The simple case is really straightforward; I'm working with the flaskConnexion at the moment. Regardless of the edge cases, it seems to me that an awful lot of the boilerplate could be replaced with a very small handful of utility functions accepting lists (defaults for the language, from the configuration file, or, worst case, declared in the code). The trigger issue for me, is that I want to change some of the non-standard conventions used in the flaskConnexion template and I can't even rename a file without having to clone (bleh!) the Java code and template files and build an entirely new module. This is not optimal for many reasons I won't insult you by enumerating.

The challenge is that we support many different languages and targets, each with their own idiosyncrasies. It’s really impossible to have a standard structure. For example, the output filenames vary in structure depending on the contents of the data. That said, there’s many places to improve this, and maybe you have an idea that hasn’t been tried yet. So please share what you’re thinking in more detail. On Jan 29, 2017, at 6:10 AM, [email protected] wrote: Thanks, Tony. I have looked at that. From what I can gather from reading a bunch of the generators, the usual methodology involves lots of code and very little in the way of convention. For example, every file in the template has to be explicitly referenced in the Java file instead of iterating over a template directory. Also, the Java code has to specify the name of each output file to be generated rather than relying on a convention such as using filename.extension.mustache to generate filename.extension from the Mustache template file automatically. This could lead to the elimination of almost all the Java code in each generator as well as the ability to extend them easily which is virtually impossible now without modifying the Java code (e.g. to add a new template file). Has there been any work that you know of to reduce the amount of code by adopting a standard set of conventions for writing new generators? If it were done properly, the generators could be as simple as a set of template files in a standard layout, with a tiny bit of configuration to make it go. Very much a meta-swagger specification where very little configuration could drive the whole thing.

I want to develop a new generator. I'd like to have it be a stand-alone bundle like: /mySuperBundle README.md .gitignore /template file1.md.mustache file2.txt.mustache /generator mySuperBundle.java and so forth with tests etc. I'm an experienced programmer but have exactly zero experience setting up or integrating with a Java project (on purpose; same reason I know nothing about setting up Windows). This would seem a much better way of organizing new generators rather than having them have to be monolithically compiled into the main project. So...is this even possible? Anyone want to help me get this set up or, if it's been done before, a pointer to some clues?
