Schyml - Generate data from YAML

Usage:

schyml              - show help
schyml conf         - show config in .schyml file
schyml help         - show this help
schyml yaml         - show yaml of model
schyml model [args] - show complete model applying args, see below
schyml list         - list model names

args can be

• file.hbs to use the model on handlebars file file.hbs
• file.js to format the model

If both files are in the args file.hbs is applied to the format output by file.js.

Next args select which parts of the model to work on. These are the names of .yml files to use as input instead of the whole ModelDir.

Finally the eval argument may be passed to indicate that the output of file.hbs and/or file.js is a js module schyml should output the result of evaluating it with the remaining arguments.

Formatting

The file.js argument should be a Javascript file that returns a new representation of the model. It is passed the model and an iterator function that runs its input function arguments on parts of the model:

module.exports = function (model, iterModel) {
  var result = {}
  var table
  function onTable (t) {
	table = t
	if (!result[table]) result[table] = {}
  }
  function onField (field, value) {
	if (!table) result[field] = value
	else result[table][field] = value
  }
  function onHeader (text) {
	result[table].header = text
  }
  function onFooter (text) {
	result[table].footer = text
  }
  iterModel(onTable, onField, onHeader, onFooter)
  return result
}
