second-order-matching v1.1.0

Second-Order Matching

An implementation of the Huet-Lang algorithm in JavaScript

Usage

• Install with npm i second-order-matching.
• Detailed source code docs are here.

Current state (January 2021)

• As far as the rather extensive test suite has revealed, this module works as intended.
• The code assumes you want to use OpenMath expressions by default, but you can import just the matching portion of the code and provide your own expression class if you are willing to write a thin API to connect your class to this package. See the docs linked to above for details.
• To-do list of small remaining tasks.

Developing

1. Clone/download the repo and set up with npm install.
2. After making changes, run npm test to ensure they didn't break anything. (And, of course, add tests of any new functionality.)
3. If changes were made to source code documentation, run npm run docs to rebuild the docs, which are also part of the repo, because they are served online by GitHub, as you can see at the link above.
