Erlang port of the Shen programming language.

Building

For creating the shen-erl executable you first need to have Erlang 20.0.2 or superior, with the erl binary accessible. Then just run make.

TODO

For instructions on how to use the shen-erl command, run

SHEN_ERL_ROOTDIR=. ./bin/shen-erl --help

where SHEN_ERL_ROOTDIR is the directory where the ebin directory is found.

Erlang tests are run through Docker:

make docker-test
# also run dialyzer
make docker-dialyze

make shen-tests
