I made a Python client generator for Solana Anchor projects (but I'm here to talk about codegen)

• genpy

  1 27 4.7 Python

  An AST for Python code generation, in Python

Generating Python code seems to be really uncommon. I was surprised at this - it's not an obviously insane thing to do, right? However I found almost no existing tooling to help me, and I did search for quite a while. Eventually I found a small, half-finished library called genpy and decided I would extend that as needed.

• anchorpy

  7 190 8.6 Python

  The Python Anchor client.

• InfluxDB

  www.influxdata.com sponsored

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• anchor-client-gen

  1 122 5.0 TypeScript

  A tool for generating solana web3 clients from anchor IDLs.

In building the client generator, I mimicked the Typescript tool anchor-client-gen but had to change a lot of things that didn't work in Python or weren't Pythonic if translated directly. The trickiest part was keeping track of types that I had generated in one file that needed to be imported in another generated file.
