  • sneak peak: code generation extensions to prost (protobuf code generator)
    2 projects | /r/rust | 22 Apr 2021
    We've been using Rust with protobuf, but had to write lots of conversions from protobuf struct to actual DTO, since prost generates Options for nested types, and does not really support custom types. So I extended prost with the options that we needed. I might aim to also support protoc-gen-validate.

    I'm prototyping an alternative protobuf code generator, with the aim to support more configuration and options. Prost does not have any facilities for implementing extensions, so it's a fork with edits in every single component.
