Simple Javascript Compiler using using Golang

The purpose of this project was to create a simple Javascript comiler from scratch using Golang. It's not effecient or optimized, and has very small lexicon, but it works!

It uses the code inside the file src/example.lg to output working javascript function.

Available Functionality

• Handles multiple function declarations
• Ability to pass in zero, one, or multiple arguments to a function
• Function body can evaluate Integers, function calls, and addition operations
• Additon Operations can evalulate Varibles or Integer values

Sample Source Code Syntax

def f(x,y)
    add(x,y)
end

def add(x, y)
    x + y
end

Sample Output

function f(x,y) { return add(x,y) };
function add(x,y) { return x+y };
function tacos() { return 1 };
console.log(f(1,2));

NOTE: Currently, there's no input to change values or call created functions. There is a placeholder console.log(f(1,2)) to run the generated code.

Running The Code

To see the compiled JS code, from the root directory: go run ./src/compiler.go To see the comipled JS code execute, from the root directory: go run ./src/compiler.go | node

#Next

• Add other operators
• Add ability to use function calls in operations
