Default Implementation

The default implementation works as follows:

• The representation.txt contains the concatenated solution files
  • Solution files are separated by an empty line
  • Solution files are identified via the the .files.solution[] property in the .meta/config.json file
• The mapping.json contains an empty JSON object ({})

Normalizations

• Blank files in the solution files are removed in the representation.txt
• Line-based trailing whitespace in the solution files is removed in the representation.txt

Exercism Raku Representer

The Docker image to automatically create a representation for Raku solutions submitted to Exercism.

Run the representer

To create a representation for an arbitrary exercise, do the following:

1. Open a terminal in the project's root
2. Run ./bin/run.sh <exercise-slug> <solution-dir> <output-dir>

Once the representer has finished, its results will be written to <output-dir>/representation.txt and <output-dir>/mapping.json.

Run the representer on an exercise using Docker

This script is provided for testing purposes, as it mimics how representers run in Exercism's production environment.

To create a representation for an using the Docker image, do the following:

1. Open a terminal in the project's root
2. Run ./bin/run-in-docker.sh <exercise-slug> <solution-dir> <output-dir>

Once the representer has finished, its results will be written to <output-dir>/representation.txt and <output-dir>/mapping.json.

Run the tests

To run the tests to verify the behavior of the representer, do the following:

1. Open a terminal in the project's root
2. Run ./bin/run-tests.sh

These are golden tests that compare the representation.txt and mapping.json generated by running the current state of the code against the "known good" tests/<test-name>/representation.txt and tests/<test-name>/mapping.json. All files created during the test run itself are discarded.

When you've made modifications to the code that will result in a new "golden" state, you'll need to generate and commit a new tests/<test-name>/representation.txt and tests/<test-name>/mapping.json file.
