codon-compiler-demo 0.18.0

A compiled language similar to Python. Compatible with Python syntax.

This package is experimental.

What is this package about?

Codon is an open-source compiled language with Python syntax and semantics (mostly). It works well together with python.

See:

• https://github.com/exaloop/codon
• https://docs.exaloop.io/codon

This package allows you to install Codon with:

pip install codon-compiler-demo

In addition, you can build binary python packages with codon code. Here is a setup.py example:

from codon_compiler_demo.setup_tools import setup, CodonExtension, BuildCodonExt

setup(
    name='mymodule',
    version='0.1',
    packages=['mymodule'],
    ext_modules=[
        CodonExtension('mymodule', 'mymodule.codon'),
    ],
    cmdclass={'build_ext': BuildCodonExt},
    install_requires=[
        'codon_compiler_demo',
    ],
)

Dev status

I created this package for my own needs -- as described above. As of now, it works for linux only.

I don't (yet) have the expertise to build and maintain a widely-used binary python package. I would be very happy if anybody who needs a more mature and widely usable codon-compiler package would take this idea over and maintain it.
