dust/src/interpret.rs

//! Tools to interpret dust source code.
//!
//! This module has three tools to run Dust code.
//!
//! - [interpret] is the simplest way to run Dust code inside of an application or library
//! - [interpret_with_context] allows you to set variables on the execution context
//! - [Interpreter] is an advanced tool that can parse, validate, run and format Dust code
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! Run some Dust and get the result.
//!
//! ```rust
//! # use dust_lang::*;
//! assert_eq!(
//!     interpret("1 + 2 + 3"),
//!     Ok(Value::Integer(6))
//! );
//! ```
//!
//! Create a custom context with variables you can use in your code.
//!
//! ```rust
//! # use dust_lang::*;
//! let context = Context::new();
//!
//! context.set_value("one".into(), 1.into()).unwrap();
//! context.set_value("two".into(), 2.into()).unwrap();
//! context.set_value("three".into(), 3.into()).unwrap();
//!
//! let dust_code = "four = 4; one + two + three + four";
//!
//! assert_eq!(
//!     interpret_with_context(dust_code, context),
//!     Ok(Value::Integer(10))
//! );
//! ```
