This is a very experimental library that uses code generation to create functions for creating objects. Currently it doesn't work in many scenarios so just don't use this yet.
Say you have some classes like this:
// ./src/classes.ts
export class Main {
name: string;
other: Other;
}
export class Other {
prop: string;
}
You could generate some code based on these classes:
import * as fs from "fs";
const code = getGeneratedCode({
srcRoot: "./src"
files: ["./src/classes.ts"]
});
fs.writeFile("./src/objectFactory.ts", code);
Then this would allow you to do the following:
// ./src/main.ts
import * as objectFactory from "./objectFactory";
import {Other, Main} from "./classes";
const main = objectFactory.Classes.Main.create({
name: "my name",
other: {
prop: "my prop string"
}
});
main instanceof Main; // true
main.other instanceof Other; // true
// serialize it
const json = JSON.stringify(main);
// deserialize it
const newMain = objectFactory.Classes.Main.create(JSON.parse(json));
newMain instanceof Main; // true
newMain.other instanceof Other; // true
