It works quite well in utop with #require "ppx_jane" but
I added (preprocess (pps ppx_jane))
in my dune file which looks like this:
(library
(preprocess (pps ppx_jane))
(name raftml)
(modules raft rpc types)
(libraries
core
core_unix
proto
grpc
grpc-lwt
ocaml-protoc
lwt
lwt.unix
h2
h2-lwt-unix
domainslib
yojson
ppx_jane
ppx_sexp_conv
ppx_deriving_yojson
ppx_deriving
ppx_deriving_yojson.runtime))
And my types are like this:
type log = {
mutable command: string;
mutable term: int32;
mutable index: int32
} [@@deriving sexp]
I call sexp_of_log
in my code like this:
let persist () = Out_channel.write_all "file_name" ~data:(Sexp.to_string (sexp_of_log { command = "hello"; term = (10l); index = (24l); }))
And there's an error when I run dune build
: Unbound value "string_of_sexp"
I solved this by adding:
open Sexplib.Std
At the top of the file that has the record types deriving sexp
.
