This update provides significantly improved resolution of #export/#import.

API Changes

The unbodied usage of #export("exportkey", value) now supports any acceptable single parameter as the exported value. Example uses:

// Exports context variable
#export("isAdmin", admin)
// Exports an expression
#export("specialKey", username == "tdotclare")
// Exports a custom tag call
#export("baseURL", baseURL())

#import can now be used inside parameters, allowing behavior like:

#if(import("showSidebar")): <div id="sidebar"><div>  #endif

Observable Behavior Changes/Fixes

  • Fixes Issue #57 - #import syntaxes are now correctly replaced when nested inside other objects like loops

Internal Changes

  • Syntax.Conditional is now a chained-block struct instead of linked classes
  • Adds BodiedSyntax protocol to applicable Syntaxes, replacing monolithic extensions
    • Publish & maintain external or import dependency sets for adherants
    • Provide inlineRefs methods to adherents to self-rebuild
  • Smarter LeafAST resolution
  • Provides applicable import capabilities to ParameterDescription and Parameter
