About rhai-sci

This crate provides some basic scientific computing utilities for the Rhai scripting language, inspired by languages like MATLAB, Octave, and R. For a complete API reference, check the docs.

Install

To use the latest released version of rhai-sci, add this to your Cargo.toml:

rhai-sci = "0.1.4"

To use the bleeding edge instead, add this:

rhai-sci = { git = "https://github.com/cmccomb/rhai-sci" }

Usage

Using this crate is pretty simple! If you just want to evaluate a single line of Rhai, then you only need:

use rhai::INT;
use rhai_sci::eval;
let result = eval::<INT>("argmin([43, 42, -500])").unwrap();

If you need to use rhai-sci as part of a persistent Rhai scripting engine, then do this instead:

use rhai::{Engine, packages::Package, INT};
use rhai_sci::SciPackage;

// Create a new Rhai engine
let mut engine = Engine::new();

// Add the rhai-sci package to the new engine
engine.register_global_module(SciPackage::new().as_shared_module());

// Now run your code
let value = engine.eval::<INT>("argmin([43, 42, -500])").unwrap();
