#+TITLE: Flowmetal TODOs
* parser
** TODO Rework the tokens in terms of spans instead of just start points :tokens:parser:
Having start and end information allows for textual display of ranges and other
potentially interesting error formatting. Requires some refactoring.
** TODO Implement load() in the parser :parser:
At present the parser can parse well enough, but it returns a token tree
intended for use in refactoring and autoformatting tools not a direct 'ast' list
tree which is how load() is supposed to behave.
Figure out how to "mixin" implicit unwrapping of token boxes to values when
loading insted of reading.
** DONE Implement parser support for :- type ascriptions :parser:
Maybe this is a special case of keywords, maybe it isn't. Support ⊢ as an alternative. Maybe |- ?
** TODO Think about the difference between reading "data" and reading expression/code syntax :parser:
EDN suggests these two things are largely the same ... but they clearly aren't.
** TODO Do I want to implement #_ reader discard support? :parser:
Reader discard is a convenient alternative to commenting a bunch of stuff out,
but does require a fair bit of complexity in the parser to support properly.
** TODO Do I want to implement #?() reader conditional support? :parser:
Reader conditionals are cool for feature expressions and multiple platforms, but
are of unclear value given that I only have one target for the forseeable and
Flowmetal is already supposed to be a platform agnostic sort of thing.
** DONE Finish out float support
** DONE Implement strings
** TODO Think about what multiple grammars / dialects look like
* TODO Look at Python SQL ORMs :server:storage:
- Must support PostgresQL
- Must support SQLite
The goal is to be able to run the "leader" servers off of postgres and have local
state stores for wokers stored in sqlite using large amounts of the same schema.
Being able to get marshalling and unmarshalling to JSON 'for free' would be
lovely.
* TODO Look at Flask OpenAPI spec stuff :server:
- Ideally want to go spec first
- Must be able to provide validation
- Would be nice to be able to use the spec to drive implementing the app (mounting functions to routes)
