# Cuetils
CUE utilities and helpers
for working with tree based objects
in any combination of CUE, Yaml, and JSON.
## Using
### As a command line binary
The `cuetils` CLI is useful for bulk operations
or when you don't want to write extra CUE or Go.
Download a [release from GitHub](https://github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils/releases).
```
cuetils -h
```
### As a Go library
The Go libraries are optimized and have more capabilities.*
```shell
go get github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils@latest
```
```
import "github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils/structural"
```
\* work in progress, unoptimized use the CUE helper and RecurseN
### As a CUE library
The CUE libraries all use the [RecurseN](#recursen) helper
and make use of the ["function" pattern](https://cuetorials.com/patterns/functions/).
You can also write [custom operators](#custom-operators).
Add to your project with `hof mod` or another method.
See: https://cuetorials.com/first-steps/modules-and-packages/#dependency-management
```
import "github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils/structural"
```
## Structural Helpers
- [Count](#count) the nodes in an object
- [Depth](#depth) how deep an object is
- [Diff](#diff) two objects, producing a structured diff
- [Patch](#patch) an object, producing a new object
- [Pick](#pick) a subojbect from another, selecting only the parts you want
- [Mask](#mask) a subobject from another, filtering out parts you don't want
- [Replace](#replace) with a subobject, updating fields found
- [Upsert](#upsert) with a subobject, updating and adding fields
- [Transform](#transform) one or more objects into another using CUE
- [Validate](#validate) one or more objects with the power of CUE
The helpers work by checking if two operands unify.
We try to make note of the edge cases where appropriate,
as it depends on both the operation and the method you are using (CUE, Go, or `cuetils`).
### Count
__#Count__ calculates how many nodes are in an object.
CLI example
```cue
a: {
foo: "bar"
a: b: c: "d"
}
cow: "moo"
```
```shell
$ cuetils count tree.cue
9
```
CUE example
```cue
import "github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils/structural"
tree: {
a: {
foo: "bar"
a: b: c: "d"
}
cow: "moo"
}
depth: (structural.#Count & { #in: tree }).out
depth: 9
```
Go example
### Depth
__#Depth__ calculates the deepest branch of an object.
CLI example
```cue
a: {
foo: "bar"
a: b: c: "d"
}
cow: "moo"
```
```shell
$ cuetils depth tree.cue
5
```
CUE example
```cue
import "github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils/structural"
tree: {
a: {
foo: "bar"
a: b: c: "d"
}
cow: "moo"
}
depth: (structural.#Depth & { #in: tree }).out
depth: 5
```
Go example
```Go
import "github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils/structural"
```
### Diff
__#Diff__ computes a semantic diff object
CLI example
```
-- a.json --
{
"a": {
"b": "B"
}
}
-- b.yaml --
a:
c: C
b: B
```
```shell
$ cuetils diff a.json b.yaml
{
"+": {
b: "B"
}
a: {
"-": {
b: "B"
}
"+": {
c: "C"
}
}
}
```
CUE example
```cue
import "github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils/structural"
x: {
a: "a"
b: "b"
d: "d"
e: {
a: "a"
b: "b"
d: "d"
}
}
y: {
b: "b"
c: "c"
d: "D"
e: {
b: "b"
c: "c"
d: 1
}
}
diff: (structural.#Diff & { #X: x, #Y: y }).diff
diff: {
"-": {
a: "a"
d: "d"
}
e: {
"-": {
a: "a"
d: "d"
}
"+": {
d: 1
c: "c"
}
}
"+": {
d: "D"
c: "c"
}
}
```
Go example
```Go
import "github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils/structural"
```
For __diff__ and __patch__, `int & 1` like expressions will _not_ be detected.
Lists are not currently supported for __diff__ and __patch__.
It may be workable if the list sizes are known and order consistent.
[Associative Lists](https://cuetorials.com/cueology/futurology/associative-lists/) may solve this issue.
We don't currently have good syntax for specifying the key to match elements on.
### Patch
__#Patch__ applies a diff object
CLI example
```
-- patch.json --
{
"+": {
b: "B"
}
a: {
"-": {
b: "B"
}
"+": {
c: "C"
}
}
}
-- a.json --
{
"a": {
"b": "B"
}
}
```
```shell
$ cuetils patch patch.json a.json
{
b: "B"
a: {
c: "C"
}
}
```
CUE example
```cue
import "github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils/structural"
x: {
a: "a"
b: "b"
d: "d"
e: {
a: "a"

d: "d"
}
}
p: {
"-": {
a: "a"
d: "d"
}
e: {
"-": {
a: "a"
d: "d"
}
"+": {
d: 1
c: "c"
}
}
"+": {
d: "D"

}
}
patch: (structural.#Patch & { #X: x, #Y: y }).patch
patch: {

./schema.cue:3:6
a.json:3:8
Errors in 1 file(s)
```
Go example
```Go
import "github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils/structural"
```
### RecurseN
A function factory for bounded recursion, defaulting to 20.
This is a pattern to get around CUE's cycle detection
by creating a struct with fields named for each iteration.
See https://cuetorials.com/deep-dives/recursion/ for more details.
```cue
#RecurseN: {
#maxiter: uint | *20
#funcFactory: {
#next: _
#func: _
}
for k, v in list.Range(0, #maxiter, 1) {
#funcs: "\(k)": (#funcFactory & {#next: #funcs["\(k+1)"]}).#func
}
#funcs: "\(#maxiter)": null
#funcs["0"]
}
```
The core of the bounded recursion is this structural comprehension (unrolled for loop).
The "recursive call" is made with the following pattern.
```cue
(#funcFactory & {#next: #funcs["\(k+1)"]}).#func
```
You can override the iterations with `{ #maxdepth: 100 }` at the point of
usage or by creating new helpers from the existing ones.
You may need to adjust this
- up for deep objects
- down if runtime is an issue
```cue
import "github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils/structural"
#LeaguesDeep: structural.#Depth & { #maxdepth: 10000 }
```
### Custom Helpers
You can make new helpers by building on the `#RecurseN` pattern.
You need two definitions, a factory and the user facing, recursed version.
```cue
package structural
import (
"list"
"github.com/hofstadter-io/cuetils/recurse"
)
// A function factory
#depthF: {
// always required
#next: _
// the actual computation, must be named #func
#func: {
// you can have any args
#in: _
// or internal helpers
#multi: {...} | [...]
// the result, can be named anything
depth: {
// detect leafs
if (#in & #multi) == _|_ { 1 }
// detect struct
if (#in & {...}) != _|_ {
list.Max([for k,v in #in {(#next & {#in: v}).depth}]) + 1
}
// detect list
if (#in & [...]) != _|_ {
list.Max([for k,v in #in {(#next & {#in: v}).depth}])
}
}
}
}
// The user facing, recursed version
#Depth: recurse.#RecurseN & {#funcFactory: #depthF}
```
The core of the recursive calling is:
```cue
(#next & {#in: v}).depth
```
