CobiGen TypeScript Plug-in

The TypeScript Plug-in enables merging result TS files to existing ones. This plug-in is used at the moment for generate an Angular2 client with all CRUD functionalities enabled. The plug-in also generates de i18n functionality just appending at the end of the word the ES or EN suffixes, to put into the developer knowledge that this words must been translated to the correspondent language. Currently, the generation of Angular2 client requires an ETO java object as input so, there is no need to implement an input reader for ts artifacts for the moment.

Trigger Extensions

As for the Angular2 generation the input is a java object, the trigger expressions (including matchers and variable assignments) are implemented as Java.

Merger extensions

There are currently two merge strategies:

• merge strategy html-ng* (add the new code respecting the existing is case of conflict)

• merge strategy html-ng*_override (add the new code overwriting the existent in case of conflict)

The merging of two Angular2 files will be processed as follows:

Mainly, the merge handles the following nodes types:

1. ImportDeclaration

2. ClassDeclaration

3. PropertyDeclaration

4. MethodDeclaration

5. Annotation

6. VariableDeclaration

ImportDeclaration

Will add non existent imports whatever the merge strategy is.
