Introduction
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[Duktape](http://www.duktape.org/) is an **embeddable Javascript** engine,
|
|
|
|
with a focus on **portability** and **compact** footprint.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Duktape is easy to integrate into a C/C++ project: add `duktape.c` and
|
|
|
|
`duktape.h` to your build, and use the Duktape API to call Ecmascript
|
|
|
|
functions from C code and vice versa.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Main features:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Embeddable, portable, compact
|
|
|
|
* Ecmascript E5/E5.1 compliant
|
|
|
|
* Built-in regular expression engine
|
|
|
|
* Built-in Unicode support
|
|
|
|
* Minimal platform dependencies
|
|
|
|
* Combined reference counting and mark-and-sweep garbage collection with finalization
|
|
|
|
* Liberal license
|

About this repository
|
|
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This repository is **intended for Duktape developers only**, and contains
|
|
|
|
Duktape internals: test cases, internal documentation, sources for the
|
|
|
|
duktape.org web site, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Getting started: end user
|
|
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When embedding Duktape in your application you should use the packaged source
|
|
|
|
distributables available from [duktape.org/download.html](http://www.duktape.org/download.html).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
However, if you really want to use a bleeding edge version:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/svaarala/duktape.git
|
|
|
|
$ cd duktape
|
|
|
|
$ make dist-src
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then use `duktape-<version>.tar.xz` like a normal source distributable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Getting started: developing Duktape
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you intend to change Duktape internals, run test cases, etc:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Install required packages
|
|
|
|
$ sudo apt-get install nodejs npm perl openjdk-7-jre
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Compile the command line tool ('duk')
|
|
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/svaarala/duktape.git
|
|
|
|
$ cd duktape
|
|
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Run Ecmascript and API testcases, and some other tests
|
|
|
|
$ make ecmatest
|
|
|
|
$ make apitest
|
|
|
|
$ make regfuzztest
|
|
|
|
$ make underscoretest # see doc/underscore-status.txt
|
|
|
|
$ make test262test # see doc/test262-status.txt
|
|
|
|
$ make emscriptentest # see doc/emscripten-status.txt
|
|
|
|
$ make jsinterpretertest
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Note: the repo Makefile is intended for Linux developer use**, it is not a
|
|
|
|
multi-platform "end user" Makefile. In particular, the Makefile is not
|
|
|
|
intended to work on e.g. OSX or Windows. The source distributable has more
|
|
|
|
user-friendly Makefile examples, but you should normally simply write your
|
|
|
|
own Makefile when integrating Duktape into your program.
