RustScript is a scripting language with as much relation to Rust as JavaScript has to Java.

📥 Install

Download the latest version of this version of the RustScript CLI tool, or view all releases.

Usage

🔌Run

Don't forget to download the latest version from above, and install the RustScript toolchain as described in the README.md installation instructions file that comes pre-packaged.

Run the rsc command with either the --help or -h option to show the user manual or help page for the CLI tool. Execute scripts using the following command.

rsc hello.rs world.rs

Or if you haven't installed the native CLI binaries, run the rsc.jar file using:

java -jar rsc.jar hello.rs

🔨 Build

If you want to build RustScript on your own. Install the WiX Toolset (dist/tools/wix311.exe) and run the build.bat script from the root directory to build the Cli.java class into the standalone executables to dist/bin/.

You can also simply compile the class files by running the compile.bat script from the root directory, and run any module using java Repl for example.

Documentation

Learn more about the RustScript language by visiting the links below! A good tip is to download the rsc CLI tool and start playing around with the examples yourself!

• Code examples

• Project euler solutions

REPL

Start the interactive REPL command tool by running rsc -r or rsc --repl. Once started, a little > will appear prompting for an expression to evaluate. You can run anything here as long as it is kept on one line. Expression can be easily separated by semi-colons ;, and their result will be displayed belowed.

There are also a set of custom commands used when moving around in the local file system. This is done to make it easier to navigate to files that you want to import variables from into your session.

Commands

Command	Arguments	Description
pwd		Display the current working directory
ls		List all files in the current working directory
cd	[path]	Change current working directory
