sealang

library1.0.5jsnpmunverified

SEALang is a superset of Perl5 with static typing, transpiled to Perl5 via Node.js. Version 1.0.5 (latest) is in early active development with a focus on adding static typing and modern features to Perl. It provides a schema API to generate Perl5 code for a compiler, but is not yet stable for production use. Key differentiators: brings static typing to Perl5, uses JavaScript/Node for tooling, and provides object-oriented primitives like Map, Array, Hash, and Scalar.

Install & Compatibility

Where this runs

No compatibility data collected yet for this library.

Code

Verified usage

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

SEASchema

✓ const { SEASchema } = require('sealang');

✗ import { SEASchema } from 'sealang'; // Not a standard ES module

Package uses CommonJS. Not available as ES module.

SEACompiler

✓ const { SEACompiler } = require('sealang');

✗ import SEACompiler from 'sealang';

Named export, not default. Use destructured require.

exportSEA

✓ const { exportSEA } = require('sealang');

✗ const exportSEA = require('sealang/export'); // Wrong path

Exported from main entry, not a subpath.

Creates a SEASchema, adds a routine, and compiles it to Perl5 code using SEACompiler.

const { SEASchema, SEACompiler } = require('sealang'); const schema = new SEASchema(); schema.addRoutine('hello', () => { console.log('Hello, SEALang!'); }); const compiler = new SEACompiler(schema); const perlCode = compiler.compile(); console.log(perlCode);

Debug

Known issues

gotchaPackage is in early development; API may break without major version bump.

fix

Pin to exact version and test upgrades thoroughly.

affects: >=0.0.0

breakingES module imports are not supported; only CommonJS require works.

fix

Use `const { ... } = require('sealang')` instead of `import`.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaDocumentation is sparse; source code may be the only reference for advanced usage.

fix

Read the GitHub source files for API details.

affects: >=1.0.0

deprecatedThe roadmap includes items marked as done but those features may still be unstable.

fix

Test each feature in isolation before relying on it.

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Cannot find module 'sealang'

Package not installed or module path incorrect.

fix

Run `npm install sealang` and ensure node_modules is in the correct directory.

TypeError: SEASchema is not a constructor

Importing SEASchema without destructuring (e.g., const SEASchema = require('sealang'))

fix

Use const { SEASchema } = require('sealang');

SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'export'

Attempting to import using ES module syntax in a CommonJS context.

fix

Use require() instead of import.
