VIPR: Client Library Generation Toolkit

Build status Issue Stats Issue Stats

VIPR is an extensable toolkit for generating Web Service Client Libraries. VIPR is designed to be highly extensible, enabling developers to adapt it to read new Web Service description languages and to create libraries for new target platforms with ease.

This repository contains the core VIPR infrastructure, Readers for OData v3 and v4, and Writers for C#, Objective-C, and Java. It also contains a Windows Command Line Interface application that can be used to drive Client Library generation.

Today, Vipr is composed of the following components:

  • Vipr.Core. Provides the interfaces required for extending Vipr as well as the core Client Library generation logic. It also defines the ODCM Object Model used to describe service capabilities between Readers and Writers.

  • Vipr. Command Line Interface enabling generation of Client Libraries on Windows.

  • ODataReader.v3. IOdcmReader implementation for converting OData v3 metadata into an OdcmModel.

  • ODataReader.v4. IOdcmReader implementation for converting OData v4 metadata into an OdcmModel.

  • CSharpWriter. IOdcmWriter implementation for converting an OdcmModel into a C# Client Library.

  • TemplateWriter. IOdcmWriter implementation for converting an OdcmModel into a Java or Objective-C Client Library.
