*(self: var Person, value: string) {.maxLength: 10,
required.} =
name = value
proc name*(self: Person): string = name
It can be done with brute force, by breaking the original type section into
primitives and constructing the new section from them.
My question is, is there an easier way to do that? In other words, how would a
seasoned Nim developer approach such task?
