ruby2nim

A WIP tool for porting Ruby code to Nim

Based on languist

how to use

# build with nim c ruby2nim.nim
./ruby2nim <filename>.rb

generates <filename>.nim

config

Usually you need to setup either languist.json in your local dir, or ~/.config/languist.json or to set LANGUIST_CONFIG env.

Your config might look like

{
    "indent": 2,
    "imports": ["a"],
    "name": "b",
    "ignoreMethods": ["c"]
}

project

If you want to trace a bigger project, you can pass

ruby2nim <filename_pattern> <target_folder> <command>

where command can be e.g. a bash file invoking.

This is useful because often one want to translate only a set of files matching a pattern or to tweak something.

For now please open an issue for problems: this is not yet fully stable

setup

You need to find ruby-deduckt's path, save the path in LANGUIST_RUBY_DEDUCKT_PATH and run rbenv exec bundle install in languist's dir. This should be automated in next version.

Currently we assume that you run your commands under rbenv: this would be also generalized.
