Generated Enum And Config Code From Json Schema
Trigger: You have a large dynamic schema (300+ entries) and need per-language type safety without hand-writing or hand-maintaining enums.
Steps
- Create a generator binary (Rust here) that reads content_types_kb.min.json and config.min.json.
- Parse with serde; for each content type emit a const struct with label, mime_type, group, description, extensions, is_text.
- Generate enum variants per type; map labels to valid identifiers (CamelCase / snake_case, leading-digit prefix).
- Write generated code under a clearly-marked path (rust/lib/src/content.rs, python types/content_type_label.py) with a 'DO NOT EDIT' header.
- Use a deterministic ordering (BTreeMap) so regeneration is reproducible.
- Wire generation into the build pipeline (build.rs, setup.py hook, or dedicated generate.sh) and check generated files into git.
Counter / Caveats
- Generator output must be deterministic; non-deterministic ordering breaks reproducible builds and noisy diffs.
- Schema drift (new fields, type changes) causes generator failures; version the schema and validate before generating.
- Large enums (300+ variants) slow Rust compile times; consider non_exhaustive and feature gates.
- IDE autocomplete fails until generation runs; document a clone-time setup script.
