Internal abstract syntax tree

can notebooks will store notes as a json representation of a normalised abstract syntax tree.

Backlinks

• can-address
  • The can-address command will take a string of can's internal AST representation through stdio and output the address of that AST.
• can-ast-at
  • The can-ast-at command should accept a note address through stdin. It should pipe the internal AST for that address into stdout. If no note is found at that address, the process should exit with a code of 2.
• can-md
  • The can-md command should take a string of markdown through standard input and will output can's internal ast format for the provided markdown. The default note format will be markdown.
• can-note-graph
  • can-note-graph constructs a list of addressed notes with metadata and AST fully prepared for storage. The AST should have any internal links pointing at an address rather than a filename.
