clink C# Package

This directory contains the production .NET implementation, published as two NuGet packages from a shared source tree:

Package	Project	Install	Use case
clink	Foundation.Data.Doublets.Cli/	dotnet tool install --global clink	Run the CLI without writing any C#.
Foundation.Data.Doublets.Cli	Foundation.Data.Doublets.Cli.Library/	dotnet add package Foundation.Data.Doublets.Cli	Embed the parser, query processors, decorators, named/pinned types, persistent transformation trigger decorator, and LiNo I/O in another .NET project.

The CLI csproj only contains Program.cs plus the System.CommandLine wiring; every reusable type lives in the library project so external apps can recreate or extend the CLI without re-implementing any of the internals.

Install

dotnet tool install --global clink

Update an existing installation:

dotnet tool update --global clink

To consume the library inside another .NET project:

dotnet add package Foundation.Data.Doublets.Cli

API documentation is generated by DocFX from the library's XML doc comments and is published to GitHub Pages alongside the Rust rustdoc site by .github/workflows/docs.yml.

Use

clink '() ((1 1))' --changes --after

The CLI exposes the complete command surface, including persistent transformation triggers with --always, --once, --never, --triggers, --triggers-file, and --embed-triggers. Each option is implemented in the public library, so other .NET applications can call into the same processors directly.

Develop

dotnet restore
dotnet build --configuration Release
dotnet test --configuration Release

Release automation for this package lives in csharp/scripts/ and uses changesets from csharp/.changeset/.
