@std/app
There are three concepts currently in app, process start and exit management, stdout writing, and stderr writing.
If your application needs to trigger explicit execution on startup (eg, it's not a web server) then you would register a listener on the start event:
event start: void
When you want to terminate the process, you would emit an exit code at the exit event:
event exit: int8
To write to stdout you either directly emit strings to the stdout event:
event stdout: string
Or you can call print with any type that matches the Stringifiable interface:
fn print(Stringifiable): void
print automatically appends a newline character to the output.
To write to stderr you either directly emit strings to the stderr event:
event stderr: string
Or you can call eprint with any type that matches the Stringifiable interface:
fn eprint(Stringifiable): void
eprint automatically appends a newline character to the output.
Eventually process arguments and stdin will be accessible here, but this is not yet the case.
