inprint

inprint

A very simple precompiler (written in typescript). With it you can make a dynamically generated blocks in your code.

Installation

npm i inprint --save-dev
yarn i inprint --save-dev
pnpm i inprint --save-dev

npm i -g inprint
yarn i -g inprint
pnpm i -g inprint

Usage

1. Anywhere in your code add a block you want to generate like this

console.log("any code can be here");
// @INPRINT_START {my:"own params", json5:'is supported here!'}
// Anything here will be overwritten by generated code!
// @INPRINT_END
console.log("any code can be here");

1. Now add inprint.cjs (or .js) to your project with the following contents:

module.exports.inprint = {
    files:['src/**/*.{ts,tsx,js,jsx}'],
    inprint: function inprint(paramsObject) {
        return "    // " + JSON.stringify(paramsObject);
    }
}

1. Run inprint

2. The returned content will be inprinted between @INPRINT tags:

console.log("any code can be here");
// @INPRINT_START {my:"own params", json5:'is supported here!'}
// {my:"own params", json5:'is supported here!'}
// @INPRINT_END
console.log("any code can be here");
