Crate rpic_core 

rpic-core — engine for the pic picture-drawing language.

Pipeline: source → lexer → parser → ast → [eval] → placed primitives (ir) → render backends (svg, later PNG/PDF). This crate is pure (no file I/O); the CLI and WASM wrappers drive it.

Note: [eval] is the pic-language interpreter — a safe walker over a typed expression/geometry tree. It executes no arbitrary code.

Modules

ast

Abstract syntax tree for the pic language.

eval

Evaluator: walks the crate::ast and produces a placed-primitive Drawing using pic’s positioning semantics.

geom

Geometry primitives. pic works in a Cartesian plane with y pointing up; internal units are pic “inches” (scaled to device units by each backend).

ir

Intermediate representation: the placed-primitive tree produced by the evaluator and consumed by the render backends. All coordinates are absolute, in pic units (inches), y pointing up.

lexer

Hand-written lexer for the pic language.

parser

Recursive-descent parser for the pic drawing core.

svg

SVG 1.1 backend. Renders a Drawing to an SVG string.

token

Token set for the pic language, mirroring dpic’s dpic.toks.

Constants

CIRCUITS

Bundled native circuit-element library (the define dialect). Prepend it to source to use resistor, capacitor, … See std/circuits.pic.

Functions

animations_json

Build the JSON animation manifest array ([{id,effect,start,duration},…]) for an already-compiled drawing.

compile

Compile pic source into a placed-primitive Drawing.

compile_json

Compile to a single JSON object { "svg": "...", "animations": [...] }, or { "error": "..." } on failure. This is the entry point the WASM wrapper and browser playground consume.

render_svg

Compile pic source directly to an SVG string.
