Compilr

Compilr is a powerful NPM package designed to compile code in multiple programming languages and return the output using a TD's APIs. With a simple API, it allows you to send code to be compiled and executed, and retrieve the results in a straightforward manner.

Features

• Supports Multiple Languages: Compilr supports a wide range of programming languages.
• Easy to Use: Simple methods to compile and execute code.
• Handles Compilation and Execution: Manages the entire process from code submission to result retrieval.
• Error Handling: Provides clear error messages for missing or incorrect inputs.
• Base64 Encoding and Decoding: Handles base64 encoding for code and input data to ensure compatibility with the API.
• Support for Large Codebases: Can handle large codebases by encoding them efficiently in base64 format.

Installation

Install using npm:

npm install compilr

Install using pnpm:

pnpm install compilr

Install using Yarn:

yarn add compilr

Usage

Require the library:

const { CompilerClient, CompilerRequestDto } = require('compilr');

Create a Compiler Client Instance

const compilerClient = new CompilerClient();

Prepare the Code for Compilation

const code = `
for i in range(1, 11):
    print(i)
`;

const requestDto = new CompilerRequestDto(code, 'python');

Compile and Execute the Code

compilerClient
  .compileAndExecute(requestDto)
  .then((response) => {
    console.log('Output:', response.stdout);
    console.log('Compilation Time:', response.time);
    console.log('Memory Usage:', response.memory);
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error('Error:', error.message);
  });

API Reference

CompilerClient

Compiles and executes the given code.

• Parameters:

  • data: An instance of CompilerRequestDto containing the code, language, and optional input.

• Returns:

  • A Promise that resolves to an instance of CompilerResponseDto containing the output, compilation time, memory usage, and other details.

CompilerRequestDto

A DTO (Data Transfer Object) representing the request data for compilation.

• Properties:
  • code (string): The source code to be compiled.
  • language (string): The programming language of the source code.
  • stdin (string, optional): The standard input for the program.

CompilerResponseDto

A DTO representing the response data from the compilation and execution.

• Properties:
  • stdout (string | null): The standard output of the program.
  • time (string): The time taken for compilation.
  • memory (number): The memory used during execution.
  • stderr (string | null): The standard error output of the program.
  • token (string): The unique token for the compilation request.
  • compile_output (string | null): The output of the compilation process.
  • message (string): Any additional messages from the server.
  • status (object): The status of the compilation request, with id and description.

Error Handling

Compilr provides clear error messages for common issues such as missing required fields or unsupported languages.

Example Error Handling

try {
  await compilerClient.compileAndExecute(requestDto);
} catch (error) {
  console.error('Error:', error.message);
}
