Recursive shapes and manual traverse on raw model about amf

[nschejtman]

Hi @deiteris

unless it applies on some transformation stage

That is exactly what we do.

If you are using the raw model not only you won't get RecursiveShapes but you might also get links. Some reference we can resolve during parsing but others will be parsed as links that should be resolved in transformation.

Not sure what is your use case but you can consider having a custom pipeline that handles just the things you need

Hi @nschejtman. I see... My use case is a custom renderer from RAML, so I only need to read the model. Probably would be nice if I could have a custom pipeline step to detect and make such RecursiveShape before my custom code (in fact, I've already done recursion detection so I check them as I traverse). But is it possible to do in Javascript already? I see the documentation mentions that it's only for Scala and Java.

Hi @deiteris, unfortunately it is only for Scala and Java at the moment. You can create an issue as an enhancement request if you want. I don't know if we will be able to give it priority but at least it will be created.

If you do so, please create it as another github issue. With this comment, I'm closing the issue. Thanks!
