Streem

Build Status ![Gitter](https://badges.gitter.im/Join Chat.svg)

Streem is a stream based concurrent scripting language. It is based on a programming model similar to the shell, with influences from Ruby, Erlang, and other functional programming languages.

Note: Streem is still in the design stage. It's not working yet. Stay tuned.

Examples

In Streem, a simple cat program looks like this:

STDIN | STDOUT

Streem is a (sort of) DSL for data flows. Above code means building data-flow connection between STDIN and STDOUT. Actual data processing will be done in the event loop invoked after program execution.

For another example, a simple FizzBuzz will look like this:

seq(100) | {|x|
  if x % 15 == 0 {
    "FizzBuzz"
  }
  else if x % 3 == 0 {
    "Fizz"
  }
  else if x % 5 == 0 {
    "Buzz"
  }
  else {
    x
  }
} | STDOUT

The second part in the pipeline ({|x|...}) is a function object. If a function object is connected in the pipeline, it will be invoked for each elements in the stream.

Compiling

Install dependencies

  • bison
  • flex
  • gcc / clang

Run make

make

Please note that Streem will not run any scripts yet, but you can check parse files and check syntax.
