jtos

jtos is a command-line application for processing json input files and generating the struct code for the chosen language. Currently, only Go is supported as a language generator.

Prerequisites

• Go (version 1.21 or newer)

Installation

Before you can use jtos, you need to install it. The currently only installation possible is through go install:

go install github.com/EdsonHTJ/jtos/cmd/jtos@latest

Usage

Basic Usage

jtos [path/to/input/file]

With the basic usage, the input file is taken from the argument, and the output file defaults to a directory and file named after the input filename without its extension. The generator defaults to "go".

Advanced Usage

jtos --input="path/to/input/file" --out="path/to/output/file" --gen="generator_type"

• -g, --gen string: The generator type to use. (default "go")
• -h, --help: Help for jtos.
• -o, --out string: Path to the output directory. (default "./")
• -p, --package string: Name of the output package.
• -s, --struct string: Name of the output structure.

For example, for an input file at /etc/lib/test.txt, the default output will be test/test.go.

Examples

jtos example.json
# Output will be in example/example.go

jtos --input=sample.json --out=output/path --package=samplePkg --struct=SampleStruct
# Adjusted output, package name, and struct name.
