Modules

Graphix has a module system for organizing code into projects and controlling what parts of a module are publicly accessible.

Current features include:

• module hierarchies
• implementation files (.gx) for module code
• interface files (.gxi) for defining module APIs and controlling visibility
• explicit imports with renaming (use a::b as c) and glob imports (use a::*)
• relative paths from self, super, and package roots
• modules stored in files or netidx
• modules dynamically loadable at runtime

Name resolution follows the same discipline as Rust 2018: every name in scope arrived by an explicit declaration, an explicit use, or one of the two preludes (the core prelude and the installed package names). See Use for the import rules.
