Opal Compiler for Node.js

Opal Compiler for Node.js

Transpile Ruby code to JavaScript in JavaScript!

Usage

Given a Ruby file named hello.rb:

puts "Hello world"

The following code will transpile hello.rb to JavaScript:

const Builder = require('opal-compiler').Builder
// Opal object will be available on the global scope

const builder = Builder.create()
const result = builder.build('hello.rb').toString()
console.log(result)
//(function(Opal) {
//  var self = Opal.top, $scope = Opal, nil = Opal.nil, $breaker = Opal.breaker, $slice = Opal.slice;

//  Opal.add_stubs(['$puts']);
//  return self.$puts("Hello world")
//})(Opal);

opal-node-compiler's Issues

Issues when trying to run in a NextJs app

I'm trying to setup opal-compiler in a NextJs + React App.

As soon as I put const Builder = require('opal-compiler').Builder in the js where I want to use the buildString() function, I get this error stacktrace:

process.stderr is undefined

Now, I get the error is inside opal-runtime src/nodejs.js, and says process.stderr not being defined. The component where I'm using it being used server-side, i.e. it's SSR if the issue is process.stderr not being available on the client side. Is there something I can look at to fix it for NextJs.

Map a the ERB compiler from Opal

https://github.com/opal/opal/blob/master/lib/opal/erb.rb

Add support for generating source map

The Ruby version of Opal supports source maps:

require 'opal'

builder = Opal::Builder.new
builder.append_paths 'lib'
builder.build 'path/to/entrypoint'

code = builder.to_s
source_map = builder.source_map

opal-node-compiler does not expose source map and accessing it directly results in error:

const { Builder: OpalBuilder } = require('opal-compiler')

const builder = OpalBuilder.create()
builder.appendPaths('lib')

const code = builder.build(modulePath).toString()
const sourceMap = builder.$source_map()

SourceMap: uninitialized constant Opal::SourceMap
