Write, lint, and compile CrossFit workouts (WODs) with a simple language and CLI. Export JSON/ICS, build a movements catalog, and get a quick timeline.
Project description
WODCraft
English | Français
WODCraft is a Domain‑Specific Language (DSL) to describe, validate, and export Workouts of the Day (WODs). It ships a single, unified CLI to parse, lint, compile sessions, and export (JSON/ICS), with support for tracks and gender through a movements catalog.
Developer Quickstart
from wodcraft import sdk
text = """
session "S" { components {} }
"""
# Validate
ok, err = sdk.validate(text)
if not ok:
raise ValueError(err)
# Parse → AST (dict)
ast = sdk.parse(text)
# Compile first session (modules resolved from ./modules)
compiled = sdk.compile_session(text, modules_path="modules")
# Optional: export ICS and aggregate team results
ics_str = sdk.export_ics(compiled) # if session has exports.ics
agg = sdk.results(text, modules_path="modules")
# Simple timeline summary
timeline = sdk.run(text, modules_path="modules")
Why
- Standardize how WODs are written, readable by coaches and tools.
- Automate useful formats: timer timeline, calendar, web, API.
- Normalize variants (tracks, dual reps/cals/loads) via a JSON catalog.
- Provide a solid base for AI agents to analyze/generate WODs.
DSL at a Glance
WOD "Team Mixer"
TEAM 2
TRACKS [RX, INTERMEDIATE, SCALED]
CAP 20:00
BUYIN {
400m run;
}
BLOCK AMRAP 12:00 WORK split:any {
12 wall_balls @9kg SYNC;
10 box_jumps @24in;
200m run;
}
CASHOUT {
50 double_unders @each;
}
The full grammar and rules are in WODCraft_spec.md (source of truth).
Features
🔍 Analysis & Validation
- Parser → structured JSON AST with enhanced error messages
- Linter → CrossFit-specific semantic validation:
- ✅ Syntax errors with line/column + suggestions
- ⚠️ Safety warnings (heavy loads, high-rep deadlifts)
- 📊 WOD structure analysis (movement balance, time domains)
- 🏃 Movement semantics (EMOM feasibility, REST validation)
- Intelligent caching → 80%+ faster recompilation
⚙️ Compilation & Resolution
- Module system → import/override with versioning
- Session compilation → resolve components to executable JSON
- Track/Gender resolution → applies variants from movements catalog
- Team aggregation → AMRAP/ForTime/MaxLoad scoring
📤 Export & Timeline
- Timeline generation → coach-friendly workout summaries
- Export formats → JSON, ICS calendar, HTML
- Results aggregation → team performance analytics
Quick Setup
- Python 3 recommended. Isolated env:
make install(creates.venvand installsrequirements.txt)- or
pip install -r requirements.txt
CLI Usage (unified)
🔍 Analysis & Validation (Development)
# Lint: Static analysis with CrossFit-specific validation
wodc lint examples/wod/progressive_farmer.wod
# ✓ Checks syntax, structure, movement semantics
# ✓ Reports warnings for unsafe loads, impossible timing
# ✓ Suggests improvements for coaching
# Parse: Convert to structured AST (debugging)
wodc parse examples/language/team_realized_session.wod
⚙️ Compilation & Export (Production)
# Session: Resolve imports & compile to executable JSON
wodc session examples/language/team_realized_session.wod --modules-path modules --format json
# Results: Aggregate team performance data
wodc results examples/language/team_realized_session.wod --modules-path modules
# Run: Generate timeline summary for coaches
wodc run examples/language/team_realized_session.wod --modules-path modules
🛠️ Utilities
# Build movements catalog
wodc catalog build
# Validate basic syntax (fast check)
wodc validate examples/language/team_realized_session.wod
When to Use What?
| Command | Purpose | Use Case |
|---|---|---|
wodc lint |
Static analysis | Development: Catch errors, validate CrossFit logic |
wodc session |
Compile to JSON/ICS | Production: Generate final formats for apps |
wodc run |
Timeline generation | Coaching: Quick workout overview |
wodc results |
Team aggregation | Analysis: Calculate team performance |
Example: Lint vs Compile Workflow
# 1. During development: Lint for immediate feedback
$ wodc lint my_wod.wod
WARNING: Heavy deadlifts (150kg) - verify safety progression
INFO: Single movement WOD - consider pacing options
✓ Valid WODCraft syntax
# 2. For production: Compile to executable formats
$ wodc session my_session.wod --format json
{
"session": {
"title": "Strength Focus",
"components": { ... },
"timeline": [ ... ]
}
}
# 3. For coaching: Get quick timeline
$ wodc run my_session.wod
Session: Strength Focus
- Warmup: Dynamic Movement — 300s
- Strength: Back Squat (5x5) — 1200s
- WOD: AMRAP 12:00 (Push-ups, Air Squats) — 720s
Total: 2220s (37 minutes)
Makefile shortcuts: make help (venv, install, test, catalog-build, vnext-validate, vnext-session, vnext-results, build-dist).
Developer Integration
- Install:
pip install wodcraft - Import the SDK:
from wodcraft import sdk - Common usage:
from pathlib import Path
from wodcraft import sdk
text = Path("examples/language/team_realized_session.wod").read_text()
# Validate
ok, err = sdk.validate(text)
if not ok:
raise ValueError(err)
# Parse to AST (dict)
ast = sdk.parse(text)
# Compile the first session (resolve modules from ./modules)
compiled = sdk.compile_session(text, modules_path="modules")
# Export ICS (requires exports.ics in the session)
ics_str = sdk.export_ics(compiled)
# Aggregate team realized results if present
agg = sdk.results(text, modules_path="modules")
# Produce a simple timeline summary
timeline = sdk.run(text, modules_path="modules")
The sdk facade provides a stable surface. For advanced use, lower-level APIs are available under wodcraft.lang.core.
Tests
- Run:
make testorpytest -q - Coverage includes: parser, lint (E/W), resolution (catalog/gender), timeline, formatter.
Spec and Architecture
- DSL spec: see
WODCraft_spec.md. - Unified CLI:
src/wodcraft/cli.py(entrypointwodc). - Language core façade:
src/wodcraft/lang/core.py. - Canonical grammar/transformer:
wodc_vnext/core.py(being migrated undersrc/). - Examples under
examples/and modules undermodules/. Movements catalog atdata/movements_catalog.json.
Editor Support
- VS Code/Windsurf extension (local): see
editor/wodcraft-vscode/for syntax highlighting and snippets. - Quick dev run:
code --extensionDevelopmentPath=./editor/wodcraft-vscode .
Examples (Language / Programming)
examples/language/programming_plan.wod: minimal “Coach Programming” blockexamples/language/team_realized_session.wod: session with team + realized events for aggregation
Roadmap
- Advanced formatter (indentation/blocks), macros and shorthands (
21-15-9). - Versioned grammar and canonical
wodc fmt. - Executable timer for gym use.
Contributing
- Read
AGENTS.md(conventions, structure, commands). - Open focused PRs with CLI examples and export artifacts.
