Automated OpenAPI/CDDL generator

[mkschreder]

It would be very useful to have an automated code generator that can generate the encoder and decoder code from structured data model. There are currently code generators like zcbor cddl tool that can generate zcbor encoder/decoder from a CDDL model. In web development we also have similar concept provided by OpenAPI tooling.

What is the plan to adopt any of these for QCBOR?

Personally I would prefer an OpenAPI generator because it would allow generating not only C code but also encoders and decoders for other languages from the same model definition.

What do you guys think?

Sounds nice and would be a good addition, but it's very unlikely I'll work on it anytime soon. I have too much to do on QCBOR and lots of other projects.

If someone else took it on, I think I could be supportive. For example, if some new functions where desired.
