webrpc-gen Typescript templates

This repo contains the templates used by the webrpc-gen cli to code-generate webrpc Typescript server and client code.

This generator, from a webrpc schema/design file will code-generate:

1. Client -- an isomorphic/universal Typescript client to speak to a webrpc server using the provided schema. This client is compatible with any webrpc server language (ie. Go, nodejs, etc.). As the client is isomorphic, means you can use this within a Web browser or use the client in a server like nodejs -- both without needing any dependencies. I suggest to read the generated TS output of the generated code, and you shall see, its nothing fancy, just the sort of thing you'd write by hand.

2. Server -- a nodejs Typescript server handler. See examples.

Usage

webrpc-gen -schema=example.ridl -target=typescript -server -client -out=./example.gen.ts

or

webrpc-gen -schema=example.ridl -target=github.com/webrpc/gen-typescript@v0.7.0 -server -client -out=./example.gen.ts

or

webrpc-gen -schema=example.ridl -target=./local-templates-on-disk -server -client -out=./example.gen.ts

As you can see, the -target supports default typescript, any git URI, or a local folder :)

Set custom template variables

Change any of the following values by passing -option="Value" CLI flag to webrpc-gen.

webrpc-gen -option	Description	Default value
-client	generate client code	unset (false)
