What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenge of accessing data within BinaryData fields in generated Java models when those fields represent TypeSpec union types, providing a more ergonomic and type-safe way to interact with them.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Typed Getters and Setters: Replaces generic BinaryData accessors with specific methods for each union variant (e.g., getString(), getSomeModel(), setSomeModel(SomeModel value)).
  • Ergonomic Access: Simplifies interacting with union types, avoiding manual serialization/deserialization of BinaryData.
  • Use Case: When a generated Java model has a field like BinaryData myField that can be either a String or a MyModel object, this skill adds methods like getMyFieldAsString() and setMyField(MyModel value) for cleaner code.

Quick Start

Use the union-type-wrappers skill to add typed getters and setters for the BinaryData field 'myField' in the generated Java model.
