Essential Interpreters explores the functional programming uber-pattern, the interpreter, showing many different techniques for building interpreters in Scala.
Advanced Scala uses Underscore's ebook build system.
The simplest way to build the book is to use Docker Compose:
- install Docker Compose (
brew install docker-compose
on OS X; or download from docker.com); and - run
go.sh
(ordocker-compose run book bash
ifgo.sh
doesn't work).
This will open a bash
shell running inside the Docker container which contains all the dependencies to build the book. From the shell run:
npm install
; and thensbt
.
Within sbt
you can issue the commands pdf
, html
, epub
, or all
to build the desired version(s) of the book. Targets are placed in the dist
directory:
