# About chromedp-gen
|
|
|
|
`chromedp-gen` is a standalone cli tool for the [chromedp](https://github.com/knq/chromedp)
|
|
package that generates the types for the chrome domain APIs as defined in
|
|
Chrome's `protocol.json`.
|
|
|
|
## Updating protocol.json
|
|
|
|
Run [`update.sh`](update.sh) to retrieve and combine the latest
|
|
[`browser_protocol.json`](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/third_party/WebKit/Source/core/inspector/browser_protocol.json) and
|
|
[`js_protocol.json`](https://chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8/+/master/src/inspector/js_protocol.json)
|
|
from the [Chromium source tree](https://chromium.googlesource.com/) into [`protocol.json`](protocol.json).
|
|
|
|
## Installing quicktemplate and easyjson
|
|
|
|
`chromedp-gen` uses [quicktemplate](https://github.com/valyala/quicktemplate) for
|
|
code generation templates, and uses [easyjson](https://github.com/mailru/easyjson)
|
|
for JSON marshaling/unmarshaling.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, both of these projects cannot be used directly out of the box,
|
|
as the versions used by `chromedp-gen` make use of a couple minor modifications:
|
|
|
|
1. quicktemplate has been modified to recognize '{% end %}' templates
|
|
2. easyjson has been modified to always output generated code in the same order
|
|
(previously, the mailru version did not always generate the same output, as
|
|
a couple points in the code were being affected by the Go map/key order
|
|
issue).
|
|
|
|
I ([kenshaw](https://github.com/kenshaw)) have put in issues/pull requests to
|
|
both projects in the hope that the changes I've made get merged and/or fixed
|
|
otherwise.
|
|
|
|
For now, the exact versions that are in use with `chromedp-gen` can be obtained
|
|
on my personal Github account:
|
|
|
|
* [github.com/kenshaw/quicktemplate](https://github.com/kenshaw/quicktemplate)
|
|
* [github.com/kenshaw/easyjson](https://github.com/kenshaw/easyjson)
|
|
|
|
The commands (and their associated dependencies) can be installed in the usual
|
|
Go way:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
go get -u github.com/kenshaw/quicktemplate/qtc github.com/kenshaw/easyjson/easyjson
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each package provides a command (`qtc` and `easyjson`, respectively) that need
|
|
to be available on the path for the `chromedp-gen` command to work.
|
|
|
|
## Generating types for chromedp
|
|
|
|
Assuming the `qtc` and `easyjson` commands are available (see above), one can
|
|
then run the [`build.sh`](build.sh) which will handle generating template
|
|
files, and building/invoking the `chromedp-gen` command.
|
|
|
|
## Reference Output
|
|
|
|
The output of running `update.sh` and `build.sh` is below:
|
|
```sh
|
|
ken@ken-desktop:~/src/go/src/github.com/knq/chromedp/cmd/chromedp-gen$ ./update.sh
|
|
# download
|
|
curl -s $BROWSER_PROTO | base64 -d > $BROWSER_TMP
|
|
curl -s $JS_PROTO | base64 -d > $JS_TMP
|
|
|
|
# merge browser_protocol.json and js_protocol.json
|
|
jq -s '[.[] | to_entries] | flatten | reduce .[] as $dot ({}; .[$dot.key] += $dot.value)' $BROWSER_TMP $JS_TMP > $OUT
|
|
|
|
# convert boolean values listed as strings to real booleans
|
|
# (this is not used in favor of using the custom Bool type that correctly JSON unmarshals the value)
|
|
# left here for completeness
|
|
#perl -pi -e 's/"\s*:\s*"(true|false)"/": \1/g' $OUT
