A simple interpreted language written in Rust.

Here is an example for Blinklet script, full example is in example/main.k:

# This is a comment.

# Let's start with a hello world.
println 'Hello world'

# Declaring variables
var text 'Some text.'
var number 41
var bool true
var nothing null

# Print out the variables
println 'number: `number`'

# Conditional statements
when true
    println 'It is true! The code executes.'

when false
    println 'It is false! The code will not execute.'

# List
var numbers
    list 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

var length-of-numbers
    list-length numbers

println 'Length of numbers: `length-of-numbers`'

# Table
var person
    table
        var name 'Mr. Krab'
        var age 29

println 'person: `person`'

var person-age
    person
        return age

println 'person age: `person-age`'

# Closure
var say-hello
    closure
        println 'Hi guys!'

say-hello

# Extending table
var better-person
    person
        set name 'Better Mr. Krab'
        set age 30

        var be-good
            closure
                println 'I am definitely a good guy!'

better-person
    be-good

Command is essentially builtin function for Blinklet. Here demonstrates the notation for explaining command that will be used throughout the wiki.

Here is an example:

command <identifier> <...identifiers> {mandatory-value} {...mandatory-values} [optional-value] [...optional-values] @commands

add {left-hand-side} {...right-hand-sides}

Returns the summation of left-hand-side with right-hand-sides

sub {left-hand-side} {...right-hand-sides}

Subtract left-hand-side with right-hand-sides and return the result.

mul {left-hand-side} {...right-hand-sides}

Return the multiplication of left-hand-side with right-hand-sides

div {left-hand-side} {...right-hand-sides}

Divide left-hand-side with right-hand-sides, return the result.

eq {left-hand-side} {...right-hand-sides}

Check if left-hand-side is equal with right-hand-sides, return true if true.

g {left-hand-side} {...right-hand-sides}

Check if left-hand-side is greater than right-hand-sides, return true if true.

ge {left-hand-side} {...right-hand-sides}

Check if left-hand-side is greater or equal to right-hand-sides, return true if true.

l {left-hand-side} {...right-hand-sides}

Check if left-hand-side is less than right-hand-sides, return true if true.

le {left-hand-side} {...right-hand-sides}

Check if left-hand-side is less or equal to right-hand-sides, return true if true.

list [...elements]

Make a list out of the elements given.

list-get {list} {index}

Return the indexth element of the list.

list-length {list}

Return the length of the list.

list-pop {list}

Remove the last element of the list and return it.

list-push {list} {...elements}

Push the elements at the back of the list.

make-list-iter {list}

Make an iterator for the list.

import {script-path}

Execute the script at script-path. It will return the result of the execution.

when {value} @commands

Run the @commands if value is true.

while <identifier> {value} @commands

Assign value to variable identifier. Repeatedly run the @commands until value is false. It can be controlled by continue and break.

break

Break out loops.

continue

Continue to the next iteration of the loop.

closure @commands

Returns a callable closure.

parameter <...parameter-names>

Retreive parameters and assign it to parameter-names.

return [value]

Stop execution and return value.

print [...values]

Print values.

println [...values]

Print values with new line after print.

var <identifier> {value}

Declare a variable with the name identifier and initialize it with the value value.

set <variable> {value}

Set given variable with value. The variable must be declared lexically.

table @commands

Create a table and execute command on it, return the result of execution.

console @commands

Execute commands in system console. The values passed into the system commands are evaluated.

duplicate {value}

Deep clone the value and return the clone.

assert {success} {message}

If success is false, raise error with message as error message.
