[[tags: egg]] [[toc:]] == autocompile === Introduction This extension provides a simple method of writing scripts that are compiled on demand. A program named {{chicken-scheme}} takes a Scheme file and a number of arguments and if the script has not been compiled before or has changed as compared to the last compiled version, compiles it, storing the result in a cache in the user's {{$HOME}} directory. === Requirements [[/eggref/4/matchable|matchable]] === Repository This egg is hosted on the CHICKEN Subversion repository: [[https://anonymous@code.call-cc.org/svn/chicken-eggs/release/5/autocompile|https://anonymous@code.call-cc.org/svn/chicken-eggs/release/5/autocompile]] If you want to check out the source code repository of this egg and you are not familiar with Subversion, see [[/egg-svn-checkout|this page]]. === Usage Autocompiled scripts should begin like this: #!/usr/bin/env chicken-scheme ... code follows here ... {{chicken-scheme}} takes the MD5 hash of the source file and looks it up in the {{$HOME/.chicken-scheme.cache}} directory. If it is found, the cached entry is invoked with the remaingin script arguments. Otherwise it will be compiled, with compiler output redirected to a temporary file and executed after that. The {{chicken-scheme}} program accepts a few additional options: chicken-scheme -list Lists the contents of the cache directory chicken-scheme -purge Deletes all files in the cache directory. Compiled programs will be collected it here and should be periodically purged. This doesn't change the behaviour of existing scripts, they simply have to be recompiled, which should happen on first use. Invoking {{chicken-scheme}} with no arguments will simply start {{csi(1)}}, the CHICKEN interpreter. This extension needs the {{md5sum(1)}} program (or {{md5(1)}} on Mac OS X). You can add additional command-line options by preceding the code with special comments, like this: #!/usr/bin/env chicken-scheme ;;; AUTOCOMPILE: -X my-reader-extension -O5 ... {{chicken-scheme}} will detect "AUTOCOMPILE" specifications beginning in the second source line of the file, up to the first line that does not contain such a specification. Specifically, lines matching the following regular expression will be detected: ^ *;[ ;]*AUTOCOMPILE: === Environment variables A few environment variables allow customization of the autocompilation mechanism: HOME Your home directory that will contain the cache (the latter is created automatically, if it doesn't exist). CHICKEN_SCHEME_DEBUG If set, show progress information during the compilation. CHICKEN_SCHEME_OPTIONS Options passed to {{csc(1)}}. The default options are {{-O2}}. CHICKEN_SCHEME_HOOK The name of a program to be invoked when compiling a script. When a program must be compiled, the hook is invoked as a shell command: $CHICKEN_SCHEME_HOOK start SOURCEFILE ERRORFILE {{ERRORFILE}} will receive compiler output and error-messages. After the compilation, the hook is called as $CHICKEN_SCHEME_HOOK end SOURCEFILE ERRORFILE When the compilation fails, the hook is invoked as $CHICKEN_SCHEME_HOOK fail SOURCEFILE ERRORFILE === License Copyright (c) 2009-2012, Felix L.
