### How to generate
First, clone the [lemmy-js-client](https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-js-client) repo at whatever version you need:
2023-01-07 23:15:49 +00:00
```bash
git clone https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-js-client -b 0.18.3
```
Inside it, build the JSON docs file:
```bash
npm run docs -- --json docs.json
2023-01-07 23:15:49 +00:00
```
Next, build the generator:
2023-01-07 23:15:49 +00:00
```bash
go build ./cmd/gen
2023-01-07 23:15:49 +00:00
```
Remove all the existing generated code:
```bash
rm **/*.gen.go
```
Execute the generator:
```bash
./gen -json-file <path_to_docs.json> -out-dir .
2023-01-07 23:15:49 +00:00
```
And that's it! Your generated code should be ready for use.
