Berel

berel is a small program in vala whose purpose is to illustrate the use of the pluie-yaml lib while allowing to configure and write a common header to all the source files of a project

usage

to use berel in your project you need a yaml configuration (.berel.yml) file at the root of your project. then cd to your project and just execute berel.

License

GNU GPL v3

Prerequisites

valac meson ninja libyaml glib gio gobject gmodule gee pluie-echo pluie-yaml

see https://git.pluie.org/pluie/libpluie-echo in order to install pluie-echo-0.2 pkg
see https://git.pluie.org/pluie/lib-yaml in order to install pluie-yaml-0.5 pkg

Install

git clone the project then cd to project directory and do :

meson --prefix=/usr ./ build
sudo ninja install -C build

or simply execute

build.sh

configuration

configuration file is defined with a root meta mapping node which contains three mapping child node :

  • the keys
  • the headers definition
  • the tpl data

configuring keys

the keys node is a mapping node with any single pair node (except with name keys & sepline).
scalar values are also free but you need to know that data are split with ';' as delimiter to produce a third column

%YAML 1.2
%TAG !v! tag:pluie.org,2018:vala/
---
!v!Pluie.Berel.Meta meta :
  keys :
    software    : berel; <https://git.pluie.org/pluie/berel>
    version     : 0.21
    type        : program
    date        : 2018
    license     : GPLv3.0; <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>
    author      : a-Sansara; <[dev]at[pluie]dot[org]>
    copyright   : pluie.org; <http://www.pluie.org>

with ^keys^ in the tpl node (see below), it will produce :

@software    :    berel           <https://git.pluie.org/pluie/berel>
@version     :    0.21
@type        :    program
@date        :    2018
@license     :    GPLv3.0         <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>
@author      :    a-Sansara       <[dev]at[pluie]dot[org]>
@copyright   :    pluie.org       <http://www.pluie.org>

this part allow using defined keys as variables in the template :

^license.name^ will produce : GPLv3.0
^license.address^ will produce : <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>

configuring headers

headers node is a sequence of Berel.HeaderDef mapping node

  headers :
    - sh :

        file        :             # sequence of scalar, add any file
            - build.sh

        startline   : 2           # to embed shebang before header tpl

        sepline     :             # a separator line build with a repeating motif
            motif       : "# "    
            repeat      : 40

        comment     :             # comment definition to use. it is recommended 
            start       : "#^#"   # to add a special character in addition to distinguish 
            end         : "#^#"   # the comment from the source file of the berel header comment.
            begin       : "#  "   # begin is the motif to prepend to each line in the template
    - vala :
        dir         :             # sequence of scalar, berel will inspect directory
            - src                 # recursively and treat any file matching the defined extensions
        extension   :             # sequence of scalar, define your extensions.
            - .vala
        sepline     :
            motif       : " *"
            repeat      : 40
        comment     :
            start       : "/*^"
            end         : "^*/"
            begin       : " *  "

configuring template

you can use variables by enclosing name with '^'

^sepline^ is a reserved variable.
sepline will act as a line separtor. for example with the previous vala header definition it will produce :

 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

for sh header definition, it will use 'sharp' instead of 'star' symbol.

^keys^ is another reserved variable.
it will produce all the defined keys in the keys node (first part config)

you can use other variables with name matching your keys.
theses variables will act as a Berel.Key :
$keyName.name : first part of scalar value
$keyName.address : second part of scalar value (after semicolon)

example :

  tpl : |
    ^sepline^

    ^keys^

    ^sepline^
