@axel669/teascript v0.22.13

TeaScript

For people who don't like coffee.

This is an updated language idea with brand new syntax that is not compatible with the old TeaScript, which is no longer maintained.

Installation

Yarn

yarn add @axel669/teascript

NPM

npm i @axel669/teascript

API

const tea = require("@axel669/teascript")

const result = await tea(
    sourceCode,
    options = {
        target?: "es6" | "browser"
    }
)
if (result instanceof Error) {
    //  do something with the error
}
const { code, ast } = result

CLI Usage

Run Script

tea file <input file> <options>

Transpile File

tea file <input file> <dest file> <options>
tea file -c <input file> <options>

Transpile Directory

tea file -d <input dir> <dest dir> <options>

CLI Options

-c, -compile
Output file will be in the same dir as the source file

-d, -dir
Compile directory with output file structure mirroring source directory

-target=es6|node
Code output target. es6 will use import statements for the built-in functions,
browser will inline the built-in functions, any other value (or omitting) will
insert require calls.

Browser Usage

Include the script build/browser-tea.js on the page or use the CDN link. The browser script adds the teascript function to the global scope, and relies on the browser version of prettier.

<script src="https://unpkg.com/prettier@2.5.1/standalone.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/prettier@2.5.1/parser-babel.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/axel669/teascript@v0.22.9/dist/browser-tea.js"></script>

TODO

See the language ref (in the ref folder) for the future plans.
