Documentation

Ruchy - Self-Hosting Programming Language with Toyota Way Quality ๐Ÿš€

License: MIT Rust 1.75+ Tests Coverage v1.15.0

Ruchy is a self-hosting programming language with comprehensive tooling (29 CLI commands), Toyota Way quality engineering, and mathematical property verification that makes regressions impossible.

๐ŸŽฏ Quick Start

# Install from crates.io
cargo install ruchy

ruchy -e "println('Hello, World!')"

# Start the REPL
ruchy repl

# Run a script
ruchy run script.ruchy

# Check syntax
ruchy check script.ruchy

# Format code
ruchy fmt script.ruchy

# Lint code
ruchy lint script.ruchy

# Run tests
ruchy test script.ruchy

# Advanced tooling
ruchy ast script.ruchy --json
ruchy score script.ruchy
ruchy provability script.ruchy --verify

โœจ Key Features

๐Ÿš€ Language Excellence

  • Pipeline Operator: data |> transform |> filter functional style
  • Pattern Matching: Complete with guards: x if x > 0 => "positive"
  • Both Lambda Syntaxes: |x| x + 1 and x => x + 1 supported
  • Module System: use, mod, and :: path resolution
  • Error Handling: Result/Option types with ? operator
  • HashMap/HashSet: Complete collections with all methods
  • String/Array Methods: 20+ methods each for comprehensive manipulation

๐Ÿ“Š Toyota Way Quality Engineering

  • 87.80% Test Coverage: Mathematical verification of correctness
  • 374 Tests Passing: Unit, integration, CLI, property, and fuzz tests
  • Zero-Warning Build: Complete clippy compliance (-D warnings)
  • Mathematical Properties: Idempotency, determinism formally verified
  • Automated Quality Gates: Pre-commit hooks prevent regressions

๐Ÿ’ป Interactive REPL

  • Resource-bounded: Memory limits, timeouts, stack protection
  • Syntax highlighting: Real-time colored output
  • Tab completion: Context-aware completions
  • Persistent history: Cross-session command storage
  • Multiline editing: Automatic continuation detection

Example Code

// Self-hosting compiler capabilities
fun parse_expr(tokens: Vec<Token>) -> Result<Expr, ParseError> {
    match tokens.first() {
        Some(Token::Number(n)) => Ok(Expr::Literal(*n)),
        Some(Token::Ident(name)) => Ok(Expr::Variable(name.clone())),
        _ => Err(ParseError::UnexpectedToken)
    }
}

// Functional programming with pipeline operator  
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
  |> numbers.map(|x| x * 2)
  |> numbers.filter(|x| x > 5)
  |> numbers.sum()

// Pattern matching with guards
match user_input {
    n if n > 0 => "positive",
    0 => "zero",
    1..=10 => "small range",
    _ => "other"
}

// HashMap collections
let mut map = HashMap()
map.insert("key", "value")
map.get("key").unwrap()
