A better way to define schemas for your JSON.

Introduction

If you want to take the system for a spin, please go to https://reproto.github.io.

Reproto is:

• A compiler capable of generating code for various languages.
  try it out – documentation
• A custom interface description language that permits describing the schema of JSON and services in a concise, easy to understand way.
  documentation
• Early and extensive soundness checking, with excellent error handling. We catch schema issues before you know that you have them.
  ui tests
• A derive command, capable of deriving schemas directly from JSON.
  try it out – documentation.
• A semantic version checker which verifies that modifications to schemas do not violate semantic versioning.
  documentation
• A build system with a package manager using build manifests, giving you all the control you need to integrate reproto into your project.
  documentation
• A rich, markdown-based documentation generator.
  

These things combined support an ecosystem where schemas can be maintained and shared across many teams.

Note: This project is in an early stage. Things will change a lot. Please take it for a spin, but avoid building large repositories of schemas for now.

Getting Started

• See the documentation for an overview of how the reproto language and its build manifest works.
• See examples for some example specifications and projects.
• See the integration tests for even more examples on how protocol specifications can be used.
• See release notes for past and coming changes.

How to use

This extension needs to find a usable reproto command, this can be done in one of the following ways:

• reproto is in your PATH.
• REPROTO_HOME is defined, and contains bin/reproto.
• The reproto.executable user options points to a working executable.

Note: you can reload the extension by reloading the vscode window.
