rusthon is a minimalist transpilation tool that converts a subset of the Python language to Rust. Designed to help developers grasp the basic concepts of transpilation, Rusthon provides a direct translation of common Python constructs to their Rust counterparts.
Currently, Rusthon supports the transpilation of the following constructs:
- Functions with typed arguments and a typed return.
- Basic arithmetic operations (+, -, *, /).
- Function calls.
- Variable assignments.
- The conditional declaration if name == "main":.
- The print() function.
- For loop and range()
- Class definitions
- using types is better:
def __init__(self, name: str, age: int)
- using types is better:
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/urso-ai/rusthon.git
cd rusthon
- Place your Python code in the
test_sample.pyfile. - Run
main.py:
python main.py
- The resulting Rust code will be diplayed on the standard output.
Rusthon is a teaching tool designed to transpile a specific subset of Python. As such, many Python language constructs, such as loops, classes, and exception handling, are not yet supported. Contributions to expand functionality are welcome!
