Generate bindings for C++ code using clang (python bindings) and pybind11

Description

The clang-bind is a project to generate python bindings for C++ code using clang python bindings and pybind11.

Dependencies

C++

libclang

wget -O - https://apt.llvm.org/llvm-snapshot.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
echo 'deb http://apt.llvm.org/bionic/ llvm-toolchain-bionic-11 main' | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
echo 'deb-src http://apt.llvm.org/bionic/ llvm-toolchain-bionic-11 main' | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y libclang-11-dev python3-clang-11

Python

pip install -r requirements.txt

Demonstration

1. Go to tests/test_project/ folder
2. Create a build folder
3. Run cmake ..
4. Run make -j$(nproc)
5. Run python ../../../clang_bind/parse.py --com ./ ../src/simple.cpp
6. Run python ../../../clang_bind/generate.py --com json/src/simple.json

The binding code will be available in pybind11-gen/src folder.
