Subject: [Caml-list] [ANN] ppx_protobuf
Date: Fri, 02 May 2014 18:29:55 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <6232dace806569a16f7fbfaa1689ef42@whitequark.org> (raw)
Greetings.
I have just released the first version of ppx_protobuf, a complete
Protocol Buffers implementation. Unlike Google's implementation,
ppx_protobuf derives the message structure directly from OCaml type
definitions, which allows a much more seamless integration with
OCaml's types. In particular, ppx_protobuf natively supports
sum types, while maintaining full backwards compatibility with
protoc.
ppx_protobuf uses the extension points API, and thus requires
a recent (>= 2014-04-29) 4.02 (trunk) compiler. It also requires
an unreleased version of ppx_tools. It is probably easiest
to install both from the source repositories[1][2].
The API is extensively documented at [3].
