HolyC-for-Linux

run HolyC on Linux secularly

Build Status PyPI version

Disclaimer

This tool is in super-hella-mega alpha stage. If you use this, you will die. Or worse, your current operating system will be replaced with TempleOS. I've only tested this on 3.7-dev.

Install

pip install secularize

Translate

The primary use is to translate holyc to c. Do this with: secularize examples/test.hc

this turns examples/test.hc

F64 *s = 3;

U0 test(I16 a, U8 b, F64 c) {
  Print("hello");
}

F64 pest(I8 d) {
  Print("nothing");
}

Print("%s %s", "hello", "world");
I64 b = 2.000;

into examples/test.c

void test(short a, unsigned char b, double c)
{
  printf("hello");
}

double pest(char d)
{
  printf("nothing");
}

int main()
{
  double* s = 3;
  printf("%s %s", "hello", "world");
  long b = 2.0;
}

Debugging

To add a feature, it's useful to get the AST of an expected target. To do this, write the C file you're trying to translate to, then run secularize dump-ast name-of-file.c. This will pretty print the AST to json.

$ cat examples/math.c
int main()
{
  long a = 3;
  long b = 2;
}

$ secularize dump-ast examples/math.c
