Generate files based on annotation

Hello I have this class:

@Serializable
data class PacketWrapper(
    @ProtoNumber(1)
    val message: MessagePacket? = null,

    @ProtoNumber(2)
    val action: ActionPacket? = null,

    @ProtoNumber(3)
    val disconnect: DisconnectPacket? = null
)

@Serializable
data class PacketWrapper(
    @ProtoNumber(1)
    val message: MessagePacket? = null,

    @ProtoNumber(2)
    val action: ActionPacket? = null,

    @ProtoNumber(3)
    val disconnect: DisconnectPacket? = null
)

I would like to add an annotation like @GenerateProFile("packet.proto") to generate the protobuf files associate to the class definition. However I don't know where to start. Should I create KSP module, a gradle plugin, etc. Do you have any advices and (maybe) example to know how to start

Hum .. There are lot of experts here 🥲 That's why, but I can send in kordex if it's more appropriate

gdude•2d ago

it wouldn't be more appropriate there either aren't you on the kotlin server or ayfri's french kotlin server?

kotlin server? The slack?

gdude•2d ago

no, kotlin discord, the one I run I mean I don't particularly care if you ask stuff here, but I don't think you should get used to using this server for general kotlin help when there are general kotlin spaces
