Here's a trick though: I got lazy (a bit) and did not write a full deserializer for Schema because this is busywork and not at all necessary at this stage. Instead, I've made the blueprint parameterized by a generic type <T>; which represents the type of the underlying blueprint's schema. When deserializing from JSON, we can default to 'Value' to get a free deserializer. Since all we're interested about is the program and the metadata (purpose and title) of a validator, it works nicely.
Serialization however expects a Blueprint<Schema>, and most of the functions operates over a Blueprint<Schema> anyway.
In an ideal world, I should have handlded that directly at the conflicting commit in the rebase, but this would have bubbled up through all commits... which I wasn't really quite keen on going through. So here's an extra ugly commit that comes and 'fix the rebase'.
This is quite something, because now we have a testing pipeline that
can also be used for testing other compiler-related stuff such as the
type-checker or the code generator.
The blueprint is generated at the root of the repository and is
intended to be versioned with the rest. It acts as a business card
that contains many practical information. There's a variety of tools
we can then build on top of open-source contracts. And, quite
importantly, the blueprint is language-agnostic; it isn't specific to
Aiken. So it is really meant as an interop format within the
ecosystem.
This makes it easier to add new dependencies, without having to
manually edit the `aiken.toml` file.
The command is accessible via two different paths:
- aiken deps add
or simply
- aiken add
for this is quite common to find at the top-level of the command-line,
and, we still want to keep commands for managing dependencies grouped
under a command sub-group and not all at the top-level. So we're
merely promoting that one for visibility.
This is a bit cleaner, as the 'cmd/new' had many on-the-fly functions
which are better scoped inside this module.
Plus, it plays nicely with the std::str::FromStr trait definition.
