alda

A French programming language created with the SLY library. 🥐

Requirements

⚠️ alda requires the SLY library (sly~=0.4) and therefore the use of Python 3.6 or greater :

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Installation

If you want to generate your own source and binary packages, make sure you have the following packages installed:

sudo apt-get install python3-stdeb python-all dh-python fakeroot 

You can then run the following commands to generate the source and binary packages:

python3 setup.py --command-packages=stdeb.command bdist_deb

Or if you want to generate the source package only:

python3 setup.py --command-packages=stdeb.command sdist_dsc

If you used the bdist_deb command, you will find the source and binary packages in the deb_dist directory:

cd deb_dist

You can now install the deb package with the following command:

sudo dpkg -i python3-alda_1.0.0-1_all.deb

⚠️ If you use Python 3.9 and you encounter any error during the installation, I suggest trying to install it with an older version of Python such as Python 3.7.

Usage

alda [-h] [-f FILE] [-s]

optional arguments:
-h, --help            show this help message and exit
-f FILE, --file FILE  Execute program from .alda file
-s, --shell           Start ALDA shell
