How to use the resultant string as case class any example pls

/*we can use below code directly it will return string instead of writing into file we can get string in a variable */

import org.apache.spark.sql.types._

class SchemaToCaseClassWriter {
type TypeConverter = DataType => String

def write(schema: StructType, className: String): String = {
run(schema, className)
}

private def run(schema: StructType, className: String): String = {
def genField(field: StructField): String = {
val converter = defaultTypeConverter(field.name)
val dataType = converter(field.dataType)
field match {
case x if x.nullable => s" ${field.name}: Option[$dataType]"
case _ => s" ${field.name}: $dataType"
}
}

val fieldsStr = schema.map(genField).mkString(",\n  ")
val schemaClass =
  s"""case class $className (
     |  $fieldsStr
     |)
     |
     |""".stripMargin
schemaClass

}

private def defaultTypeConverter(colName: String): TypeConverter = {
val converter: TypeConverter = {
case _: ByteType => "Byte"
case _: ShortType => "Short"
case _: IntegerType => "Int"
case _: LongType => "Long"
case _: FloatType => "Float"
case _: DoubleType => "Double"
case _: DecimalType => "java.math.BigDecimal"
case _: StringType => "String"
case _: BinaryType => "Array[Byte]"
case _: BooleanType => "Boolean"
case _: TimestampType => "java.sql.Timestamp"
case _: DateType => "java.sql.Date"
case t: ArrayType =>
val e = t match {
case ArrayType(elementType, _) => elementType
}
s"Seq[${defaultTypeConverter(colName)(e)}]"
case _: MapType => "scala.collection.Map"
case t: StructType =>
run(t, colName.capitalize)
colName.capitalize
case _ => "String"
}
converter
}
}

val writer = new SchemaToCaseClassWriter()
val schema = // Your StructType schema
val className = "MyClass"
val caseClassString = writer.write(schema, className)
println(caseClassString) // Output the generated case class string
