What do you get when you cross a Camel with a Gopher?

Campher!

Perl in Go.

Example of the awesomeness / horror:

========= INSTALL

$ go get github.com/bradfitz/campher

========= EXAMPLE

package main

import ( "fmt" "strings"

"github.com/bradfitz/campher/perl"

)

func main() { p := perl.NewInterpreter() p.Eval($foo = "bar";) fmt.Println("foo is:", p.EvalString("$foo"))

cv := p.Eval(`sub { my ($a1, $a2, $func) = @_; $func->($a1, $a2); }`).CV()
var ret *SV
p := perl.NewInterpreter()
foo := p.Eval(`$foo = sub {

my ($op,$v1, $v2) = @_; return "Perl says: " .$op->($v1,$v2); };`) concat := func(a, b string) string { return a + b } fmt.Println("concat:", foo.CV().Call(concat, "foo", "bar"))

base := 0
add := func(a, b int) int {
	base++
	return a + b + base
}
fmt.Println("add:", foo.CV().Call(add, 1, "40"))
fmt.Println("add:", foo.CV().Call(add, 1, "40"))

}

================ EXAMPLE OUTPUT

concat: Perl says: foobar add: Perl says: 42 add: Perl says: 43
