What if vbscript can import other vbs files as modules, what if vbscript classes extends and what if...

VbsNext (Core scripts)

Inspired by the revolutionary transformation of Javascript from browser to nodejs and beyond, this project is an attempt to see how far our favorite VB script (.vbs / .wsf) can be extended to give the wings it needed to fly.

Usage

npm install @vbsnext/vbsnext-core

Run your primary vbs script through vbsnext CLI to resolve Include(), Echox, Class extends and other keywords

npx vbsnext <yourscirpt.vbs>

Resultant build file will be stored to build direcotry with suffix "-build.vbs"

Suggestions are welcome

TO-DO

1. Import core libraries as Node packges instead of pre-importing
2. Rendering both vbs and js (Jscirpt)
3. Minify the build vbs scripts
4. Prettify the project vbs scripts
5. Test Assertions Object
6. Test Suite to run all tests

vbsnext-core's Issues

npx vbspm-build (or similar) command should bundle all the Include & Import scripts including index or the main script. After this command only one build\bundle.vbs will be available to be able to run with cscript/wscript

Commit 9013c93 includes this fix
