Split out language files into a separate module #16

Closed rramphal closed 3 years ago

rramphal commented 4 years ago

@vvasuki suggested that we split out the language files into another repo to be used as a git submodule (https://github.com/sanskrit/sanscript.js/pull/13#issuecomment-668956253), but we could also consider publishing them as an npm module under the @sanskrit-coders namespace.

@psvenk - Which programming language were you particularly interested in adapting sanscirpt to? python and php adaptions exist.

psvenk commented 4 years ago

@vvasuki I was initially just playing with implementing it in Haskell but then realized that the specification of schemes would be much too verbose unless I moved it out into separate file in something like JSON or TOML and parsed that using a library such as aeson (it seems that there are no libraries that automatically generate Haskell types from the schema, so that would probably entail redefining the schema in terms of Haskell types manually, though this could be eased by using aeson-schemas).

I was able to find the PHP and Java implementations, but https://github.com/sanskrit/sanscript.py is an empty repository. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Python is at http://github.com/sanskrit-coders/indic_transliteration .

Scala (not a sanscript port) is at http://github.com/sanskrit-coders/indic-transliteration

This is no longer necessary after @vvasuki's submodule changes from July 2021. Closing.
