Key Features
Interactive Development
- Enhanced Input: Rustyline for advanced command-line editing
- Script Editing: Temporary file editing with external editors
- Syntax Highlighting: Enhanced script development experience
Dual Execution Modes
- Local Execution: Direct engine execution for development
- Remote Execution: Worker-based execution for production testing
- Seamless Switching: Easy mode transitions during development
Integrated Worker Management
- Worker Spawning: Automatic worker process management
- Lifecycle Control: Start, stop, and restart worker processes
- Status Monitoring: Real-time worker health and performance
Dependencies
- Rhai Client: Integration with rhailib client for remote execution
- Rhailib Engine: Direct engine access for local execution
- Rhailib Worker: Embedded worker management capabilities
- Enhanced CLI: Rustyline for superior REPL experience
- Async Runtime: Tokio for concurrent operations
Usage Patterns
The REPL serves as the primary development interface for rhailib, providing developers with immediate feedback and testing capabilities for Rhai scripts and business logic.
