bynk-render

The shared diagnostic-rendering layer for the Bynk compiler.

Given a slice of bynk_syntax::CompileError plus the source and a filename, it produces the human and machine forms of a Bynk diagnostic:

• human — rich, source-pointing ariadne output (with a colourless variant for byte-stable transcripts),
• short — one terse path:line:col: severity[category]: message line per error, the format the editor problem-matcher parses, and
• json — the structured line form the same span/severity data feeds for machine consumers.

Every Bynk front-end renders through this one crate, so the CLI, the project builder, and the editor all display the same error identically. The crate is a pure presentation layer: it depends on bynk-syntax only (plus ariadne) and never sees the checker or emitter — structured diagnostics flow down into it, never the other way.

Where it sits

bynk-syntax  ◀── bynk-render · bynk-fmt · bynk-check ◀── bynk-emit ◀── bynk-ide

The bynkc, bynk, and bynk-lsp binaries are front-ends over this set. Most users see this crate's output through the bynkc / bynk CLIs rather than depending on it directly.

Use

[dependencies]
bynk-render = "0.120"

// `errors: &[bynk_syntax::CompileError]`, with the source and a label.
bynk_render::print_errors(errors, source, filename);          // ariadne, to stderr
let short = bynk_render::render_errors_short(errors, source, filename);
