# Roboleaf configuration files interpreter
|
||||
|
||||
Reads and executes Roboleaf product configuration files.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
`rbcrun` *options* *VAR=value*... [ *file* ]
|
||||
|
||||
A Roboleaf configuration file is a Starlark script. Usually it is read from *file*. The option `-c` allows to provide a
|
||||
script directly on the command line. The option `-f` is there to allow the name of a file script to contain (`=`).
|
||||
(i.e., `my=file.rbc` sets `my` to `file.rbc`, `-f my=file.rbc` runs the script from `my=file.rbc`).
|
||||
|
||||
### Options
|
||||
|
||||
`-d` *dir*\
|
||||
Root directory for load("//path",...)
|
||||
|
||||
`-c` *text*\
|
||||
Read script from *text*
|
||||
|
||||
`--perf` *file*\
|
||||
Gather performance statistics and save it to *file*. Use \
|
||||
` go tool prof -top`*file*\
|
||||
to show top CPU users
|
||||
|
||||
`-f` *file*\
|
||||
File to run.
|
||||
|
||||
## Extensions
|
||||
|
||||
The runner allows Starlark scripts to use the following features that Bazel's Starlark interpreter does not support:
|
||||
|
||||
### Load statement URI
|
||||
|
||||
Starlark does not define the format of the load statement's first argument.
|
||||
The Roboleaf configuration interpreter supports the format that Bazel uses
|
||||
(`":file"` or `"//path:file"`). In addition, it allows the URI to end with
|
||||
`"|symbol"` which defines a single variable `symbol` with `None` value if a
|
||||
module does not exist. Thus,
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
load(":mymodule.rbc|init", mymodule_init="init")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
will load the module `mymodule.rbc` and export a symbol `init` in it as
|
||||
`mymodule_init` if `mymodule.rbc` exists. If `mymodule.rbc` is missing,
|
||||
`mymodule_init` will be set to `None`
|
||||
|
||||
### Predefined Symbols
|
||||
|
||||
#### rblf_env
|
||||
|
||||
A `struct` containing environment variables. E.g., `rblf_env.USER` is the username when running on Unix.
|
||||
|
||||
#### rblf_cli
|
||||
|
||||
A `struct` containing the variable set by the interpreter's command line. That is, running
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
rbcrun FOO=bar myfile.rbc
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
will have the value of `rblf_cli.FOO` be `"bar"`
|
||||
|
||||
### Predefined Functions
|
||||
|
||||
#### rblf_file_exists(*file*)
|
||||
|
||||
Returns `True` if *file* exists
|
||||
|
||||
#### rblf_wildcard(*glob*, *top* = None)
|
||||
|
||||
Expands *glob*. If *top* is supplied, expands "*top*/*glob*", then removes
|
||||
"*top*/" prefix from the matching file names.
|
||||
|
||||
#### rblf_regex(*pattern*, *text*)
|
||||
|
||||
Returns *True* if *text* matches *pattern*.
|
||||
|
||||
#### rblf_shell(*command*)
|
||||
|
||||
Runs `sh -c "`*command*`"`, reads its output, converts all newlines into spaces, chops trailing newline returns this
|
||||
string. This is equivalent to Make's
|
||||
`shell` builtin function. *This function will be eventually removed*.
