Hi. Thanks for the compliment. Not too long ago, I was manually scraping the code off the website and saving it in individual files inside my projects. It became time consuming, especially when a specification like PCAP has so many recursive dependencies. So I developed a small utility to automate the entirety of it.
I immediately saw the potential in the new tool I developed and began improving my tool so that it will:
This makes it easy to include, modify, and share official and community created kaitai-struct specifications in individual projects.
The only really valuable use case I can imagine is downloading pre-transpiled sources.
That's a great suggestion! However, development might be a bit slow since I am working on other projects.
Hello. Thanks for the tool. But what is the rationale for such a tool? Isn't it easier to download from the official git repo instead, as I do in my https://github.com/kaitaiStructCompile/kaitaiStructCompile.repo ?
The only really valuable use case I can imagine is downloading pre-transpiled sources. But it is not yet implemented. I'd create a separate bug for it.
