I noticed that
haskell
(haskell-servant) andhaskell-yesod
generators cannot handle field names starting with upper case characters. For example, the following spec contains theMessage
field, and the generatedToJSON
/FromJSON
instances ofHelloResponse
do not work.For example, the following test program failed to convert JSON string into
HelloResponse
value.The problem is that those instances call the
uncapitalize
function even when the JSON field name starts with an upper-case letter.To resolve this problem, this PR proposes to change the field name conversion to the one based on the conversion table.
(However, I'm curious if there is a better way or how other generators handle this issue.)
With the changes in this PR, generated code looks like this:
and, the above-mentioned test program succeeds to convert JSON string and
HelloResponse
value:PR checklist
This is important, as CI jobs will verify all generator outputs of your HEAD commit as it would merge with master.
These must match the expectations made by your contribution.
You may regenerate an individual generator by passing the relevant config(s) as an argument to the script, for example
./bin/generate-samples.sh bin/configs/java*
.For Windows users, please run the script in Git BASH.
