`std::Release`

release [-r|--recursive] handle

Releases an internal handle stored in the runtime memory.
Certain commands (such as array) will create a handle and the variable will only hold a reference to that handle.
In order to release those handles once they are no longer needed, the release command should be used.
By providing the recursive flag, it will also go over the data values (array items, map values, set keys, ...) and release each one of them as well if they are handles to other arrays/maps/sets/...

Parameters

Optional recursive (-r/--recursive) flag (default false)
The handle name.

Return Value

true - If a handle was found and removed
false - If no handle was found

Examples

release ${array_handle}

`std::collections`

The collections module contains commands which enable to interact with different data models such as arrays, sets and maps.

Arrays are simple ordered list of items
Sets are unordered unique collection of items
Maps are key/value (dictionary) structure where the keys are unique

Access to these data structures are done via handles.
Handles are provided by the data structure creation command (such as: array, range, map, set) and are used in all other commands to read/modify those data structures.
Once done with a specific data structure, you must release it via release command to prevent any memory leaks.

`std::collections::Array`

handle = array value1 value2 value3 ...

Creates an array from the input arguments and returns a handle to that array.
This handle can be passed to other commands which support arrays using handles.
Once the array is no longer used, it should be released using the release command.

Parameters

Any number of arguments which will construct the array.

Return Value

A handle to the array.

Examples

handle = array ${var} "hello world" 5 ${another_var}

# once done we should release the handle
release ${handle}

`std::flowcontrol::Function`

fn my_function
    # function content
    return output
end

fn <scope> another_function
    # function content
end

This command provides the function language feature as a set of commands:

function/fn - Defines a function start block
end - Defines the end of the function block
return - Allows to exit a function at any point and return an output
<scope> - Optional annotation which enables to use a new scope during the function invocation.
function name - Dynamically created commands based on the function name which are used to invoke the function code.

When a function command is detected, it will search for the end command that comes after.
That entire block is considered the function code block (functions cannot be nested in outer functions)

In order to invoke the function, simply call the function name with any amount of parameters.
Those parameters will be set as ${1}, ${2}, ... and so on.
Since variables are global, it will overwrite any older values stored in those variables.

To exit a function and return a value, simply use the return command with the value you want to return.
The variable that was used when the function was originally called, will now store that value.
The return command can be used to exit early without any value.
In case the code reached the end call, the function will exit but will not return a value.

The <scope> annotation enables to start a new scope when running the function.
All variables defined will not be available except the variables provided to the function as arguments.
All variables created during the function invocation will be deleted once the function ends, except the return value.
This enables a clean function invocation without impacting the global variables.

Parameters

function - The function name used later on to invoke the function
end - no parameters
return - optional single parameter to return as an output of the function call
<scope> - Optional annotation which enables to use a new scope during the function invocation.
function name - Any number of arguments which will automatically be set as global variables: ${1}, ${2}, ... as so on.

Return Value

The function invocation returns the output provided by the return command.

Examples

# Simple example of a function definition which echo 'hello world' and exits.

# function start
fn hello_world
    echo hello world
end

# function invocation
hello_world

# Example of calling a function and returning a value
fn get_hello_world
    return "hello world"
end

# function invocation
text = get_hello_world

# this will print "hello world"
echo ${text}

# Example of passing arguments
# Also the function is with scope annotation so it has no access
# to any variable except those provided during the function invocation.
fn <scope> print_input
    # ${1} is set with the value 'hello'
    # ${2} is set with the value 'world'
    echo ${1} ${2}
end

print_input hello world

# Functions can call other functions
fn get_one

`std::flowcontrol::If`

if [command|value|condition]
    # commands
elseif [command|value|condition]
    # commands
else
    # commands
end

This command provides the if/elseif/else condition language feature as a set of commands:

if - Defines an if condition
elseif - Defines optional secondary condition blocks
else - Optinoal fallback block
end - Defines the end of the entire if/else block

if and elseif commands accept either:

A command with optional arguments and invokes it
A single value which doesn't match any known command
A condition statement

If the result is one of the following:

No output
false (case insensitive)
0
no (case insensitive)
Empty value

It is considered falsy.
In case of falsy value, it will skip to the next elseif/else block.
If a truthy (non falsy) output is found, it will invoke the commands of that code block and ignore all other elseif/else blocks.

if blocks can be nested in other if blocks (see examples).

A condition statement is made up of values, or/and keywords and '('/')' groups.
Each must be separated with a space character.

Parameters

if/elseif - A command and its arguments to invoke and evaluate its output, if a single value is provided an no such command exists, it is evaluated as a value.
else/end - no parameters

Return Value

None

Examples

# Simple example of an if statement that evaluates the argument value as true and echos "in if"

end

This command provides the while loop language feature as a set of commands:

while - Defines a while condition and start of loop
end - Defines the end of the while block

The while command accept either:

A command with optional arguments and invokes it
A single value which doesn't match any known command
A condition statement

If the result is one of the following:

No output
false (case insensitive)
0
no (case insensitive)
Empty value

It is considered falsy.
In case of falsy value, it will skip to the next line after the while block.
If a truthy (non falsy) output is found, it will invoke the commands of that code block and go back to the start of the while condition.

while blocks can be nested in other while blocks (see examples).

A condition statement is made up of values, or/and keywords and '('/')' groups.
Each must be separated with a space character.

Parameters

while - A command and its arguments to invoke and evaluate its output, if a single value is provided an no such command exists, it is evaluated as a value.
end - no parameters

Return Value

None

Examples

top_count = set 0
inner_count = set 0
counter = set 0
while not equals ${top_count} 10
    top_count = calc ${top_count} + 1
    inner_count = set 0

    while not equals ${inner_count} 10
        inner_count = calc ${inner_count} + 1
        counter = calc ${counter} + 1
    end
end

`std::json`

The json module provides json parsing and encoding capabilities.
Parsing and encoding JSONs can be do to/from simple variables or to collections (maps/arrays).
By default, when parsing a JSON string, the structure will be represented by simple variables.
The root object (or simple value) will be set in the json_parse output variable and any sub structure will be defined as variables with prefix of the root variable name.
Object nodes, will have the value of: [OBJECT].
Array nodes will have a length variable defined, for example: arr.length
If the --collections flag is provided, parsing will return the JSON value or a handle to a collection which will hold the values (or sub collections).
These collections are better way to handling unknown json structures but must be released with the release --recursive command.

Because duckscript variables have no type, the json_encode will define every boolean/numeric value as JSON string.

Below is a simple example showing how to parse and encode values of all types when using the default behaviour of storing to variables.

fn test_simple_types
    str = json_parse \"myvalue\"
    assert_eq ${str} myvalue
    jsonstring = json_encode str
    assert_eq ${jsonstring} \"myvalue\"

    number = json_parse 500
    assert_eq ${number} 500
    jsonstring = json_encode number
    # numeric value is encoded as string
    assert_eq ${jsonstring} \"500\"

    bool = json_parse true
    assert_eq ${bool} true
    jsonstring = json_encode bool
    # boolean value is encoded to string
    assert_eq ${jsonstring} \"true\"

    arr = json_parse "[1, 2, 3]"
    # arr.length is not part of the JSON structure but added as a variable to enable
    # to loop over the array using the range command
    assert_eq ${arr.length} 3
    # direct array location access example
    assert_eq ${arr[0]} 1
    assert_eq ${arr[1]} 2
    assert_eq ${arr[2]} 3
    # array loop example
    arr_range = range 0 ${arr.length}
    for index in ${arr_range}
        expected_value = calc ${index} + 1
        value = get_by_name arr[${index}]
        assert_eq ${value} ${expected_value}
    end

    object = json_parse "{\"str\": \"my string value\", \"number\": 500, \"bool\": true, \"array\": [1, 2, 3]}"
    assert_eq ${object} [OBJECT]
    assert_eq ${object.str} "my string value"
    assert_eq ${object.number} 500
    assert_eq ${object.bool} true
    assert_eq ${object.array.length} 3
    assert_eq ${object.array[0]} 1
    assert_eq ${object.array[1]} 2
    assert_eq ${object.array[2]} 3
    jsonstring = json_encode object
    found = contains ${jsonstring} "\"str\":\"my string value\""
    assert ${found}
    found = contains ${jsonstring} "\"number\":\"500\""
    assert ${found}
    found = contains ${jsonstring} "\"bool\":\"true\""
    assert ${found}
    found = contains ${jsonstring} "\"array\":[\"1\",\"2\",\"3\"]"
    assert ${found}

    # we can cleanup all variables created from the json parse starting from the root object
    unset_all_vars --prefix object
    defined = is_defined object
    assert_false ${defined}
    defined = is_defined object.str
    assert_false ${defined}
    defined = is_defined object.array.length
    assert_false ${defined}
end

`std::json::Encode`

string = json_encode (--collection handle | var_name)

This function will encode all variables, starting from the root variable as a JSON string.
Since duckscript is untyped, all boolean and numeric values will be encoded as strings.
If --collection is passed, the provided value is considered as string or a map/array handle which is used to fetch the tree data and create the json string.

Parameters

Option --collection flag to make the encoding use the maps/arrays and values
The root variable name (or a handle/value in case --collection is provided)

Return Value

The JSON string

Examples

# will parse and encode to plain variables
package = json_parse "{\"name\": \"my package\", \"version\": 1, \"publish\": false, \"keywords\": [\"test1\", \"test2\"], \"directories\": {\"test\": \"spec\"}}"
jsonstring = json_encode package

# will parse and encode to maps/arrays
package = json_parse --collection "{\"name\": \"my package\", \"version\": 1, \"publish\": false, \"keywords\": [\"test1\", \"test2\"], \"directories\": {\"test\": \"spec\"}}"
jsonstring = json_encode --collection ${package}

Aliases:

json_encode

`std::json::Parse`

var = json_parse [--collection] string

This function will parse the provided JSON string and will create variables based on the parsed data.
The variables will reflect the json structure.
Object keys will have name using the json path standard, for example root.child
And arrays will have the array access annotation and length variable, for example:

root.child[5]
root.child.length

In case the --collection flag is provided, it will instead create maps/array as needed and return the root handle (or primitive value) of the json data. Make sure to use the release with the recursive flag on the root object to release the entire memory once done.

Parameters

Optional --collection flag to parse and return value/map/array
The JSON string to parse.

Return Value

The root value/handle.

Examples

# parse to simple variables
package = json_parse "{\"name\": \"my package\", \"version\": 1, \"publish\": false, \"keywords\": [\"test1\", \"test2\"], \"directories\": {\"test\": \"spec\"}}"

assert_eq ${package} "[OBJECT]"
assert_eq ${package.name} "my package"
assert_eq ${package.version} 1
assert_eq ${package.publish} false
assert_eq ${package.keywords.length} 2
assert_eq ${package.keywords[0]} test1
assert_eq ${package.keywords[1]} test2
assert_eq ${package.directories.test} spec

# parse to maps/arrays

`std::process::Execute`

exec [--fail-on-error|--get-exit-code] [--input value] command [args]*

output = exec command [args]*
stdout = set ${output.stdout}
stderr = set ${output.stderr}
exit_code = set ${output.code}

exit_code = exec --get-exit-code command [args]*

Executes the provided native command and arguments.
If no output variable is set, the command output will be flushed to the main out/err stream of the parent process.
In addition, in order to fail the command in case of the child process failed, add the --fail-on-error flag.
If an output variable is set, it will be used as a base variable name from which the command stout, stderr and exit code information can be pulled from.
The actual output variable name will not be modified, instead new variables will be created using that variable name as a baseline:

output.stdout - Will hold the stdout text content.
output.stderr - Will hold the stderr text content.
output.code - Will hold the process exit code.

If an output variable is set and the --get-exit-code flag is provided, the output will only contain the exit code.

Parameters

--fail-on-error - If no output variable is provided, it will cause an error in case the executed process exits with an error exit code.
--get-exit-code - If an output variable is provided, it will contain the exit code.
--input - Optional content to be sent to the child process input stream.
The command to execute and its arguments.

Return Value

Optionally a base name to access the process stout, stderr and exit code information.

Examples

# Example of running a command and flushing its output to the parent process.
exec echo hello world

# Example of running a command and storing its output.
output = exec echo hello world
