        Viper
        =====
        Viper is a simple, easy to understand language with easy integration capabilities.
        
        Install
        --------
        | Viper is available for python 3.6+.
        | Viper is now on pypi! It can be installed via
        
        .. code:: sh
        
            python -m pip install viper-lang
        
        The dev version can be installed via
        
        .. code:: sh
        
            python -m pip install -U git+https://github.com/IAmTomahawkx/viper-lang
        
        And can be imported into your project
        
        .. code:: py
        
            import viper
        
        Python Usage
        -------------
        To use Viper in your application, make use of the two eval methods, viper.eval and viper.eval_file functions. These functions
        are asynchronous, and must be run using asyncio, whether that be through the `await` keyword, or something such as `asyncio.run`. \
        The asyncio docs can be found `here <https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio.html#module-asyncio/>`_.
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            import viper
            import asyncio
            code = 'myvar = "hi"'
            asyncio.run(viper.eval(code))
        
        or
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            import asyncio
            import viper
            asyncio.run(viper.eval_file("myfile.vp"))
        
        you can pass defaults to be injected into the namespace, as such
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            import asyncio
            import viper
            asyncio.run(viper.eval("say(myvar)", injected={"myvar": "blue"}))
        
        for more control over the creation, you can create your own `viper.Runtime` instance
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            import asyncio
            import viper
        
            runtime = viper.Runtime("<input>", injected={"myvar": "blue"}, allow_unsafe_imports=False)
            code = "say(myvar)"
            asyncio.run(runtime.run(code))
        
        You can use this to disable features like unsafe modules, such as the `requests` module, or the `files` module.
        
        .. code-block:: python
        
            import asyncio
            import viper
        
            runtime = viper.Runtime("<input>", allow_unsafe_imports=False)
            code = "import files"
            asyncio.run(runtime.run(code))
        
        The above will raise a ViperModuleError.
        
        
        Syntax
        ---------
        
        Variables
        ~~~~~~~~~~
        variables are set like in python, but with a dollar sign ($) in front of the name. variables are retrieved in the same way,
        the name with a dollar sign ($) in front. variables can be marked as `static` by putting `static` in front of the variable
        name. static variables cannot be changed by anything other than intervention in python code
        
        .. code-block::
        
            myvar = "red"
        
            static mystaticvar = "blue"
        
            mystaticvar = "hello"  <-- StaticError
        
        functions
        ~~~~~~~~~~
        
        functions are created either in python and passed to the namespace, or in viper. functions created in viper follow this syntax
        
        .. code-block::
        
            func myfunc() {
                return
            }
        
        quite similar to python, with a few key differences. you may put `static ` in front of the `func` keyword to mark the function as static,
        preventing it from being reassigned.
        
        .. code-block::
        
            static func myfunc() {
                return
            }
        
        arguments look like the following
        
        .. code-block::
        
            func myfunc(argument1, argument2) {
                return
            }
        
        an argument can be made optional by inserting a question mark (?) in front of the argument name, E.x.
        
        .. code-block::
        
            func myfunc(argument1, ?optional_arg1) {
                return
            }
        
        optional arguments that are not given will be passed as a `none` object (note that this is not the same as a python `None`)
        
        functions are called the same as in python:
        
        .. code-block::
        
            func myfunc() {
                return
            }
            myfunc()
        
        builtins
        ~~~~~~~~~
        the viper namespace is left quite empty by default. The following are included in the default namespace:
        - say(\*args) - equivilant to `print` in python.
        - help(obj) - prints an objects help.
        - dir(obj) - lists all attributes an object has.
        
        Types are included in the namespace:
        - `string`
        - `integer`
        - `bool`
        - `dictionary`
        - `list`
        
        there is also `true` / `false`, which are the booleans.
        
        a full example
        ----------------
        
        .. code-block::
        
            static globalvar = "hi"
        
            func name(arg, ?arg1) {
                var = 1
                if (var is 1) {
                    var += 1
                }
                elif (var is not 1) {
                    var = "stuff"
                }
                else {
                    var = none
                }
            }
        
            func main() {
                say("hi")
                name("hello")
            }
            main()
        
        Discord.py integration
        -----------------------
        to make things easier, the `viper.exts.discord` module makes it easy to pass safe objects, with limited accessibility, to viper,
        making it easy to pass discord.py models (indirectly) to your users, without fear of leaking your token and/or other sensitive data. \
        Simply pass a discord.py model to its respective `exts.discord` counterpart, and pass that to your viper namespace
