Runtime

Basic Usage

talos run [options...] [script] [argv...]

Runs a given Talos script, which can be an absolute or relative file.

Typing Options

--lint

Enables additional linting diagnostics. If any linting errors occur during the analysis phase, these will cause an immediate failure. Alternatively, the talos lint subcommand can be used.

--hints

Enables hint-based diagnostics. These includes type-checking and linting diagnostics that are declared with either a hint or info type.

Compilation Options

--optless

Disables all available runtime optimizations, including some that are enabled by the type-system. This is currently useful for sometimes catching runtime bugs.

--jitless (Experimental)

Disables runtime allocation of executable memory. This may be required for security reasons, however disabling may result in a severe performance impact.

Environment Options

--env (Unimplemented)

Specifies a local environment file to load environment variables from. If the given file does not exist, a warning will be shown if the --verbose flag is also enabled.

--verbose

Enables additional verbose output describing the analysis phase of the runtime. During startup, a module graph is constructed and analyzed in reverse from the entry-script. For larger projects, seeing the progress of analysis and compilation may help with determining the complexity of scripts.

Terminating Programs

To stop a running program, the keyboard shortcut CTRL + C can be used.
