Automagically understands how to produce an interface from the command line into a Go function. Sometimes, magic is just someone spending more time on something than anyone else might reasonably expect. -Teller Demo Installation Note: gorram depends on having a working go environment to function, since it dynamically analyzes go code in the stdlib and in your GOPATH. Usage Examples Pretty print JSON: Calculate a sha256 sum: How it works The first time you run Gorram with a specific function name, Gorram analyzes the package function and generates a file for use with go run . Gorram intelligently converts stdin and/or cli arguments into arguments for the function. Output is converted similarly to stdout. The code is cached in a local directory so that later runs don't incur the generation overhead. Heuristics By default, Gorram just turns CLI args into function args and prints out the return value of a function using fmt's %v. However, there are some special heuristics that it uses to be smarter about inputs and outputs, based on common go idioms. For example: Gorram understands functions that take a single slice of bytes (or an io.Reader) should read from stdin, or if an argument is specified, the argument is treated as a filename to be read. Return values that are an array of bytes are understood to be intended to be printed with fmt's %x, so that you get 2c37424d58 instead of [44 55 66 77 88] .
