arkscript-lang/std

ArkScript standard library

std's Issues

Add a CI

First idea

It should:

• checkout Ark
• update all the submodules
• link the last commit of this repo as the lib/std of Ark (rm -r lib/std && ln -s our/copy Ark/lib/std should be good enough)
• build ark with the console module
• launch the tests only in the std/ folder

Other idea

It should:

• download latest Ark release
• unzip the downloaded release
• launch the tests only on the std/ folder

str:split should be able to take multichar separators

Implement forAll, some/any on lists

Should match a given condition (function)

• forAll, all elements must match
• some/any (I'm not sure how to name it), at least one must match

Redo the readme

We are currently listing functions and their brief documentation but it's useless since this is now synchronized with the website: https://arkscript-lang.github.io/std/

Add a tests/ folder with all the standard library tests

Will make it easier for us to handle the tests of the language VS the tests of the standard library

Finish the documentation of each function of the lib

More tests

As stated in ArkScript-lang/Ark#260, we need more tests.

String.ark: add str:join to create a string from a list of string, with a given delimiter

Prototype

(let str:join (fun (_L _sep) {
    (mut _output "")
    (mut _idx 0)
    (let _end (len _L))
    (while (< _idx _end) {
        (set _output (+ _output (toString (@ _L _idx))))
        (set _idx (+ 1 _idx))
    })

    _output
}))

OS.ark issues

- add on the README.md
- update because we have a better way to retrieve the output of a sys call

• make it work on linux and windows

Enhance CI

CI should either

• build Ark from the latest buildable commit on dev,
• or download an artifact generated by a CI on the core repository,

so that we have the latest functionnalities available to us on this CI (the CI on the core repository is running the std lib tests with the latest commit but here we use the latest release).

If we go with option 2, we'll have to update a linux CI on the core repository to generate CI artifacts somehow (I know it's possible, but I don't know how it works, nor how we can do that ; I've only read a few things about that on the Internet)

List enhancements

Implement

• dropWhile (we have drop)
• foldLeft/Right
• flatten
• flatMap
