Generate go files

Clone this repo so that it has the same parent dir as the scout repo. Or just edit the paths below.

First, you have to compile the conjure-ir json file. Then use gödel to generate the conjure.

pushd ../scout; ./gradlew scout-service-api:compileIr; popd
./godelw conjure

Tidy and check your build:

go mod tidy
go build ./...

Steps to reproduce this project from scratch

Install go 1.25. Then we need to add gödel. It's like gradle, but for golang projects, which no one asked for, but alas.

Check the wiki for more: https://github.com/palantir/godel/wiki/Add-godel

go install github.com/palantir/godel/v2/godelinit@latest

Now let's create the structure.

go mod init github.com/nominal-io/nominal-api-go

Initialize the gödel crap

godelinit

Add the gödel conjure plugin

echo 'plugins:
  resolvers:
    - "https://github.com/{{index GroupParts 1}}/{{index GroupParts 2}}/releases/download/v{{Version}}/{{Product}}-{{Version}}-{{OS}}-{{Arch}}.tgz"
  plugins:
    - locator:
        id: "com.palantir.godel-conjure-plugin:conjure-plugin:6.84.0"
        checksums:
          darwin-arm64: "ad493a2ff5a997380d0d96428f1b8dc2bdf47706b1ba3277053f3e0689043da9"' >> ./godel/config/godel.yml

Add the config for the conjure plugin

echo 'version: 1
projects:
  scout-service-api:
    output-dir: generated
    ir-locator: ../scout/scout-service-api/build/conjure-ir/scout-service-api.conjure.json
' > ./godel/config/conjure-plugin.yml

Update gödel to download the plugin

./godelw update

You need to install the golang witchcraft-go-error package. If you don't have it installed, it generates code that uses the package without importing it. But if you install it, then it is imported and used. 🤷

go get github.com/palantir/witchcraft-go-error

Now you can generate the golang code. You may need to compile the conjure IR first.

pushd ../scout; ./gradlew scout-service-api:compileIr; popd
./godelw conjure

Run go mod tidy to download your dependencies.

Finally, test it all works

go build ./...
