generateCvProps is almost useless

[studentutu]

I've cloned this repo, made a docker build for opencv 4.10 wasm, fixed issue with the generateCvProps as imports and initialization of opencv was incorrect and I finally generated types which were all almost useless
Fix for generateCvProps

const { cv: cvLoader } = require('../.'); // will use index.js and opencv.js

const Module = {};
const cv = cvLoader(Module);

Running it with bash command like so

#!/bin/bash

# assume you are in ./utils
node generateCvProps.js
npx tsc --declaration --allowJs --emitDeclarationOnly --outDir ../types ../types/opencv.ts

Gave me the following output on types:

/** function */
export var IntVector: any;

/** function */
export var CharVector: any;
......

So generateCvProps doesn't even produce interfaces, it just plain key -> values pair with a bit of comment on top of it.
Can you explain how to generate types in production?

We can try to link doxygen docs if we build wasm with it

@echamudi there is actually a pretty good flag in emcc ( opencv for js is build with it) -lembind --emit-tsd which creates typescript .d.ts for files ( not sure how to use it if we need to generate type definitions from cpp whole folder )

I'm currently working on the docker file which should create both openCV.js, opencv_js.wasm and type definitions for it

If you can lend a hand in helping me generate types from emcc, it would be great

@UrielCh could you help with generating types from opencv? Your opencv4nodejs has all the types for opencv, could lend a hand in that? How to generate those types?
