[xirzec]

MVP Client (best autogenerated SDKs)

Management SDK affecting work

• Support for multiple swagger input (multiple clients in one package) Support for multiple swagger input (multiple clients in one package)  #1127
• Multi Api-version support Clarify multi api-version support requirements #1128
• Profile support - custom packages with models from many services (look into customer reqs) Profile support - custom packages with models from many services #1129
• Update metadata generation to be more modern / follow template conventions for track2 / have packages fit better into rush monorepo Metadata generated by generate-metadata: true is old/stale #1130

MVP work for the next semester

• Support additionalProperties as Generics (as opt-in!) [v6] Feature: Model additionalProperties as a generic #604
• Improve names of generated types Better heuristics for generated names #1131
• Fix issue with modeling inheritance Fix issue with modeling inheritence #1132
• Client-let support (e.g. binding common params for sub-clients/operation groups) Support for clientlets (partial application of common parameters in operation groups) #1133
• Merge ClientContext and Client types to reduce inheritance (or make the Client type the hand-authored one to support MVP) Merge generated Client and ClientContext together #1134
• CoreV2: client options types should extend CommonClientOptions instead of ServiceClientOptions Corev2: client options types should extend CommonClientOptions instead of ServiceClientOptions  #1135
• Tracing support Update Tracing generation #892 (Jose)
• Swagger syntax for dealing with LRO (e.g. separate paths for creating / polling LROs, other LRO configuration) Add Swagger syntax for configuring LROs #1136
• LROs and Paging improvements Paging LROs should return a poller #944

MVP-specific Work

• Better package generation support (interactive, configurable), integrates with Rush better. (Jeff)
• Investigate: Allow convenience additions by inheritance (Jose)
• Ability to suppress or make operations protected on the base type (and potentially rename to avoid taking good names) (Jose)

Broader AutoRest Work

• Support anyOf/oneOf Support anyOf/oneOf autorest#4118

Generator Output Improvements

• Extend the common package tsconfig Extend tsconfig.json in the new v6 generator #809
• Regenerate all SDKs (or subset based on issues w/ specific generated code version)
• Synchronize version of generator used across autogenerated SDKs
• Automatically updating package.json w/ merging instead of replacing (add deps, etc)
• Ability to split single swagger into multiple clients, replace operation groups with separate clients
• Avoid aliasing primitive types (e.g. type Answer = string) [ look into if this is needed ]
