Description
Currently, if cue exp gengotypes is run on the following code:
package x
#T: #Foo | #Bar
#Foo: {
type!: "foo"
x?: bool
}
#Bar: {
type!: "bar"
x?: int
}
It will produce Go code like this:
package x
type T map[string]any
type Foo struct {
Type string `json:"type"`
X bool `json:"x,omitempty"`
}
type Bar struct {
Type string `json:"type"`
X int64 `json:"x,omitempty"`
}
Although the type T should be linked closely with the Foo and Bar types, it
is not.
It would be better if gengotypes could look at the schemas,
see that they're discriminated with the type field and generate Go code
that looks for the field at json umarshal time and creates the correct
struct type.
The cuediscrim package is a step in that direction.
