Run

All roads lead to Rome but Python 3.x is the prefered vehicle.

pip

pip install dharma
dharma --help

pipenv

pipenv install --dev
pipenv run dharma --help

package

python -m dharma --help

Docker

docker build -t dharma .
docker run --rm -it dharma -grammars dharma/grammars/canvas2d.dg

Examples

Generate a single test-case and print it to stdout. Multiple grammars can be appended to the -grammars argument.

dharma -grammars dharma/grammars/canvas2d.dg

Generating multiple test-cases and save the result to disk.

dharma -grammars dharma/grammars/canvas2d.dg -storage . -count 5

Generate test-cases and serve them in a template via WebSocket. Launch dharma/grammars/var/index.html in the browser after Dharma launched.

dharma -grammars dharma/grammars/canvas2d.dg -server -template grammars/var/templates/html5/default.html

Benchmark the generator.

time dharma -grammars dharma/grammars/canvas2d.dg -count 10000 > /dev/null

Development

PyLint

In case you run PyLint 1.9.2 and Python 3.7 you need to upgrade PyLint.

pip3 install pylint astroid --pre -U
