Diagon is an interactive interpreter. It transforms markdown-style expression into an ascii-art representation.
It is written in C++ and use WebAssembly, HTML and CSS to make a Web Application. We also expose a command line interface and a JS library, for personal and 3rd party tools.
https://arthursonzogni.com/Diagon/
Diagon is also usable as a command line tool. For instance:
echo "1+1/2 + sum(i,0,10) = 113/2" | diagon Math
10
___
1 ╲ 113
1 + ─ + ╱ i = ───
2 ‾‾‾ 2
0 To use it, you can either compile it from source or use the precompiled binaries published on the snapstore:
sudo snap install diagon
It is also available as a Nix package:
nix run github:petertrotman/nixpkgs/Diagon#diagon(A pull request is open to have this merged into NixOS/nixpkgs here)
See the JS library diagonjs
npm i diagonjsimport Diagon from "diagonjs";const diagon = await Diagon.init();
diagon.translate.math("f(x) = 1 + x / (1 + x)", { style: "Unicode" });
// x
// f(x) = 1 + ─────
// 1 + xMake diagon easy to use inside your IDE. Thanks to contributors:

Binaries using multiple formats are provided in the release section.
This depends on cmake, and libboost-graph-dev On Linux:
sudo apt install make libboost-graph-dev cmake default-jdk;
mkdir build;
cd build;
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
make -j
sudo make install If you have Docker installed, the repository includes a Dockerfile for convenient building:
docker build -t diagon .Once built, the image can be invoked like the binary:
docker run diagon Math -- "f(x) = 1 + x / (1 + x)"
echo "f(x) = 1 + x / (1 + x)" | docker run -i diagon Math
This project has been possible thanks to these great projects
