Rust Language Binding about pkl HOT 11 OPEN

Inded pkl-go is a good example for you to base your implementation on.
Also, take a look here for the message passing specification.

Go for it - not started anything. Translating the go repo is a solid strategy

https://pkl-lang.org/main/current/bindings-specification/index.html might be some info here?

Current repository. I'm essentially duplicating the pkl-go repository and translating to rust.

Interested in contributing. I'll take a look.

As far as I know @jackkleeman was looking at this also, but I don't know whether he made a start anywhere.

Do we need to encode the field names in the message passing standard? I am assuming yes, since it would be hard for pkl to guess positional arguments in something like

[
  0x20,
  {
    "file:",
    true,
    true,
  }
]

For context, I'm attempting to use the rmp_serde package to serialize the messages, but I'm not sure how to force it to encode field names, so if anyone has any ideas or experience that would be mighty helpful.

That's the page that prompts my question, I'm going to assume messages need to be formatted more or less exactly the same as what's shown unless there is evidence to suggest otherwise.

Including for posterity sake that I managed to figure it out. See the corresponding issue in my repo.

Does anyone know if there is a way to get the pkl server to read input from a fifo or some other method of IPC? I'm trying to debug my communications between the rust program and the server and am having some difficulties.

from pkl.

I think it just reads stdin, but you should be able to exec the process using any file as stdin, including a fifo?
