About
Archium-PY is a simple TypeScript to Python transpiler.
Archium-PY uses Acorn.js to parse JavaScript into an AST, then it interprets this tree to translate it into the corresponding Python code. Only TypeScript files may be provided, and they will be compiled using the TypeScript compiler API before transpiled into Python.
Using Python Libraries
Native Python libraries must have an acceptable .d.ts file to be used properly. Familiarize yourself with the library API, and then create the TypeScript declaration file.
Configuration
Archium-PY will automatically look for an apyconfig.json file in your current working directory. This file will detail where you want the generated Python files to go, and where your entry file is located.
It should look something like this:
{
"compilerOptions": {
"outDir": "@archium/out",
"entry": "path/to/your/entry/file.ts"
}
}Pylib
Pylib is a library of functions and variables that allow you to use common Python keywords and functions from within JavaScript.
It can be imported using the two ways below:
import pylib from "pylib";
import py from "pylib";A direct path cannot be used, pylib must be imported from pylib. Initially running the compiler will generate an @archium/pylib folder. Add the following to your tsconfig.json file to make importing from "pylib" work properly:
"paths": {
"pylib": ["./@archium/pylib"]
}
