govalid generates validation code for maps of strings to strings to marshal the data into well-typed structures.

Documentation

• GoDoc Documentation

Testing

Run go test to test. You may want to run go test -short to avoid fuzz testing of random input programs based off of the test/struct.ebnf grammar.

Future Work

• Real functional testing.
• Nicer error reporting. Ideally, the validation library would give you an error object from which you could easily generate a human-readable string indicating all of the bad fields passed in and why they were bad.
• Add more types to validate:
  • Enums?
• Include comments from original source.
• Handle weirder pre-existing imports source files, such as strconv imported as some other name.

Bugs

• Users cannot add more types to validate without modifying this library.
