# agda-kernel
An experimental Agda kernel for Jupyter.
Installation
------------
pip install agda_kernel
python -m agda_kernel.install
Syntax highlighting is done separately by [Codemirror](https://codemirror.net/),
but unfortunately there is no Agda mode packaged with it.
A rudimentary Agda mode for Codemirror can be found in ``codemirror-agda/agda.js``.
It needs to be manually installed inside Jupyter, as follows:
Let `dir` be the result of executing the following command
pip show notebook | grep Location | cut -d ' ' -f 2
(It is something like ``/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages``,
``~/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages``,
or ``/usr/local/Cellar/jupyter/1.0.0_5/libexec/lib/python3.7/site-packages/``.)
Then,
mkdir -p dir/notebook/static/components/codemirror/mode/agda
cp codemirror-agda/agda.js dir/notebook/static/components/codemirror/mode/agda
Functionality
-------------
Each code cell must begin with a line of the form ``module A.B.C where``.
For instance:
```agda
module A.B.C where
id : {A : Set} → A → A
id x = x
```
Upon execution, the file `A/B/C.agda` is created containing the cell's contents,
and it is fed to the Agda interpreter (via `agda --interaction`).
The result of typechecking the cell are then displayed.
After a cell has been evaluated, one can
- Infer the type of a closed expression,
by putting the cursor near the expression and hitting SHIFT-TAB.
If the expression is in parentheses ``(...)``, then the cursor should be near one of the two parentheses.
If the expression is just a literal, then the cursor should be inside, or in the vicinity of the literal.
- Normalise a closed expression,
by putting the cursor near the expression and hitting TAB.
Expression localisation follows the same rules as in the previous point.
Editing
-------
Inputting common UNICODE characters is facilitated by the code-completion feature of Jupyter.
- When the cursor is immediately to the right of one of the `base form` symbols
hitting TAB will replace it by the corresponding `alternate form`.
Hitting TAB again will go back to the base form.
