pomelo

A procedural macro to create Lemon-like parsers.

Pomelo is a port to Rust of the Lemon Parser Generator (from now on, Lemon_C) originally written
by D. Richard Hipp for his SQLite parser. It is based on a previous attempt to port Lemon to Rust
(Lemon_Rust), but now it is written as a Rust procedural macro, so it does not contain any of the
original C code (although it uses the same algorithms). Thus the change in name to a different
citrus fruit.

Getting Started

It is recommended to go to crates.io for
the newest released version, as well as links to the newest builds of the docs.

Just add the following dependency to your Cargo manifest:

[dependencies]
pomelo = "*"

Example

use pomelo::pomelo;
pomelo! {
    %type input Vec<i32>;
    %type numbers Vec<i32>;
    %type Number i32;
    input ::= numbers?(A) { A.unwrap_or_else(Vec::new) };
    numbers ::= Number(N) { vec![N] }
    numbers ::= numbers(mut L) Comma Number(N) { L.push(N); L }
}
fn main() -> Result<(), ()> {
    use parser::{Parser, Token};
    //Real world code would use a tokenizer
    let tokens = vec![
        Token::Number(1),
        Token::Comma,
        Token::Number(2),
        Token::Comma,
        Token::Number(3),
    ];
    let mut p = Parser::new();
    for tok in tokens.into_iter() {
        p.parse(tok)?;
    }
    let data = p.end_of_input()?;
    assert_eq!(data, vec![1, 2, 3]);
    Ok(())
}
