library0.1.3jsnpmunverified

ChavaScript is a language transpiler (v0.1.3) that translates Hebrew-based syntax into JavaScript. It exposes parse, transpile, and run functions using acorn under the hood. Unlike alternatives like HebML or other multilingual programming languages, ChavaScript focuses on a minimal, intuitive mapping of keywords to JavaScript constructs. The package is experimental and has a low release cadence.

Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

chavascript

✓ import * as chavascript from 'chavascript'

✗ const chavascript = require('chavascript')

ESM import pattern; CJS require works but is not recommended for future versions.

parse

✓ import { parse } from 'chavascript'

✗ const { parse } = require('chavascript')

Named export available for ESM.

transpile

✓ import { transpile } from 'chavascript'

Named export for transpiling ChavaScript to JavaScript.

Demonstrates parse, transpile, and run with a Hebrew-based ChavaScript example.

import { parse, transpile, run } from 'chavascript'; const code = ` יכולת אחד() { יהי א = 12; בקרה.תעד(א); } אחד(); `; // Parse into AST const ast = parse(code); console.log('AST:', JSON.stringify(ast, null, 2)); // Transpile to JavaScript const js = transpile(code); console.log('JS:', js); // Execute and see output run(code);

Debug

Known issues

gotchaOptions passed to parse are forwarded to acorn; unsupported acorn options may cause errors.

fix

Only use acorn options that are documented: ecmaVersion, sourceType, locations, etc.

affects: >=0.1.0

deprecatedThe require('chavascript') CommonJS pattern may be removed in future versions.

fix

Use ESM import syntax instead.

affects: >=0.1.3

gotchaChavaScript transpiles to JavaScript, but variable names are not transliterated (e.g., Hebrew identifiers remain).

fix

Ensure your runtime supports Unicode identifiers (Node.js 12+).

affects: >=0.1.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

SyntaxError: Unexpected token

ChavaScript code has a typo in Hebrew keyword.

fix

Double-check spelling of Hebrew keywords like 'יכולת' (function) and 'יהי' (let).

TypeError: parse is not a function

Using named import incorrectly with CJS require.

fix

Use default import: const chavascript = require('chavascript'); chavascript.parse(...). Or switch to ESM.
