Jsonpiler - JSON Syntax Programming Language

Jsonpiler is a compiler for the JSON syntax programming language and its compiler.

This program converts a JSON-based program to GNU assembly, compiles it, and executes the result.

What's New

  • Added new function: not, xor, or, and and.
  • The built-in functions have become bloated and have been split into multiple files.
  • Changed bool type memory area from 1bit to 1byte due to expected large performance degradation due to instruction bloat
  • Intuitive function argument validation.
  • Added new function: if
  • Fixed an issue in version 0.1.6 where docs.rs documents were sometimes not generated, and removed alternative documents that were no longer needed.
  • Change space characters around instructions in the generated assembly to tab characters.
  • Removed documentation comments with little content.
  • Added Japanese version to changelog and README.md.

Project History and Plans

Prerequisites

Make sure the following tools are installed and available in your PATH environment variable:

  • ld (from MinGW-w64)
  • as (from MinGW-w64)

The following DLLs must be present in C:\Windows\System32\ for the program to work correctly:

  • kernel32.dll
  • user32.dll
  • ucrtbase.dll

Installation & Usage

cargo install jsonpiler
jsonpiler (input_json_file (UTF-8)) [arguments of .exe ...]

Replace (input_json_file) with the actual JSON file you want to compile.

Example

Examples

{ "=": ["a", "title"], "message": [{"$": "a"}, "345"] }

Execution order:

The jsonpiler code consists of a single JSON object.

Expressions are evaluated sequentially.

The variable "a" is assigned the string "title" using "=".

A message box appears with the title (from the variable "a") and the body "345" as specified by "message".

The program returns the integer ID of the button pressed in the message box (currently only 1 is supported, which corresponds to IDOK in C/C++), as the final value of the {} block.

Error or warning message format

{ "message": ["title", { "$": "doesn't_exist" }] }

Compilation error: Undefined variables: `doesn't_exist`
Error occurred on line: 1
Error position:
{ "message": ["title", { "$": "doesn't_exist" }] }
