vision-lang's Issues

Add structures and functions

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Structures and functions can currenlty only created by adding them directly over a very limited java implementation.

Describe the solution you'd like
Create a implementation to create structures and function dynamically during parsing.

Describe alternatives you've considered
There are no alternatives.

Additional context
Structures and functions are already supported, but only by adding them directly in the build ins.

Support file parsing

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, scvis can only parse terminal input. For creating modules and larger projects, file parsing is required.

Describe the solution you'd like
In addition to creating a scanner to the default input stream, add a possibility to also read the content of a file over file input stream and parse all lines after another.

Describe alternatives you've considered
This is required and therefore has no alternatives.

Add statements

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Statements are required to implement strutures and fuctions.

Describe the solution you'd like
Create a new statement interface. Create important statement keywords like space, struc, func, if, else, for, while and import to parse statements

Describe alternatives you've considered
There are currently no alternatives.

Add keyword

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Keywords are required for statements and types.

Describe the solution you'd like
Create important keywords like space, struc, func, if, else, for, while and import.

Describe alternatives you've considered
The keyword names themselve can be changed. For example, space could also be named namespace. However, keywords are required and must be added.

Additional context
No keywords and naming rules are currently implemented.
