RSDL-to-CSDL Compiler

RAPID Schema Definition Language (RSDL) is a language to define Web APIs.

RSDL is based on the RAPID Profile of the OData specification. RAPID provides an easy way to envision, create, and consume a Web API that is compatible with the OData Standard and can evolve over time to support more advanced scenarios.

Installation

Clone or download this repository, go to the rsdl-js folder and type

npm install

To install globally type

npm install -g

Usage

Assuming you installed the package globally and your RSDL file is MyModel.rsdl, then

rsdl2csdl -p myModel.rsdl

will create MyModel.json next to it.

Just type

rsdl2csdl -h

to get usage hints

Usage: rsdl2csdl <options> <source files>
Options:
 -h, --help              show this info
 -p, --pretty            pretty-print JSON result

If you installed the script locally, start it via

node lib/cli.js ...

Development Setup

Install

• Java
• Node.js
• VS Code
• ANTLR4 grammar syntax support (workspace recommendation)

Done

• [x] create grammar
• [x] create listener that produces CSDL
• [x] create CLI
• [x] use test files from ../rapid-cli/rapid.rdm.transformation.tests/data
• [x] inheritance
• [x] annotations
• [x] flags enumerations
• [x] create error listener for syntactically incorrect "files"
• [x] log errors from CLI
• [x] type definitions
• [x] doc comments
• [x] migrate to ANTLR 4.9.2 and switch from CommonJS modules to ES modules

TODO

• [ ] Model validation
• [ ] Option -a for compiling all files in a folder?
• [ ] Option -r for recursive compilation?
• [ ] Update to ANTLR 4.9.x
