Sidex

A data modeling language for cross-stack data exchange.

Sidex CLI Crate Tests Docs License: MIT/Apache

🚧 WORK IN PROGRESS 🚧

Sidex is still under construction. In particular, the functionality described here may not exist yet, may change considerably in the future, or may even be completely abandoned at a later point in time. We are actively working on the design, features, and vision of Sidex. ⚠️

Sidex is a format- and language-agnostic data modeling language with a focus on type safety, extensibility, and developer ergonomics. Sidex aims to simplify data exchange between different programming languages and platforms via potentially multiple interchange formats and storage backends.

💡 Idea: Define your data model once with Sidex and then generate code for different languages and interchange formats from this single ground truth.

Sidex's type system and definition language are inspired by Rust. With custom attributes, similar to Rust's attributes, the possibilities for code generation become almost limitless. You can easily develop your own code generator or extend an existing one to fit your needs.

✨ Features

  • Schema-first definition of data structures.
  • Designed for format- and language-agnostic definitions.
  • Modern algebraic data types and non-null by default.
  • Extensible with user-defined opaque types.
  • Support for generics, recursive types, and custom attributes.
  • Language server and VS Code extension for increased productivity.
  • Out-of-the-box support for Rust, TypeScript, Python, and JSON Schema.
