This change overhauls the core of how types are used by the entire compiler. In particular, we now have an ast.Type, and have begun using its use where appropriate. An ast.Type is a union representing precisely one of the possible sources of types in the system: * Primitive type: any, bool, number, string, or service. * Stack type: a resolved reference to an actual concrete stack. * Schema type: a resolved reference to an actual concrete schema. * Unresolved reference: a textual reference that hasn't yet been resolved to a concrete artifact. * Uninstantiated reference: a reference that has been resolved to an uninstantiated stack, but hasn't been bound to a concrete result yet. Right now, this can point to a stack, however eventually we would imagine this supporting inter-stack schema references also. * Decorated type: either an array or a map; in the array case, there is a single inner element type; in the map case, there are two, the keys and values; in all cases, the type recurses to any of the possibilities listed here. All of the relevant AST nodes have been overhauled accordingly. In addition to this, we now have an ast.Schema type. It is loosely modeled on JSON Schema in its capabilities (http://json-schema.org/). Although we parse and perform some visitation and binding of these, there are mostly placeholders left in the code for the interesting aspects, such as registering symbols, resolving dependencies, and typechecking usage of schema types. This is part of the ongoing work behind marapongo/mu#9. |

Mu
Mu is a framework and toolset for creating reusable stacks of services.
Building and Testing
To build Mu, first clone it into a standard Go workspace:
$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/marapongo
$ git clone git@github.com:marapongo/mu $GOPATH/src/github.com/marapongo/mu
A good default value for GOPATH is ~/go.
Mu needs to know where to look for its runtime, library, etc. By default, it will look in /usr/local/mu, however you
can override this with the MUPATH variable. Normally it's easiest just to create a symlink:
$ ln -s $GOPATH/src/github.com/marapongo/mu /usr/local/mu
There is one additional build-time dependency, golint, which can be installed using:
$ go get -u github.com/golang/lint/golint
And placed on your path by:
$ export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
At this point you should be able to build and run tests from the root directory:
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/marapongo/mu
$ make
This installs the mu binary into $GOPATH/bin, which may now be run provided make exited successfully.
