Chigraph, pronunced chai-graph, is a new systems programming language. It's fast. It's scalable. And, more importantly, it's easy to learn. How does it achieve such goals? By scrapping the age-old standard of text (not entirely though).
Chigraph is made up of three components:
Chigraphgui is the graphical user interface for writing chigraph modules, written in Qt5 and KDE Frameworks 5. It's cross-platform, easy to use, and simple.
chi is the command line interface to chigraph. It lets you compile and run chigraph modules:
$ pwd
~/chigrpah/src/
$ chi get github.com/russelltg/hellochigraph/hello/main # download it
$ cd github.com/russelltg/hellochigraph/hello/main
$ chi run main.chimod # run it
Hello World!
libchigraph is the chigraph library that provides all functions for chigraph clients, like code generation, graph representation, etc. Want to compile a chigraph module using libchigraph? (documentation)
#include <chi/Context.hpp>
int main() {
chi::Contxt myContext{"/path/to/workspace"};
// download and load the module
myContxt.loadModule("github.com/russelltg/hellochigraph/hello/main", chi::LoadOptions::FetchDependencies);
// compile it
llvm::Module* mod;
myContxt.compileModule("github.com/russelltg/hellochigraph", &mod);
}
And tada, you have yourself a llvm::Module
to do whatever you wish to. It'll have all it's dependencies linked in and a main function waiting to run.
libchigraphdebugger is a library that makes it easy to implement chigraph debuggers. See the Debugger
documentation for more details.
It's free! Chigraph is licensed under the Apache License 2.0 so anyone can use it for free, even in proprietary settings (solong you attribute me)
API sDocumentation (generated by doxygen) is hosted on github pages, here.
Installers and appimages are avaliable from the releases page (coming soon) for those who don't want to build from sources.
See the guide on building from source
