This project is in early alpha stage, please use it at your own risk
LingaScript is the TypeScript with multilingal support, which enable users to write code with non-English languages.
Basically LingaScript is derived from TypeScript (and Javascript). LingaScript can be compiled to Javascript and be used across the Javascript ecosystem.
Non-english programming adventurers can easily add your local language, work together to improve the same core, and get benifit for the shared programming tools with better local language support.
You can find available built version with lingascript-[lang] in npm.
- English (en, derived from TypeScript, Package: Typescript
)
- 简体中文 (Simplified Chinese, cn, 支持的关键字, 套件: lingascript-cn
)
- 正體中文 (Traditional Chinese, tw, 支援的關鍵字, 套件: lingascript-tw
)
Install LingaScript via command
npm install -g lingascript-[lang]
Then you get the tsc command. (same as TypeScript)
Create test.ts file.
let isDone = falseor you can use TypeScript-style type check format:
let isDone:boolean = falseThen run command
tsc test.tsto compile and get output test.js
let isDone = falseTo show with locale diagnostic messages, pass the --locale [lang] param in tsc, ex:
tsc --locale zh-cn test.tsMore [native language] code examples in https://github.com/gasolin/lingascript/tree/master/examples/[lang] .
$ git clone https://github.com/gasolin/lingascript.git
$ cd lingascript
$ npm install -g jake
$ npm install
$ npm run build:cnbuild:cn will build for Simplified Chinese support and build:tw will build for Traditional Chinese support.
Once build is complete, you can run command node /built/local/tsc.js to compile source code in examples/cn with simplified chinese.
node typescript/built/local/tsc.js -p examples/cnThe example comes from TypeScript's Basic types tutorial.
You can config the tsconfig.json file for different output target (es5, es6, es2018...).
{
"compilerOptions": {
"outDir": "./built",
"allowJs": true,
"target": "es6",
"diagnostics": true,
"locale": "zh-CN"
},
"include": [
"./src/**/*"
]
}LingaScript use file-patch to patch TypeScript's compiler.
Check TypeScript Build Instruction for more detail about building TypeScript.
The npm run build:cn will do
-
patch clean TypeScript with .diff files in src/. The related scripts are stored in scripts/ folder.
-
npm run buildwill be used to build the patched TypeScript -
Run
npm run test:cnto make sure the built tool works.
For example, to test Traditional Chinese, you can run commands:
$ npm run clean
$ npm run build:tw
$ npm run test:twYou need to remove TypeScript for a clean patch. To re-build from the clean TypeScript, you can run
$ npm run clean
$ npm run build:cncheck the clean and build:cn script package.json's scripts section for the execute detail.
-
You can disable patch process by removing the
prebuildscript inpackage.json'sscriptssection. If you plan to change default keywords, removecp src/[lang]/language.ts typescript/src/compiler/language.ts &&from thebuild:[lang]script inpackage.json'sscriptssection to avoid overwrite fromsrc/[lang]. -
Follow Normal Validation phase, if the modifications works, we can backup the modified files from
typescript/srctosrc/via
npm run backupEdit scripts/backup.sh to include the new modified files.
- To generate
.difffiles, compare the backup-ed modified files with the cleantypescript/srcfolder via
npm run diffEdit scripts/diff.sh to include the new modified files.
To upgrade the TypeScript's version (to v3.4.0 for example):
$ npm run upgrade-ts
$ cd typescript
$ git checkout v3.4.0
$ cd ..
$ git add typescriptThe TypeScript version follows https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/releases
Modify the build:ts script in package.json's scripts section. Replace jake LKG(replace lib/ with last known good build) to jake local(for local build, not replaced lib/).
