Toycheck

An OCaml clone of https://github.com/igstan/itake-2015.

Getting Started

• Run docker-compose build and wait awhile.
• Once that's done, get a prompt in the container with docker-compose run toycheck /bin/bash.
• Initialize opam: eval $(opam env).
• Install project dependencies: opam install -y . --deps-only --with-test.
• Build the project: dune build.
• Open up VSCode and, if you haven't already, install the VSCode OCaml Platform extension.
• Connect to the toycheck container in the "Remote Explorer" tab in VSCode. You'll want to open a project in the home/devuser/toycheck directory.

That's it! You should be set up with autocompletion and ready to go.

Obviously I don't expect anyone but myself to work on this project, since it's just a way for me to learn OCaml. But I do think that this is a relatively nice and easy OCaml setup which can be reused for other projects.

TODO

• Parser, inference, all that good stuff.
• Setup "OCaml Platform" VSCode extension when building docker container (maybe using devcontainer.json).
• Experiment with using Cram tests instead of OUnit.
• Build OCaml project dependencies into Docker image.
