Struct Extension 

pub struct Extension<Buffer: IoWrite> {
    pub name: String,
    pub kind: ExtensionKind<Buffer>,
}

Diatom rust extension

Each extension has a name, which is used to identify extension when being imported. For example, import my_ext.sub_ext will automatically look up base extension my_ext and its sub extension sub_ext.

Fields

name: String

Name of this extension

Note:

• Sub extensions with the same name will OVERRIDE each other.
• If name is not a valid diatom identifier this extension can NOT be imported.
• Name must not contain /, otherwise will be ignore this extension.
• If the name is mod then the extension will be load when parent module is imported. (The same way <module>/mod.dm works)

For base extension

Base extensions are the extension that directly registered to the interpreter. Their names must be unique (will otherwise rejected by the interpreter). Also, base extension names will hijack ANY import starts with its name. For example, an extension with name my_ext will cause all import my_ext.<anything here> to be resolved to the extension. This will make local file like my_ext.dm inaccessible.
