Support programmatically generating Justfile

[jmgilman]

Given the existence of the (unstable) --dump flag, it seems a lot of the work has been done to get a Justfile into JSON format. Is there a plan to finish the bridge both ways? (i.e. from JSON back to Justfile).

I have a use case where I need to programmatically generate a Justfile. I'm having to resort to some quirky templating engine code to get it to play nice. It would be great if I could generate a JSON data structure of the file and then convert it to a Justfile.

I'm not opposed to doing this, but it might be hard. The serialization code has some custom routines in it, so adding #[derive(serde::Deserialize)] wouldn't work without some work. The first step to doing this would just be trying to figure out how hard it would be.
