type ('a, 'kind) parser

Monad producing a value of type 'a by parsing an input composed of a sequence of S-expressions.

The input can be seen either as a plain sequence of S-expressions or a list of fields. The 'kind parameter indicates how the input is seen:

  • with

    'kind = [values]

    , the input is seen as an ordered sequence of S-expressions

  • with

    'kind = [fields]

    , the input is seen as an unordered sequence of fields

A field is a S-expression of the form: (<atom> <values>...) where atom is a plain atom, i.e. not a quoted string and not containing variables. values is a sequence of zero, one or more S-expressions.

It is possible to switch between the two mode at any time using the appropriate combinator. Some primitives can be used in both mode while some are specific to one mode.

type values
type fields
type 'a t = ('a, values) parser
type 'a fields_parser = ('a, fields) parser
val parse : 'a t -> Univ_map.t -> ast -> 'a

parse parser context sexp parse a S-expression using the following parser. The input consist of a single S-expression. context allows to pass extra information such as versions to individual parsers.

val return : 'a -> ('a, _) parser
val (>>=) : ('a, 'k) parser -> ('a -> ('b, 'k) parser) -> ('b, 'k) parser
val (>>|) : ('a, 'k) parser -> ('a -> 'b) -> ('b, 'k) parser
val (>>>) : (unit, 'k) parser -> ('a, 'k) parser -> ('a, 'k) parser
val map : ('a, 'k) parser -> f:('a -> 'b) -> ('b, 'k) parser
val try_ : ('a, 'k) parser -> (exn -> ('a, 'k) parser) -> ('a, 'k) parser
val get : 'a Univ_map.Key.t -> ('a option, _) parser

Access to the context

val set : 'a Univ_map.Key.t -> 'a -> ('b, 'k) parser -> ('b, 'k) parser
val get_all : (Univ_map.t, _) parser
val set_many : Univ_map.t -> ('a, 'k) parser -> ('a, 'k) parser
val loc : (Loc.t, _) parser

Return the location of the list currently being parsed.

val eos : (bool, _) parser

End of sequence condition. Returns true iff they are no more S-expressions to parse

type kind =
  1. | Values of Loc.t * string option
  2. | Fields of Loc.t * string option

What is currently being parsed. The second argument is the atom at the beginnig of the list when inside a sum ... or field ....

val kind : (kind, _) parser
val repeat : 'a t -> 'a list t

repeat t use t to consume all remaning elements of the input until the end of sequence is reached.

val capture : ('a t -> 'a) t

Capture the rest of the input for later parsing

val enter : 'a t -> 'a t

enter t expect the next element of the input to be a list and parse its contents with t.

val fields : 'a fields_parser -> 'a t

fields fp converts the rest of the current input to a list of fields and parse them with fp. This operation fails if one the S-expression in the input is not of the form (<atom> <values>...)

val record : 'a fields_parser -> 'a t

record fp = enter (fields fp)

Consume the next element of the input as a string, int, char, ...

include Combinators with type 'a t := 'a t
val unit : unit t
val string : string t

Convert an Atom or a Quoted_string from/to a string.

val int : int t
val float : float t
val bool : bool t
val pair : 'a t -> 'b t -> ('a * 'b) t
val triple : 'a t -> 'b t -> 'c t -> ('a * 'b * 'c) t
val list : 'a t -> 'a list t
val array : 'a t -> 'a array t
val option : 'a t -> 'a option t
val string_set : String.Set.t t

atom_set is a conversion to/from a set of strings representing atoms.

val string_map : 'a t -> 'a String.Map.t t

atom_map conv: given a conversion conv to/from 'a, returns a conversion to/from a map where the keys are atoms and the values are of type 'a.

val string_hashtbl : 'a t -> (string, 'a) Hashtbl.t t

atom_hashtbl conv is similar to atom_map for hash tables.

val raw : ast t

Unparsed next element of the input

val peek : ast option t

Inspect the next element of the input without consuming it

val peek_exn : ast t

Same as peek but fail if the end of input is reached

val junk : unit t

Consume and ignore the next element of the input

val junk_everything : (unit, _) parser

Ignore all the rest of the input

val plain_string : (loc:Loc.t -> string -> 'a) -> 'a t

plain_string f expects the next element of the input to be a plain string, i.e. either an atom or a quoted string, but not a template nor a list.

val fix : ('a t -> 'a t) -> 'a t
val of_sexp_error : ?hint:hint -> Loc.t -> string -> _
val of_sexp_errorf : ?hint:hint -> Loc.t -> ('a, unit, string, 'b) format4 -> 'a
val no_templates : ?hint:hint -> Loc.t -> ('a, unit, string, 'b) format4 -> 'a
val located : 'a t -> (Loc.t * 'a) t
val enum : (string * 'a) list -> 'a t
val sum : (string * 'a t) list -> 'a t

Parser that parse a S-expression of the form (<atom> <s-exp1> <s-exp2> ...) or <atom>. <atom> is looked up in the list and the remaining s-expressions are parsed using the corresponding list parser.

val map_validate : 'a fields_parser -> f:('a -> ('b, string) Result.t) -> 'b fields_parser

Check the result of a list parser, and raise a properly located error in case of failure.

Parsing record fields

val field : string -> ?default:'a -> ?on_dup:(Univ_map.t -> string -> Ast.t list -> unit) -> 'a t -> 'a fields_parser
val field_o : string -> ?on_dup:(Univ_map.t -> string -> Ast.t list -> unit) -> 'a t -> 'a option fields_parser
val field_b : ?check:unit t -> ?on_dup:(Univ_map.t -> string -> Ast.t list -> unit) -> string -> bool fields_parser
val multi_field : string -> 'a t -> 'a list fields_parser

A field that can appear multiple times

val field_present_too_many_times : Univ_map.t -> string -> Ast.t list -> _

Default value for on_dup. It fails with an appropriate error message.
