library1.2.2jsnpmunverified

BayLang Compiler (v1.2.2) is the core compiler for the BayLang programming language, a full-stack language that automatically splits code into backend and frontend, supporting reactivity and server-side rendering. This package compiles BayLang to Node.js. Release cadence is irregular, with recent updates adding frontend component support (1.2.2), HTML template translation (1.2.1), and async/await features (1.2). Key differentiator: single codebase for both client and server with automatic platform adaptation. Designed for web application, website, and CRM development with an integrated constructor and widget ecosystem.

Known issues

breakingVersion 1.0 removed legacy runtime core; existing projects must update imports.

fix

Use new Runtime from 'bay-lang' instead of separate 'bay-lang-runtime' package.

affects: >=1.0

deprecatedThe CLI command 'bay-lang-nodejs version' is deprecated; use 'bay-lang version'.

fix

Use 'npx bay-lang version' or call programmatically.

affects: >=1.2

gotchaESM-only from version 1.0; CommonJS require() will fail.

fix

Use import statements or dynamic import().

affects: >=1.0

breakingVersion 0.7.0 changed lambda syntax from 'fn' to 'pure' for functions.

fix

Replace 'fn' keyword with 'pure' in BayLang source.

affects: >=0.7.0

gotchaBayLang compiler requires Node.js >=14; older versions may have runtime issues.

fix

Upgrade Node.js to version 14 or higher.

affects: >=1.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Cannot find module 'bay-lang'

Package not installed or ESM import used in CommonJS environment.

fix

Run 'npm install bay-lang' and use dynamic import: 'const bayLang = await import('bay-lang');'

TypeError: bayLang.compile is not a function

Default import instead of named import for compile.

fix

Use 'import { compile } from 'bay-lang';' instead of default import.

SyntaxError: The requested module 'bay-lang' does not provide an export named 'compile'

Using named import with a version that exports differently (pre-1.0).

fix

Check package version; upgrade to >=1.0 or use default import 'import bayLang from 'bay-lang'' then bayLang.compile.

Error: Unsupported target 'react'

Only 'nodejs' and 'php' targets supported; 'react' is not valid.

fix

Use target 'nodejs' for frontend or 'php' for backend.
