ALang - A language

===================

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/nishtahir/ALang.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/nishtahir/ALang)

A very tiny dynamically typed interpreted language.

#Features

~~~ python

#Alang is a dynamically typed language

    

#Just give a name and a value and you are

#ready to go.

hello := "world"

    

#Alang supports integers and strings

y := 42

    

#how to output things to console

println "Quick and easy"

    

# We have for loops with ranges

# 1 ~ 10 means from 1 to 10

for(i := 0 ~ 10) {

    println(i)

}

    

#Lists are made this way

x := [3, 9, 4, 6, 5, 1, 6, 7, 8, 10, 2]

    

#Lists are also dynamically typed

#so you can have lists like this

x := ["Hello", 10]

Getting started

---------------

Dependencies:

* Java **1.7** or newer

#### Source

To build `ALang` from source, you need to have [Apache Maven](https://maven.apache.org) installed.

~~~ sh

$ git clone https://github.com/nishtahir/ALang.git

$ cd ALang

$ ./mvnw package

~~~

The output of the build is located in the `target/ALang/bin/ALang` directory. To execute an `ALang` source file,

~~~ sh

$ cd target/ALang/bin

$ ./ALang [path to Alang source]

~~~

#### Documentation

To generate Documentation, after **Source** step, you should issue command: 

~~~ sh

$ ./mvnw site

~~~

and then generated documentation will be on following link: ALang/target/site/apidocs/index.html

but if you want UML diagrams to be included in your documentation, you need to have [graphviz](http://www.graphviz.org/) installed, before generating documentation. You can install graphviz via issuing following command: 

~~~ sh 

# Using apt

$ sudo apt-get install graphviz

# Using Homebrew

$ brew install graphviz

# Using chocolatey

C:\> choco install graphviz

~~~
