Charles KWON OhJun aeccfe5c48 Initial bootstrap: fnode CLI + hbrtl_ext pipeline
* cmd/fnode — build/run CLI that drives Five's compiler packages
  (pp, parser, analyzer, gengo) and stitches generated prg_*.go
  together with fivenode_go's own hbrtl_ext/* packages in a temp
  module. Result is one self-contained Go binary; no FFI, no Node.

* hbrtl_ext/hello — bootstrap RTL extension proving the
  blank-import-init() registration path works end-to-end. Exposes
  FNODE_HELLO() to PRG.

* app/hello.prg — minimum end-to-end test: calls Date() (Five RTL)
  and FNODE_HELLO() (fivenode_go RTL) from the same binary.

Verified: ./fnode build app/hello.prg -o hello_app → 17 MB single
binary that prints both lines. The same pattern will host the
HTTP server, bridge capi helpers, and PostgreSQL client coming
in 1a.2b–1a.4.

fivenode_go

FiveNode for Five — a Harbour-compatible web framework that compiles to a single Go binary. No Node.js, no FFI, no Apache. PRG sources go in, one executable comes out.

Successor to the koffi/N-API based fivenode framework, rebuilt on the Five Pure-Go runtime.

Status

Early bootstrap — Phase 1a in progress.

Architecture

Browser ──── HTTP/HTTPS ──── fivenode_go single binary
                              ├─ Five hbrt VM (PRG interpreter / compiled)
                              ├─ Five hbrtl (483 standard RTL functions)
                              ├─ hbrtl_ext/httpserver  — HTTP server RTL
                              ├─ hbrtl_ext/capi        — bridge_*.prg helpers
                              ├─ hbrtl_ext/pgrtl       — PostgreSQL client RTL
                              ├─ app/                  — bridge_*.prg + app PRG
                              └─ go:embed              — static assets

fnode build api/*.prg --extra-rtl=hbrtl_ext/... -o myapp produces a self-contained binary. No external dependencies beyond what the app code itself opens (e.g. a Postgres connection).

Build

go build -o fnode ./cmd/fnode
./fnode build app/hello.prg -o hello
./hello
