I still think that namespaces should be directly exposed by eolian.
Currently pyolian provide a namespace implementation but it's
hard to get it right, and it should be really shared between
all eolian users.
This is (in my mind) meant to replace the current elua generator.
Currently the generated output is pratically identical to the elua
one, just some little difference here and there, some for thecnical
reasons and some just for my preference.
I consider this work just a starting point, extending the
templates we can now easily improve our docs. Whithout the need
to touch a single line of code.
Really I think this is a great improvements, and this are some
numbers to prove it:
Current elua implementation:
4185 lines of code in 7 lua files
generation time: ~ 7 seconds
New generator:
115 lines of python + 513 lines of templates
generation time: ~ 8 seconds (can be optimizd ALOT)
To generate the full Efl.* docs just run "./gendoc.py -v" in this folder.
...will wait for reviews (in particular from @andy and @q66)
