Rust CLI for the Simple Domain Modeling Language (SDML).

[[https://crates.io/crates/sdml_cli][https://img.shields.io/crates/v/sdml_cli.svg]]

This package is part of the Rust SDML project and specifically implements the =sdml= command-line interface (CLI). The project's intent is to provide an idiomatic implementation of the in-memory model, parser, generators, and the CLI tool.

The following figure demonstrates this package in the broader project context.

• Installation

To install the command-line tool on MacOS or Linux use the Homebrew package manager and the SDML Tap. Installing in this way also installs dependencies such as GraphViz and PlantUML used for diagram generation.

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code :eval never ❯ brew install sdm-lang/sdml/sdml #+END_SRC

You can check that you have the tool installed and on the path with the following check.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml versions
SDML CLI: 0.2.7 SDML grammar: 0.2.16 Tree-Sitter ABI: 14 #+END_EXAMPLE

** Install via cargo

Cargo is usually installed with the Rust toolchain using [[https://rustup.rs/[rustup]].

The following command should download and build the tool, and will also work to install any updates.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ cargo install sdml-cli #+END_EXAMPLE

Cargo will sometimes report that you have the latest version installed, to be sure you can force it to install regardless with the =--force= option.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ cargo install sdml-cli --force #+END_EXAMPLE

** Install from source

To install the CLI from source you need to clone the entire repository.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ git clone https://github.com/sdm-lang/rust-sdml.git #+END_EXAMPLE

In the =rust-sdml= directory you can build/test/install using the following commands.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ cargo build ❯ cargo test ❯ cargo install --path sdml-cli #+END_EXAMPLE

• Global Options

Certain command-line options act on all commands, these must appear before the command. The SDML tool has a log-filter and a no-color global option.

The set of packages making up =rust-sdml= all have extensive logging which can be enabled when running the tool. The global argument =--log-filter= takes a log level and displays any log event with a severity greater than, or equal to, the filter.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml --log-filter tracing versions 2024-02-20T19:06:53.141741Z INFO sdml: Log level set to LevelFilter::Tracing 2024-02-20T19:06:53.141877Z TRACE sdml: Commands::execute self: Versions SDML CLI: 0.2.7 SDML grammar: 0.2.16 Tree-Sitter ABI: 14 #+END_EXAMPLE

Some of the commands will, by default, use colored output which can be a problem if you save a file for future processing as the control characters play havoc with diff tools for example.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml --no-color versions ❯ NO_COLOR=1 sdml versions ❯ CLI_COLOR=0 sdml versions #+END_EXAMPLE

** Representation Conversion

This command (convert) allows the conversion of a module from the SDML surface syntax into one of a number of alternate representations.

*** RDF

This uses the surface to RDF mapping defined in the SDML Language Reference. The mapping is normative and stable.

*** JSON

This is a direct representation of the in-memory model in the Rust package =sdml_core= in JSON. This mapping is non-normative and may change according to any model structure change.

*** S-Expression

This is a debugging representation, and supported as the underlying tree-sitter library uses s-expressions as a parse-tree visualization.

** Dependency Visualization

This command (dep) generates a representation of the transitive closure of dependencies for a given module into one of a number of alternate representations.

*** Tree

Show dependencies as a text tree with the original as the root.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml deps sdml sdml ├── owl │ ├── rdf │ │ └── rdfs │ │ └── rdf │ ├── rdfs │ └── xsd │ ├── rdf │ └── rdfs ├── rdf ├── rdfs ├── skos │ ├── rdf │ └── rdfs └── xsd #+END_EXAMPLE

In some cases the entire set of dependencies is not necessary and the =--depth= argument can be added to only show a number of levels of import from the root. The depth argument instructs to command to stop after that many dependencies away from the original module. Setting depth to 1 will only show the direct dependencies of the original.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml deps --depth 1 sdml sdml ├── owl ├── rdf ├── rdfs ├── skos └── xsd #+END_EXAMPLE

*** Graph

Create an SVG representation of the dependency graph using GraphViz.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml deps --output-format graph sdml > sdml-deps.svg ❯ open -a Safari sdml-deps.svg #+END_EXAMPLE

[[https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdm-lang/rust-sdml/main/sdml-generate/doc/example_deps_graph.svg]]

*** RDF

Create a set of RDF statements,as N-Triples, that represent the individual OWL import relationships.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml deps --depth 1 --output-format rdf sdml http://sdml.io/sdml-owl.ttl# http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#imports http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl# . http://sdml.io/sdml-owl.ttl# http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#imports http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns# . http://sdml.io/sdml-owl.ttl# http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#imports http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema# . http://sdml.io/sdml-owl.ttl# http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#imports http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core# . http://sdml.io/sdml-owl.ttl# http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#imports http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema# . #+END_EXAMPLE

** Diagram Generation

This command (draw) generates diagrams of a module with different perspectives.

*** Concepts

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml draw --diagram concepts --o example-concepts.svg -i example/example.sdm ❯ open -a Safari example-concepts.svg #+END_EXAMPLE

[[https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdm-lang/rust-sdml/main/sdml-generate/doc/example-concepts.svg]]

*** Entity Relationship

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml draw --diagram entity-relationship --o example-erd.svg -i example/example.sdm ❯ open -a Safari example-erd.svg #+END_EXAMPLE

[[https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdm-lang/rust-sdml/main/sdml-generate/doc/example-erd.svg]]

*** UML Class

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml draw --diagram uml-class --o example-uml.svg -i example/example.sdm ❯ open -a Safari example-uml.svg #+END_EXAMPLE

[[https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdm-lang/rust-sdml/main/sdml-generate/doc/example-uml.svg]]

** Document (Project) Generation

This command (doc-book) creates structured documentation for a collection of modules, and includes annotations, constraints and all definition types. The generated documentation also include diagrams and dependency graphs.

*** Org-mode

Create an Emacs org-mode formatted file. This format allows all content to be written into a single file with export options to HTML, LaTeX, Word, PDF and more.

** Document (Module) Generation

This command (doc) creates structured documentation for a module, and includes annotations, constraints and all definition types. The generated documentation also include diagrams and dependency graphs.

*** Org-mode

Create an Emacs org-mode formatted file. This format allows all content to be written into a single file with export options to HTML, LaTeX, Word, PDF and more.

*** Markdown

Create a markdown formatted file, this file uses GitHub-flavored markdown to allow for some better content formatting than CommonMark.

** Module Highlighting

TBD

** XRef Tag Generation

TBD

** Validation

This command (validate) provides deep validation of a module's content, including errors, warnings, and linter-like advice. Checks are run not only on the initial module, but it's transitively loaded dependencies.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml validate --level all -i examples/errors/i0506.sdm note[I0506]: identifier not using preferred casing ┌─ examples/errors/i0506.sdm:1:8 │ 1 │ module Example https://example.com/api is │ ^^^^^^^ this identifier │ = expected snake case (snake_case) = help: for more details, see https://sdml.io/errors/#I0506

note[I0506]: identifier not using preferred casing ┌─ examples/errors/i0506.sdm:3:13 │ 3 │ structure access_record is │ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ this identifier │ = expected upper camel case (UpperCamelCase) = help: for more details, see https://sdml.io/errors/#I0506 #+END_EXAMPLE

Additionally, a short-form option will generate diagnostics using a CSV format that is easier for tools to parse. The fields in this format are: severity, file name, start line, start column, end line, end column, error code, and message.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml validate --level all --short-form -i examples/errors/i0506.sdm note,examples/errors/i0506.sdm,1,8,1,15,I0506,identifier not using preferred casing note,examples/errors/i0506.sdm,3,13,3,26,I0506,identifier not using preferred casing #+END_EXAMPLE

** Version Information

This command (versions) shows more information than the simple =--version= global argument and is useful for debugging.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml versions
SDML CLI: 0.2.7 SDML grammar: 0.2.16 Tree-Sitter ABI: 14 #+END_EXAMPLE

** Module Viewer

This command (view) will generate source code from a module file, which at first seems redundant. However, this view provides levels of detail that allow for an overview of module definitions. The =--level= argument can be used to elide content and get an overview of a module.

*** Definitions Only

Show only the definitions in the module, any definition body will be elided, for an overview of the module contents. Elided definitions are followed by =";; ..."=.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml view --level definitions -i examples/example.sdm module example https://example.com/api is

import [ dc xsd ]

datatype Uuid <- sdml:string ;; ...

entity Example ;; ...

end #+END_EXAMPLE

*** Members

Show definitions in the module and show the members of product types and variants of sum types but not their bodies if present.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml view --level members -i examples/example.sdm module example https://example.com/api is

import [ dc xsd ]

datatype Uuid <- sdml:string ;; ...

entity Example is version -> Uuid name -> sdml:string ;; ... end

end #+END_EXAMPLE

*** Full

Show all contents of the module.

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE bash ❯ sdml view --level full -i examples/example.sdm module example https://example.com/api is

import [ dc xsd ]

datatype Uuid <- sdml:string is @xsd:pattern = "[0-9a-f]{8}-([0-9a-f]{4}-){3}[0-9a-f]{12}" end

entity Example is version -> Uuid name -> sdml:string is @dc:description = "the name of this thing"@en end end

end #+END_EXAMPLE
