Work with Maru.Type

[falood]

This is a feature for v0.3.x, will use a totally different DSL.
the type option is quite useful for generating documents.
custom Type can be defined like this:

defmodule Maru.Types.Date do
  use Maru.Type

  def arguments do
    [:format]
  end
  
  def serialize(output, %{format: "m/d/Y"}) do
    ...
  end
  
  def serialize(output, %{format: "Y-m-d"}) do
    ...
  end
end

expose :age, type: Integer

expose :name, type: fn(instance, _options) ->
  "#{instance.firstname} #{instance.lastname}"
end |> String

expose :image, type: fn(instance, _options) ->
  File.read!(instance.image_path)
end |> Base64

expose :data, type: Data, format: "m/d/Y"

expose :posts, type: List[PostEntity]

This looks like a very powerful feature. Has any progress (via a public branch) been made?

Thanks for reminding me, in the last year I have a lot of business things and took less time on open source projects, will try to take more time on them 🙂

Totally! No rush
