Jsonnet Sandboxed API

This library provides sandboxed version of the Jsonnet library.

Examples

The examples/ directory contains code to produce three command-line tools -- jsonnet_sandboxed, jsonnet_yaml_stream_sandboxed and jsonnet_multiple_files_sandboxed to evaluate jsonnet code. The first one enables the user to evaluate jsonnet code held in one file and writing to one output file. The second evaluates one jsonnet file into one file, which can be interepreted as YAML stream. The third one is for evaluating one jsonnet file into multiple output files. All three tools are based on what can be found here.

Apart from these, there is also a file producing jsonnet_formatter_sandboxed executable. It is based on a tool found from here. It is a jsonnet code formatter -- it changes poorly written jsonnet files into their canonical form.

Build

To build these examples, after cloning the whole Sandbox API project, you also need to run

git submodule update --init --recursive

anywhere in the project tree in order to clone the jsonnet submodule. Then in the sandboxed-api/oss-internship-2020/jsonnet run

mkdir build && cd build
cmake -G Ninja
ninja

To run jsonnet_sandboxed (or jsonnet_yaml_stream_sandboxed or jsonnet_formatter_sandboxed in a similar way):

cd examples
./jsonnet_sandboxed \
    absolute/path/to/the/input_file.jsonnet \ 
    absolute/path/to/the/output_file

To run jsonnet_mutiple_files_sandboxed:

cd examples
./jsonnet_mutiple_files_sandboxed \
    absolute/path/to/the/input_file.jsonnet \ 
    absolute/path/to/the/output_directory

All three tools support evaluating one input file (possibly relying on multiple other files, e.x. by jsonnet import command; the files must be held in the same directory as input file) into one or more output files. Example jsonnet codes to evaluate in a one-in-one-out manner can be found here. Example code producing multiple output files or YAML stream files can be found in the examples/jsonnet_codes directory (along with some other examples copied with minimal changes from the library files), in files called multiple_files_example.jsonnet and yaml_stream_example.jsonnet, respectively. In the examples/jsonnet_codes_expected_output directory one can found outputs the mentioned above files' evaluation should produce.

The formatter reads one input file and produces one output file as a result. Example code for this tool can also be found in examples/jsonnet_codes directory, in a file called formatter_example.jsonnet.

Testing

A few tests prepared with a use of Google Test framework can be found in the tests/ directory. To run them type:

cd tests
./tests
