<elekdra.scripting>

Declaration of some scripts.

Description

With this tag you can include user implemented scripts that can be referenced by Elekdra, for example by a <elekdra.signal>.
See also this web site for general information about the Elekdra scripting concepts.

Example

JavaScript is the only script language that is already included in a Java Runtime Environment from Oracle, so we use it here.

<elekdra.scripting>
	<engine>JavaScript</engine>
	<script>
		<name>hugo</name>
		<code>
			<![CDATA[
				println("hello world");
			]]>
		</code>
	</script>
</elekdra.scripting>
