ebnf
This crate is forked from ebnf to support kbnf syntax. This is currently intended as an internal crate for crate kbnf
.
lib.rs
:
ebnf - A successor bnf parsing library of bnf parsing library, for parsing Extended Backus–Naur form context-free grammars
The code is available on GitHub
Disclaimer:
There are various variants of EBNF, which uses somewhat different syntactic conventions. This library takes EBNF Evaluator's example code as standard, which has almost most syntactic conventions on Wikipedia's page.
What does a valid EBNF grammar looks like?
The following example is taken from EBNF Evaluator:
filter ::= ( first ' ' )? ( number '~ ' )? ( number '-' number ) ( ' ' number '~' )? ( ' hz' )? ( ' b' )? ( ' i' )? ( ' a' )?;
first ::= #'[a-za-z][a-za-z0-9_+]*';
number ::= digits ( ( '.' | ',' ) digits? )?;
digits ::= #'[0-9]+';
How to use this library?
extern crate kbnf_syntax;
fn main() {
let source = r"
filter ::= ( first ' ' )? ( number '~ ' )? ( number '-' number ) ( ' ' number '~' )? ( ' hz' )? ( ' b' )? ( ' i' )? ( ' a' )?;
first ::= #'[a-za-z][a-za-z0-9_+]*';
number ::= digits ( ( '.' | ',' ) digits? )?;
digits ::= #'[0-9]+';
";
let result = kbnf_syntax::get_grammar(source);
}
