Usage

To generate code using this tool, you need to provide a schema file, specify the table, and include at least one template file. Here is the basic usage:

jempe_code_generator -schema=schema.json -table=users templates/user.tmpl

Example

jempe_code_generator -schema=schema.json -table=users templates/user.tmpl

Options

• -output: Path of the output file. If not provided, the generated code will be printed to the standard output.
• -schema: Path of the schema file. This file should contain the database schema.
• -table: Name of the table for which you want to generate code.
• -overwrite: If set to true, existing files will be overwritten.
• -template_files: List of template files to be used for code generation.

Example with Output File

jempe_code_generator -schema=schema.json -table=users -output=generated_code.go templates/user.tmpl

This command will generate the code based on the provided schema and template files and save it to generated_code.go.

Notes

• Ensure the schema file exists and is correctly formatted.
• Provide at least one template file to generate the code.
• If the output file already exists and you don't use the -overwrite flag, the tool will not overwrite the existing file.
