KALK

Make simple online calculators based on YAML files

Create a directory where you drop kalk.exe in
In this directory, create a directory "default"
In "default" create an index.yaml file
Run kalk.exe to create the calculate

Status of the Project

Just a fast prototype for now (although functional)

Basic syntax of yaml

The YAML can have multiple calculaters (split with ---) Every calculator has a general, input and output section

Output types can be

number
decimal
round1
round2
...
round5
ceil
floor

number is an integer decimal is a float (default) roundx define the precision point e.g 1,545435 -> round2 -> 1,55 ceil and floor are typical javascript implementations

---
general:
  id: eurodollar
  name: Euro To Dollar
input: 
  - name: euro
    humanName: Euro €
    default: 10
  - name: exchangeRate
    humanName: Exchange Rate
    default: 1.22
output:
  - name: dollar
    humanName: Dollar $
    formula: euro*exchangeRate

MIT, refer to the license file Code is not pretty because it's more a script then a full fledged tool

Why

What the hell is KALK

Kalk is the dutch word for lime, the ingredient in chalk (for writing on blackboards). It's also conveniently the letter c=k in the word calc

Why YAML

Not to reinvent the wheel and to have easy parse and extension capabilities
