Syntax

<key> "value"

Where in JSON it is:

{
"key": "value"
}

Some Long examples include:

<name> "Rajdeep Malakar";
<email> "Rajdeep@tgeeks.cf";
<languages> {
<Python> true;
<JavaScript> true;
<ZypeLang> true;
<C#> false
};
<projects> [
"ZypeC";
"ZypeSDK";
"Compass CLI"
]

And in JSON:

{
"name": "Rajdeep Malakar",
"email": "Rajdeep@tgeeks.cf",
"languages": {
"Python": true,
"JavaScript": true,
"ZypeLang": true,
"C#": false
},
"projects": [
"ZypeC",
"ZypeSDK",
"Compass CLI",
]

It is easier to write than JSON.

How to compile or read ?

To compile or Read Zype Files, you need to either use ZypeSDK (for Python) or to use Compass CLI (for Windows only).

In this tutorial we will cover the usage of Compass CLI . In the next tutorial we will cover the usage of Zype SDK (for Python).

Installation of Compass CLI

Using WinGet:

WinGet install Compass

Or,

WinGet install Zype.Compass

Or, Using MSI Installer:

Download the MSI Installer of Compass CLI (Windows 10 only) v1.1.0 from here.

It will return the version of Compass CLI.

To search all Zype files in a directory, you can run:

compass -s

To read individual files run:

compass <filename>

To save a Cache of a File run:
