GitHub - olhado/dicer: dice string parser and roller

NOW DEPRECATED!

Dicer is still available on hex.pm, but will not be worked on anymore. Check out my new replacement project at gitlab.com named Rollex.

Dicer

A dice roller expression evaluator written in Elixir!

Installation

Pre-requisites

  • Erlang 17 or greater
  • Elixir 1.0.1
  • git (to clone the repository)

Creating a command line binary

mix escript.build

From here, execute rolls like this:

$ dicer "1+2+3"

Running in interactive shell

iex -S mix

From here, execute rolls like this:

iex(1)> Dicer.roll "1+2+3"

Adding as a mix dependency

In your mix.exs file:

  def application do
    [mod: {MyApp, []},
     applications: [:dicer]]
  end

and this:

  defp deps do
    [{:dicer, "0.4.0"}]
  end

Details

Dicer is an elixir application that lets you evaluate dice rolls with simple arithmetic operators.

  • The operators supported are +, -, /, *.
  • Grouping is via parentheses
  • Polyhedral dice are designated using the <quantity>d<sides> format (Ex. 20d8 or D100).
  • Fudge/Fate dice are designated using the <quantity>dF format (Ex. 42dF)
  • You can ask Dicer to take the top or bottom X rolls via the ^<quantity> (take top) and v<quantity> (take bottom) symbols (Ex. 10d100^5 [take top 5 results from 10 rolls of a 100-sided die])

Why?

Because it was a fun, somewhat non-trivial way to work in Elixir.

Thanks

Thanks to Lukasz Wrobel for his short series on parsing. Part 3 was my template for my code, even if it took me way too long to translate the loops into recursive function calls!
