Generates Pony actor code from ActorSimulation DSL.
Pony is a capabilities-secure, actor-model language that provides:
- Type safety and memory safety
- Data-race freedom and deadlock freedom
- Zero-cost actors with async message passing
- Built-in testing with PonyTest
This generator creates production-ready Pony projects with:
- Actor implementations with behaviors
- Callback traits for custom behavior
- PonyTest test suites
- Corral dependency management
- CI/CD pipeline
- Complete documentation
Example
simulation = ActorSimulation.new()
|> ActorSimulation.add_actor(:sender,
send_pattern: {:periodic, 100, :msg},
targets: [:receiver])
|> ActorSimulation.add_actor(:receiver)
