PyreScript

It’s a Python backend for PureScript!

Inspired by [Purescript-to-Python][1].

Very Alpha software here!

Installation

You’ll need [stack][2].

After installing [stack][2]. You should be able to:

stack build

Usage

Assuming all went well you can start compiling files.

stack exec pysc <FILE>

Not much to currently see, but it will compile a simple file like:

module Foo where

infixl 4 wat as +

wat :: forall a b. a -> b -> a
wat x _ =  x

foo :: Int
foo = 1 + 2

bar :: Boolean
bar = true

baz :: Boolean
baz = false

to a file like:

# Generated by pysc version 0.9.1.0

wat = lambda x:     lambda v:         x
foo = wat(1)(2)
baz = False
bar = True
__all__ = [ "bar", "baz", "foo", "wat" ]

Based on that output, there’s clearly lots of work to actually be done :).

The file structure looks like:

output
└── Foo
    ├── externs.json
    └── __init__.py

So, you should be able to fire up a python interpreter and use the compiled file:

➜  pyrescript git:(master) ipython
