# Raven

First off, the name is not a play on `Rust + maven`, but `maven` and my uni's
mascot.

Second, this is meant to be a *simple* tool to manage *simple* Java projects
from the command line with sanity.

It takes inspiration from Cargo, and essentially serves as a sanity-preserving
wrapper for `javac` and `java`.

## Installing

Installing with `cargo`:

```bash
cargo install --git https://gitea.cutieguwu.ca/Cutieguwu/raven.git --branch master
```

`raven` will likely fall back to panicking in various scenarios. This will be
worked out over time.

`raven` is only tested under linux. NT and Darwin support is **not** guaranteed.

WSL *may* affect the behaviour of raven. Quirks to be worked out.

## Getting Started

```bash
raven new demo
cd demo
raven run main.Main
```

## Future plans

- [ ] Fix `raven test`. Totally borked.
- [ ] Make `nest run` fall back to an entry point specified in Nest.toml, when
    none provided.
- [ ] Fix project structure, eliminate inter-dependencies.
  - [ ] Separate out `java.rs` into a dedicated wrapper library.
- [ ] Possibly add support for pulling remote packages via `nest add`. This
    will be implemented should there arise a need.
- [ ] Wrap errors properly, instead of hap-hazardly using `anyhow`
- [ ] Maybe proper logging?
- [ ] Make `fs::expand_files()` skip over non-`.java` files or properly handle
    that.
- [ ] Fix using hashes to avoid unnesscesary recompilation.
