ChavaScript

The ChavaScript language transpiler

https://chavascript.github.io/chavascript

Installation

``bash
npm install chavascript
`

Usage

The chavascript library exposes 3 functions:

- parse(input, options) - which parses a given ChavaScript input string, with optional options according to acorn options object.
- transpile(input, options) - which translates the given ChavaScript input string to JavaScript string, with optional options according to acorn options object.
- run(input, options) - which executes the given ChavaScript input string, with optional options according to acorn options object.

Examples:

`javascript
const chavascript = require("chavascript")

const code =
יכולת אחד() {
יהי א = 12;
בקרה.תעד(א);
}
;
const ast = chavascript.parse(code);
console.log(JSON.stringify(ast, null, " "));
`

will produce an abstract syntax tree of the given input:

`javascript
const chavascript = require("chavascript")

const code =
יכולת אחד() {
יהי א = 12;
בקרה.תעד(א);
}
;
const generated = chavascript.transpile(code);
console.log(generated);

`

will produce and following output:

`
function ahd() {
let a = 12;
console.log(a);
}
`

and

`javascript
const chavascript = require("chavascript")

const code =
יכולת אחד() {
יהי א = 12;
בקרה.תעד(א);
}
אחד();
;
chavascript.run(code);
`

will produce and following output:

`
12
