//! This module implements a compiler for compiling the rnix AST //! representation to Tvix bytecode. //! //! A note on `unwrap()`: This module contains a lot of calls to //! `unwrap()` or `expect(...)` on data structures returned by `rnix`. //! The reason for this is that rnix uses the same data structures to //! represent broken and correct ASTs, so all typed AST variants have //! the ability to represent an incorrect node. //! //! However, at the time that the AST is passed to the compiler we //! have verified that `rnix` considers the code to be correct, so all //! variants are fulfilled. In cases where the invariant is guaranteed //! by the code in this module, `debug_assert!` has been used to catch //! mistakes early during development. use path_clean::PathClean; use rnix::ast::{self, AstToken, HasEntry}; use rowan::ast::AstNode; use std::path::{Path, PathBuf}; use crate::chunk::Chunk; use crate::errors::{Error, ErrorKind, EvalResult}; use crate::opcode::{CodeIdx, OpCode}; use crate::value::Value; use crate::warnings::{EvalWarning, WarningKind}; /// Represents the result of compiling a piece of Nix code.
