Iterate Static Arrays

[davidscheutz]

I have this idea to simplify my code by generating code to constructor inject dependencies specified within my project.

The essential part of my code:

protocol MyProtocol {
     static var dependencies: [AnyClass.Type] { get }
}

final class MyClass: MyProtocol {
     static let dependencies: [AnyClass.Type] = [ApiClient.self]
}

What I would like to generate:

class MyClassBase {
     let apiClient: ApiClient

     init(apiClient: ApiClient) {
           self. apiClient = apiClient
     }
}

Usage

final class MyClass: MyClassBase, MyProtocol { ... }

Where I'm stuck
How do I read the values from the dependencies array?

I was trying something like this

{% for type in types.based.MyProtocol %}
class {{ type.name }}Base {

    {% for dependencyType in type.dependencies %}
    let {{ dependencyType.name|lowerFirst }}: {{ dependencyType.name }}
    {% endfor %}

    // ...

{% endfor %}

but without any result.

Happy to make that contribution myself if others find it valuable too.
I'm new to this project so if someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great.

Appreciate any ideas and support 🙌🏻

you'd need to split defaultValue, dependencies is not an array in AST model, it's just a variable of array type
