Installation

Larecs🌲 is written in and for Mojo🔥, which needs to be installed in order to compile, test, or use the software. You can build Larecs🌲 as a package as follows:

1. Clone the repository / download the files.
2. Navigate to the src/ subfolder.
3. Execute mojo package larecs.
4. Move the newly created file larecs.mojopkg to your project’s source directory.

Include the source directly when compiling

Instead of building Larecs🌲 as a package, you can also include its source code directly when running or compiling your own project. This has the advantage that you can access the source while debugging and adjusting the Larecs🌲 source code. You can include the Larecs🌲 source code as follows:

mojo run -I "path/to/larecs/src" example.mojo

Include Larecs🌲 in VSCode and its language server

To let VSCode and its language server know of Larecs🌲 (so that Ctrl-Click, mouse hover docs, autocomplete and error checking are available), include the package as follows:

1. Go to VSCode’s File -> Preferences -> Settings page.
2. Go to the Extensions -> Mojo section.
3. Look for the setting Lsp: Include Dirs.
4. Click on add item and insert the path to the src/ subdirectory.
