JSON TO AL CONVERTER

Since I am very lazy and I didn’t find any AL code generator I decided to develop it on my own.

My app gets a JSON file as input and, for each entity present, it automatically generates three files :

1) the AL table ;

2) the AL page ;

3) the AL API page ;

The AL code is SaaS/Cloud ready (I’m not sure if it works on OnPremise, but it should) . It is targeting the current Business Central version : 17.2. I am planning to migrate it as a Visual Studio extension soon.

It’s really simple to use, you have a demo video below.

EXECUTABLE

If you don’t want to compile the VS2019 solution you can get the application executable from here:

http://www.katanet.it/download/JsonToAlConverter.zip

It requires framework installed.
