scalafix-codegen

Example how to use scalafix for code generation. Run the following command in sbt:

out/compile

• triggers a source generator that runs in/scalafix ProcedureSyntax --out-from=in/src/main --out-to=out/target/scala-2.12/src_managed/main
• generates a new file out/target/scala-2.12/src_managed/main/scala/foo/Main.scala which is a copy of the same file from the in project with the ProcedureSyntax rule applied.

To customize the transformation, implement a Scalafix rule following this tutorial here: https://scalacenter.github.io/scalafix/docs/developers/tutorial.html

Note that generating source code from manually edited code has several issues:

• goto definition and other navigation in the editor jumps to the generated source code instead of the original source code
• stack traces at runtime have line numbers from the generated source code instead of the original source code.
