There are two ways we do that, e.g. with a language-specific build process integration (e.g. in java, swift, dart/flutter) or with a standalone tool that does code generation (go, c, c++). \r\n\r\nIs there something like [dart source_gen](https://pub.dev/packages/source_gen) that would help with easy-to-use python code generation? \r\nIf there isn't, then adding \"FBS-\u003epython\" generation support to [objectbox-generator](https://github.com/objectbox/objectbox-generator) would be an option as well.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/vaind","@type":"Person","name":"vaind"},"datePublished":"2020-09-09T07:58:25.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":2},"url":"https://github.com/4/objectbox-python/issues/4"}
