clawbang
A command line interface meant to bridge the gap between Rust and shell
scripting. Intended for use with HEREDOCs and shebangs:
$ clawbang <<EOF
fn main() {
println!("hello world!")
}
EOFOr as a binary executable file:
#!/usr/bin/env clawbang
fn main() {
println!("hello world!")
}
performance
Clawbang takes the file input, hashes it, and then looks for a cached compiled
copy. If no copy is present, Clawbang compiles your code and caches it by that
hash for later lookup.
If your program failed to compile, those error messages are cached as well.
