Small scripting language for Rust build scripts.
I normally use Nushell for my shell, but most people use Bash/Zsh. This means that for simple scripts I want to run to set up the environment for a program, I either need to: 1) Write two scripts (.nu and .sh) 2) Omit .sh so others can use but is a hassle for me 3) Omit .nu so I can use but is a hassle for others 4) Write the entire process in Rust itself
Now, Rust is absolutely awesome, but for doing a lot of really simple environment setup it just seems annoying and overkill. Now, I can write a small script and call it directly from the Rust code in my build.rs file.
READ <filepath> -> <variable>
WRITE <filepath> <text>
PRINT <text>
APPEND <string1> <string2> -> <variable>
Putting them all together into a simple script would look like:
WRITE test.txt "why u so gay bruh?"
READ test.txt statement
PRINT statement
APPEND statement " because i am dawg." -> reply
PRINT reply
I want to keep this dead-simple, uber-bare-bones, but I'd also like to add the following features: - FOR: for-loops - HOME: returns user's home directory - CONCAT: allow user to chain strings/variables together to build system paths
