Something I have been wondering is whether it is possible to bundle the joker source of a script and joker itself to share standalone executables
It doesn't seem so but if I read things correctly in main.go
all that would be required is to use joker as a library and to create a new ProcessReader
from a reader
I have answered my own question: https://gist.github.com/bf63ac3a014517cafa371e96fdddfea0
Yeah, I was thinking that'd be the case! Before the gen_code
tool is run (by core/object.go
), via -tags gen_code
to pick up the *_slow_init.go
files (that aren't built into the final executable), the "static-initialization" code that Joker needs hasn't yet been generated.
@pyr cool trick
My rainy sunday experiment with joker: https://gist.github.com/pyr/d5e17af9c572b681a57de52895437298 (small replacement for lein
's default behavior backed by tools.deps)
While I’m fairly certain that @roman.bataev won’t “promise” that the core API will be stable, it looks like a pretty neat hack to me!
Also, I’m unsure as to whether/how that interacts with the startup-time accelerator that’s usually run as part of Joker’s default build script, run.sh
.
yeah, this is certainly not intended or supported use of Joker, but it is cool that you can package it up like this.
