A project to convert F# quotations to javascript

You can play with the converter at http://fscript.justsimplecode.com

To get up and running with FSharp.Javascript

Reference the FSharp.Javascript.dll For simple quotation conversion use the below code:

open FSharp.Javascript.Converter open FSharp.Javascript.Dom

let javascript = convert <@ let i = 0 alert(i) @>

To convert a module to javascript:

open FSharp.Javascript.Converter

let javascript = convertModule (System.Type.GetType("MyModule, MyAssembly"))

The module compiler does not support converting standalone initialization calls, e.g.:

module MyModule

[<ReflectedDefinition>] let func() = 1

//this will not show up in the converted javascript func()

This is because the F# quotations system does not support this feature.

Also remember that all function definitions that you want to convert must be decorated with the [<ReflectedDefinition>] attribute.

You can also use jquery with

open FSharp.Javascript.Jquery
