go fmt lr-files

[mariuskimmina]

I noticed that running go fmt ./... in the root directory of the cnquery project would result in a lot of changes in .lr.go files. Are these lr.go files auto generated how have they been manually created? Also what does lr actually mean here?

Hi @mariuskimmina. Excellent question. Historically our MQL resource packs had the code name "Lumi" which was derived from the German word "Mond". lr files are simply lumi resource files. We plan to rename the file extension to mqlr since they represent the MQL resources.

Based on that schema we generate the go boilerplate with the lr compiler in https://github.com/mondoohq/cnquery/blob/main/Makefile#L78-L128. When you add a resource, you just need to run make cnspec/generate and the lr.go files will be generated.
