janet-format

A janet string formatter using Python or {fmt} style format string syntax.

Status

This library is very much a WIP!

Most of the builtin type formatters are implemented. Some are only partially complete though.
Specifically needed:

• format unicode codepoints with c

There are some tests, but they aren't very thorough, especially around the actual format macro.

Docs

See: docs/usage.md, and the examples/ directory.

Limiting C Modules

One of the main goals of this project is to write as much of the formatter in Janet as possible.

At the momement, there are two C/C++ modules int-ext and dragonbox.

• int-ext adds a single function to unwrap int/u64 values, which isn't available in the stdlib.
• dragonbox wraps the dragonbox float-to-decimal conversion.

Hopefully these won't be necessary in the future.
