Source entered interactively can now be displayed in traceback output. Also,
the REPL object is now available in its namespace, so that, for instance,
display options--like `spy`--can be turned on and off interactively.
Closeshylang/hy#1397.
Compiler and command-line error messages now reflect their Python counterparts.
E.g. where Python emits a `SyntaxError`, so does Hy; same for `TypeError`s.
Multiple tests have been added that check the format and type of raised
exceptions over varying command-line invocations (e.g. interactive and not).
A new exception type for `require` errors was added so that they can be treated
like normal run-time errors and not compiler errors.
The Hy REPL has been further refactored to better match the class-structured
API. Now, different error types are handled separately and leverage more base
class-provided functionality.
Closeshylang/hy#1486.
These changes make the Hy REPL more closely follow `code.InteractiveConsole`'s
class interface and provide minimally intrusive traceback print-out filtering
via a context manager that temporarily alters `sys.excepthook`. In other words,
exception messages from the REPL will no longer show Hy internal
code (e.g. importer, compiler and parsing functions).
The boolean variable `hy.errors._hy_filter_internal_errors` dynamically
enables/disables trace filtering, and the env variable
`HY_FILTER_INTERNAL_ERRORS` can be used as the initial value.
This commit refactors the exception/error classes and their handling.
It also retains Hy source strings and their originating file information, when
available, all throughout the core parser and compiler functions.
As well, with these changes, calling code is no longer responsible for providing
source and file details to exceptions,
Closeshylang/hy#657.
These changes make `HyREPL` use a single `HyASTCompiler` instance, instead of
creating one every time a valid source string is processed.
This change avoids the unnecessary re-initiation of the standard library
`import` and `require` steps that currently occur within the module tracked by a
`HyREPL` instance.
Also, one can now pass an existing compiler instance to `hy_repl` and
`hy_compiler`.
Closeshylang/hy#1698.
Functions and variables relating to compilation and parsing have been moved to
`compiler.py` and `lex/__init__.py`, respectively. Those functions are
- `hy_parse` from `hy.importer` to `hy.lex`
- `hy_eval`, `ast_compile`, and `calling_module` from `hy.importer` to
`hy.compiler`
Closeshylang/hy#1695.
This change a Hy-preferring `runhy` that is used by cmdline Hy. Standard
`runpy` is still patched so that it can run `.hy` files, but the default
behaviour for unknown filetypes is preserved (i.e. assume they are Python
source).
Closeshylang/hy#1677.
Python 3.x is patched in a way that integrates `.hy` source files into
Pythons default `importlib` machinery. In Python 2.7, a PEP-302 "importer"
and "loader" is implemented according to the standard `import` logic (via
`pkgutil` and later pure-Python `imp` package code).
In both cases, the entry-point for the loaders is through `sys.path_hooks` only.
As well, the import semantics have been updated all throughout to utilize
`importlib` and follow aspects of PEP-420. This, along with some light
patches, should allow for basic use of `runpy`, `py_compile` and `reload`.
In all cases, if a `.hy` file is shadowed by a `.py`, Hy will silently use
`.hy`.
This commit adds -E support for Hy. Similar to Python, hy will ignore
all PYTHON* environment variables, e.g. PYTHONPATH and PYTHONHOME,
that might be set.
* with-decorator: Allow a `setv` form as the form to be decorated
This feature is of dubious value by itself, but it's necessary to allow `defn` to create a lambda instead of a `def`.
* Make `fn` work the same as `lambda`
That is, allow it to generate a `lambda` instead of a `def` statement if the function body is just an expression.
I've removed two uses of with_decorator in hy.compiler because they'd require adding another case to HyASTCompiler.compile_decorate_expression and they have no ultimate effect, anyway.
In a few tests, I've added a meaningless statement in `fn` bodies to force generation of a `def`.
I've removed `test_fn_compiler_empty_function` rather than rewrite it because it seems like a pain to maintain and not very useful.
* Remove `lambda`, now that `fn` does the same thing
Give `require` the same features as `import`
You can now do (require foo), (require [foo [a b c]]), (require [foo [*]]), and (require [foo :as bar]). The first and last forms get you macros named foo.a, foo.b, etc. or bar.a, bar.b, etc., respectively. The second form only gets the macros in the list.
Implements #1118 and perhaps partly addresses #277.
N.B. The new meaning of (require foo) will cause all existing code that uses macros to break. Simply replace these forms with (require [foo [*]]) to get your code working again.
There's a bit of a hack involved in the forms (require foo) or (require [foo :as bar]). When you call (foo.a ...) or (bar.a ...), Hy doesn't actually look inside modules. Instead, these (require ...) forms give the macros names that have periods in them, which happens to work fine with the way Hy finds and interprets macro calls.
* Make `require` syntax stricter and add tests
* Update documentation for `require`
* Documentation wording improvements
* Allow :as in `require` name lists
Previously, Hy scripts that raised a subclass of IOError would be caught
by code intended to deal with IOErrors raised when Hy couldn't import
the script itself, resulting in either a misleading "Can't open file"
error message, or a misleading TypeError traceback from not being able
to format the "Can't open file" message (for IOErrors for which the
errno attribute was None). This commit (a straightforward implementation
of the idea proposed by @slimetree in #714) introduces a new HyIOError
class, raises that when `import_file_to_hst` can't open the file path,
and catches it in the `cmdline_handler`.
This is believed to fix#513, #714, and #727.
