Scala CodeSheet API

An API to evaluate Scala code. It will output a String representation of every top-level expression. Furthermore, the evaluation engine will generate sample values for functions and classes in order to output a representation of expressions within these.

Right now the library accepts a String and outputs a String.

import com.github.jedesah.codesheet.api.ScalaCodeSheet

val myCode = "val a = ..."
val result: List[String] = ScalaCodeSheet.computeResults(myCode)

But there are plans to output a more structured representation of the result.

Features

You can have a look at the extensive specification for what works and what doesn't here.

If there isn't a test for it, you can probably assume it doesn't work.

Here are some highlights of what it can do right now.

Relatively simple stuff

val a = 45 + 56                                       | a = 101
val b = a + 2                                         | b = 103
def foo(p: Int, z: Boolean) = if (z) p else p -1      | foo(p = 3, z = true) => 3 
foo(b, false)                                         | 102

What about my own types

case class Person(name: String, age: Int)             |
def isElligible(guy: Person, legalAge: Int = 18) = {  | isElligible(guy = Person("foo", 3), legalAge = 18) => false
    val isAdult = guy.age > legalAge                  | isAdult = false
    isAdult || guy.startsWith("Sa")                   | false
}                                                     |
isElligible(Person("Sam", 2))                         | true

What about inheritance?

abstract class Animal {                               |
    def communicate: String                           |
}                                                     |
class Dog extends Animal {                            |
    def communicate = "Wouf!"                         |
}                                                     |
class Cat extends Animal {                            |
    def communicate = "Miow"                          |
}                                                     |
provoke(animal: Animal) = animal.communicate          | provoke(animal = new Dog) => Wouf!

Arguably useless stuff

abstract class Animal {                               |
    def communicate: String                           |
}                                                     |
provoke(animal: Animal) = animal.communicate          | provoke(animal = new Animal { def communicate = "foo" }) = foo
