Imports and Modules

Imports make module boundaries explicit while the prelude keeps common names available.

Prelude

Core types, Option, Result, List, Dict, Set, String, and console helpers are available by default.

items: List[Int] = [1, 2, 3]
print(items.length())

Import just the functions you want with module: name.

import:
	json: parse_json

Use module as Alias for a qualified namespace.

import:
	json as Json


func main(args: List[String]) -> Void:
	parsed = Json.parse_json("{}")

A .brp file can be imported as a module by path.

import:
    ./scores as Scores

print(Scores.classify(82))

private keeps helpers inside their module.

private pure func helper(n: Int) -> Int:
	n + 1

scores.brp + main.brp

import:
	./scores as Scores


func main(args: List[String]) -> Void:
	print(Scores.classify(82)) -- prints: passing

terminal

blorp run main.brp
