gen (v4)

Optional typewriters

Here are a few optional typewriters I’ve created. They are not built into gen, but can be added as follows.

Set

To add:

gen add github.com/clipperhouse/set

To use:

// +gen set
type MyType struct{}

Implements a strongly-typed set with common operations (Union, Difference, etc). Items stored within it are unordered and unique.

The implementation is based on github.com/deckarep/golang-set, with permission. API documentation is available here. Parameters and return values that would be interface{} in the @deckarep implementation will instead use your type in the gen implementation.

List

To add:

gen add github.com/clipperhouse/linkedlist

To use:

// +gen list
type MyType struct{}

Implements a strongly-typed, doubly-linked list, based on golang.org/pkg/container/list. API documentation is available at that link. Parameters and return values that would be interface{} in the golang implementation will instead use your type in the gen implementation.

Ring

To add:

gen add github.com/clipperhouse/ring

To use:

// +gen ring
type MyType struct{}

Implements strongly-typed operations on circular lists, based on golang.org/pkg/container/ring. API documentation is available at that link. Parameters and return values that would be interface{} in the golang implementation will instead use your type in the gen implementation.
