Introduction to Cajá ​

Welcome to the Cajá programming language documentation.

Cajá is a modern programming language designed for writing fast, reliable, and expressive code. It embraces a declarative model, meaning it focuses on expressing what to do rather than how to do it, heavily leveraging immutability, data transformations, and pure functions.

Installation ​

You can install the Caja CLI globally using your preferred package manager:

bash
npm install -g @caja/cli
bash
yarn global add @caja/cli
bash
bun add -g @caja/cli

CLI Usage ​

The caja command-line interface allows you to execute .caja scripts, as well as encode and decode them into transportable token strings.

1. Run a Script ​

Parse and evaluate a .caja script file to execute it:

bash
caja run -f <file.caja>

2. Encode a Script ​

Encode a .caja script file and its dependencies into a single base64-like token string:

bash
caja -f <file.caja>

3. Decode a Token ​

Decode a token string back into its original .caja script modules and save them to a directory:

bash
caja <token> -o <output_dir>
