Demonstrates the typedialog-provisioning-gen tool that generates a complete 7-layer validation architecture for configuration management, supporting multiple input modes and producing TypeDialog forms, Nickel schemas, validators, and orchestration scripts.
Quick Start

Pick Your Input Mode

Mode A: Analyze Cargo.toml (Automatic Detection)
# Auto-detect features from dependencies
typedialog-provisioning-gen cargo \
  --input mode-a-cargo/Cargo.toml \
  --output /tmp/my-provisioning
```text
→ See [`mode-a-cargo/README.md`](mode-a-cargo/) for details

**Mode B: Config File** (Explicit Specification)
```bash
# Define all features in TOML config
typedialog-provisioning-gen config \
  --input mode-b-config/project-spec.toml \
  --output /tmp/my-provisioning
```text
→ See [`mode-b-config/README.md`](mode-b-config/) for details

**Mode C: Interactive Wizard** (Conversational)
```bash
# Step-by-step guidance with AI suggestions
typedialog-provisioning-gen wizard \
  --project my-service \
  --output /tmp/my-provisioning
```text
→ See [`mode-c-wizard/README.md`](mode-c-wizard/) for details

**Mode D: Nickel Schema** (Migration)
```bash
# Convert existing Nickel schema
typedialog-provisioning-gen nickel \
  --input mode-d-nickel/existing-config.ncl \
  --output /tmp/my-provisioning
```text
→ See [`mode-d-nickel/README.md`](mode-d-nickel/) for details

## What Gets Generated

All modes produce the same 7-layer structure:

```text
provisioning/
├── constraints.toml          # Layer 1: Validation bounds (single source of truth)
├── schemas/                  # Layer 2: Type contracts (Nickel)
├── validators/               # Layer 3: Validation logic
├── defaults/                 # Layer 4: Default values
├── fragments/                # Layer 5: TypeDialog forms
├── scripts/                  # Layer 6: Orchestration scripts
└── config.ncl                # Layer 7: Master configuration
```text

→ See [`output-example/README.md`](output-example/) for detailed structure explanation

## Key Features

### ✅ 4 Input Modes
- **Cargo.toml Analysis**: Automatic feature detection from dependencies
- **Config File**: Explicit specification with full control
- **Interactive Wizard**: Conversational guidance with AI suggestions
- **Nickel Schema**: Convert existing Nickel to provisioning structure

### ✅ 7-Layer Validation
- **Constraints** (single source of truth)
- **Schemas** (Nickel type contracts)
- **Validators** (validation logic)
- **Defaults** (sensible defaults)
- **Fragments** (TypeDialog forms)
- **Scripts** (orchestration)
- **Master Config** (integration point)

### ✅ Domain Features
Each mode discovers or defines domain features:

| Feature | Fields | Example |
|---------|--------|---------|
| http_server | bind_address, timeout_seconds | REST API |
| database | host, port, username, password | PostgreSQL, MySQL |
| authentication | jwt_secret, expiry | JWT tokens |
| caching | cache_enabled, ttl | Redis layer |
| monitoring | prometheus_url, retention | Observability |

### ✅ Multiple Field Types
- Text, Number, Password, Confirm
- Select, MultiSelect
- Editor, Date
- RepeatingGroup (arrays)

### ✅ Sensitive Data Handling
Automatic encryption for sensitive fields:
- `age` (modern encryption)
- `sops` (Mozilla SOPS)
- `secretumvault` (integration ready)
- `aws-kms`, `gcp-kms`, `azure-kms`

### ✅ Constraint Interpolation
Single source of truth - define constraints once, use everywhere:
- In validators (Nickel)
- In forms (TypeDialog)
- In documentation
- In validation scripts

## Complete Workflow

### 1. Generate from Cargo.toml
```bash
cd my-rust-service
typedialog-provisioning-gen cargo --output ./provisioning
```text

### 2. Test Form Interactively
```bash
typedialog provisioning/fragments/http_server-section.toml --backend cli
```text

### 3. Validate Configuration
```bash
./provisioning/scripts/validate-nickel.sh < config.ncl
```text

### 4. Use in Application
```rust
let config = nickel::eval_file("provisioning/config.ncl")?;
```text

## Examples by Scenario

### Scenario 1: Existing Rust Project
```bash
# You have a Cargo.toml with dependencies
typedialog-provisioning-gen cargo --output ./infra

# Auto-detects
# - axum → HTTP server config
# - sqlx → database config
# - redis → caching config
# - prometheus → monitoring
```text

Best for: Rust projects, quick setup

### Scenario 2: New Multi-Service Architecture
```bash
# You have a detailed specification
typedialog-provisioning-gen config --input architecture.toml --output ./platform

# Supports
# - Multiple database types
# - Event streaming setup
# - Monitoring configuration
# - Cloud provider selection
```text

Best for: Complex systems, cross-team coordination

### Scenario 3: Interactive Setup
```bash
# You want guidance through the process
typedialog-provisioning-gen wizard --project my-service

# Walks through
# - Project type selection
# - Infrastructure requirements
# - Feature selection
# - Field configuration
# - AI-powered suggestions
```text

Best for: First-time users, exploring options

### Scenario 4: Legacy System Migration
```bash
# You have existing Nickel schemas
typedialog-provisioning-gen nickel --input config.ncl --output ./new-provisioning

# Converts
# - Type definitions → schemas
# - Records → domain features
# - Fields → form fragments
```text

Best for: System modernization, adding forms to existing configs

## Using Generated Artifacts

### TypeDialog Forms
```bash
# Display configuration form
typedialog provisioning/fragments/database-section.toml --backend cli

# Web interface
typedialog-web provisioning/fragments/*.toml --port 3000
```text

### Nickel Validation
```bash
# Validate syntax
./provisioning/scripts/validate-nickel.sh

# Use in config
nickel eval provisioning/config.ncl
```text

### Scripts
```bash
# Master orchestrator
./provisioning/scripts/config.sh

# Format conversion
./provisioning/scripts/json-to-nickel.sh < input.json
./provisioning/scripts/nickel-to-json.sh < config.ncl
```text

### Application Integration
```rust
// Load provisioning config
let config = provisioning::load("provisioning/config.ncl")?;
```text
