@lionweb/cli NPM

The `cli` package

This package exposes an executable for use with a CLI. It can be used as follows:

$ npx @lionweb/cli <command> <arguments>

Just running

$ npx @lionweb/cli

produces information about which commands are available.

This CLI utility does not perform any explicit validation apart from the file at the given path existing and being valid JSON. It does some implicit validation as it can error out on incorrect serializations.

Sorting a serialization chunk

Run the following command to sort a serialization chunk (e.g.):

npx @lionweb/cli sort ../artifacts/chunks/languages/lioncore.json

Sorting a serialization chunk means the following:

All nodes sorted by ID.
For all nodes, their properties, containments, and references sorted by key (from the meta-pointer),
All containments and references sorted by ID.

The sorting produces a serialization chunk that's also aligned on JSON-level with the specification. That means that key-value pairs appear in precisely the same order as they do in the specification, and that missing key-value pairs are put in and get their default values.

Fix that @lionweb/validation was not specified as a (non-dev) dependency.

0.6.0

Change the diagram command to output PlantUML and Mermaid diagram files per language.
Add a validation commmand to validate JSON files as serialization chunks.
Remove the shortening functionality from extract.
Rename the extract command → sort, and remove the textualization for chunks that are the serialization of languages.
Textualizing a serialization chunk of languages will use the LionCore/M3-specific syntax unless the flag --languagesAsRegular is an argument.
Add a repair command.
Add a textualize command – that's optionally language-aware – to render a JSON serialization chunk as pure text.

0.5.0

This is the first version corresponding to a release of LionWeb (version: 2023.1) as a whole.

Make language-related functionality "multi-lingual", i.e. a serialization chunk can contain multiple Languages.
