There are two JavaScript packages currently available for Squiggle:
|
|
|
|
- [`@quri/squiggle-lang`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@quri/squiggle-lang) 
|
|
- [`@quri/squiggle-components`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@quri/squiggle-components) 
|
|
|
|
Types are available for both packages.
|
|
|
|
## Squiggle Language
|
|
|
|
The `@quri/squiggle-lang` package exports a single function, `run`, which given
|
|
a string of Squiggle code, will execute the code and return any exports and the
|
|
environment created from the squiggle code.
|
|
|
|
`run` has two optional arguments. The first optional argument allows you to set
|
|
sampling settings for Squiggle when representing distributions. The second optional
|
|
argument allows you to pass an environment previously created by another `run`
|
|
call. Passing this environment will mean that all previously declared variables
|
|
in the previous environment will be made available.
|
|
|
|
The return type of `run` is a bit complicated, and comes from auto generated `js`
|
|
code that comes from rescript. We highly recommend using typescript when using
|
|
this library to help navigate the return type.
|
|
|
|
## Squiggle Components
|
|
|
|
The `@quri/squiggle-components` package offers several components and utilities
|
|
for people who want to embed Squiggle components into websites. This documentation
|
|
relies on `@quri/squiggle-components` frequently.
|
|
|
|
We host [a storybook](https://squiggle-components.netlify.app/) with details
|
|
and usage of each of the components made available.
