itsjustcode
Database First Code Generator that uses the SQL Alchemy and Jinja2
It's Just Code - Generate It
itsjustcode is intended to generate code from Jinja templates using SQL Alchemy's metadata. If you are looking for a library to generate class models from an existing database, this isn't it ... try sqlacodegen. itsjustcode is inteded to provide boilerplate code from templates to flesh out HTML files, or baseline javascript files for any number of available JavaScript frameworks (or TypeScript).
At the present moment, itsjustcode requires access to an existing database where it has been created via SQL Alchemy models (or created with regular SQL scripts). itsjustcode uses SQL Alchemy to access the metadata of a database in a conistent manner.
Sample Usage
Also check out the samples folder for templates, and outputs. It's just code is intended to be integrated into a developer's workflow, as deemed by the project so there isn't a hard lined approach as to its integration.
# generic sample
from itsjustcode import generateit
generateit(db_uri='mysql://username:password@localhost/database',
table='table_name',
template_search='my_proj/coding/templates/'
template_file='framework/template.j2',
out_file='my_proj/application/framework/template.extension')# generic cmd line implementation sample
# codeit.py
import argparse
from itsjustcode import generateit
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument('--table', action='store', dest='table')
parser.add_argument('--template', action='store', dest='template')
args = parser.parse_args()
out_file = 'my_proj/application/' + args.template
generateit(db_uri='mysql://username:password@localhost/database',
table=args.table,
template_search='my_proj/coding/templates/'
template_file=args.template + '.j2',
out_file=out_file)
# ** .j2 just gives the template another extesion (check samples for examples)# generic cmd line sample
$> python codeit.py --table table_name --template framework/file.extension
