Documentation

Hopper

A simple JavaScript AST-walking interpreter for the Grace programming language.

Command-line

hopper [FILENAME]

Accepts an optional source file as an argument. If left off, the interactive REPL will load instead. Use the -h flag for information about extra arguments.

Library

var hopper = require("hopper");

hopper.interpret(grace, callback);

The interpret method accepts Grace code as a string, and a Node style callback.

In order to interpret multiple chunks of code with preserved state, construct a new Interpreter and invoke interpret on that instead.

You can also directly load and interpret an external module.

hopper.load(path, callback);

Module resolution is controlled by an optional module loader argument, with a default that uses the Node.js file system interface.
