NodeScript

Tests Benchmark NuGet Version

NodeScript is a rudimentary programming language designed to function on 'nodes', intended for use in puzzle games. Find more details here

Nodes

  • Input nodes will continuously attempt to send the next line. It has only one output.
  • Regular nodes can take in one string at a time, process it and send it to a set number of outputs. Each node can store a single string in mem. mem is the only variable which will persist between executions.
  • Combiner nodes can merge multiple inputs into one output. It offers no options to choose which string goes through first, picking whatever comes first.
  • Output nodes will consume the lines sent to it, storing it in a string.

Features

  • Basic arithmetic and boolean logic
  • Variables - All variables are global in scope
  • Indexing
    • Element_of: v[i]
    • Slice: v[i:j]
  • Basic control flow (if-else)
  • Native functions for things like:
    • String manipulation
    • Data conversion and parsing
  • Dynamic typing between:
    • string
    • string[]
    • int
    • bool

Notably, there are NO loops within the scripting itself. No while. No for. Execution will occur line by line and will only start when a node receives an input string to be processed.

Syntax

Every line contains a single statement. All statements will start with a relevant keyword for the operation.

  • SET: Sets a variable to a certain value. Variables do not need to be declared. Syntax: SET <variable_name>, <expression>
  • PRINT: Sends a string to a specific output node, denoted by an index. Syntax: PRINT <output_idx>, <expression>
  • RETURN: Ends the program (until the next input comes). Syntax: RETURN
  • IF: Executes the following code if the given expression is true. Syntax IF <expression>
  • ELSE: Executes the following code if the previous if statement was false. Syntax ELSE
  • ENDIF: Marks the end of the IF clause. Either ends the IF code section or the ELSE code section. Only one is needed per IF/ELSE statement. Syntax ENDIF
  • NOP: Does nothing. Helpful for synchronizing the timing of multiple nodes. Syntax NOP
