Asteria (/asˈtɪərɪə/, as-TEAR-ee-uh) is a procedural, dynamically typed
programming language that is highly inspired by JavaScript.
The most notable difference between Asteria and other languages is that the
so-called 'objects' have value semantics. That is, an object is copied when
it is passed to a function by value or is assigned to a variable, just like
values of primitive types.
First, you need to install some dependencies and an appropriate compiler,
which can be done with
# For Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint:# There is usually an outdated version of meson in the system APT source. Do# not use it; instead, install the latest one from pip.
sudo apt-get install ninja-build python3 python3-pip pkgconf g++ \
libpcre2-dev libssl-dev zlib1g-dev libedit-dev
sudo pip3 install meson
# For MSYS2 on Windows:# The `iconv_open()` etc. functions are provided by libiconv. Only the MSYS# shell is supported. Do not try building in the MINGW64 or UCRT64 shell.
pacman -S meson gcc pkgconf pcre2-devel openssl-devel zlib-devel \
libiconv-devel libedit-devel
# For macOS:# The `gcc` command actually denotes Clang, so ask for a specific version# explicitly.
brew install meson pkgconf gcc@10 pcre2 openssl@3 zlib libedit
export CXX='g++-10'
If you need only the library and don't want to build the REPL, you may omit
libedit from the dependencies above, and pass -Denable-repl=false to meson.
