# vartan
vartan provides a compiler that generates a LALR(1) or SLR(1) parsing table and a driver for golang.
[](https://github.com/nihei9/vartan/actions/workflows/test.yml)
## Status
🚧 Now Developing
## Installation
```sh
$ go install github.com/nihei9/vartan/cmd/vartan@latest
```
## Usage
vartan uses BNF-like DSL to define your grammar. As an example, let's write a grammar that represents a simple expression.
```
expr
: expr add_op term
| term
;
term
: term mul_op factor
| factor
;
factor
: number
| id
;
whitespaces: "[\u{0009}\u{0020}]+" #skip;
number: "[0-9]+";
id: "[A-Za-z_]+";
add_op: '+';
mul_op: '*';
```
Save the above grammar to a file in UTF-8. In this explanation, the file name is `expr.vr`.
Next, generate a parsing table using `vartan compile` command.
```sh
$ vartan compile -g expr.vr -o expr.json
```
If you want to make sure that the grammar behaves as expected, you can use `vartan parse` command to try parse without implementing a driver.
⚠️ An encoding that `vartan parse` command and the driver can handle is only UTF-8.
```sh
$ echo -n 'foo + bar * baz * 100' | vartan parse expr.json
expr
├─ expr
│ └─ term
│ └─ factor
│ └─ id "foo"
├─ add_op "+"
└─ term
├─ term
│ ├─ term
│ │ └─ factor
│ │ └─ id "bar"
│ ├─ mul_op "*"
│ └─ factor
│ └─ id "baz"
├─ mul_op "*"
└─ factor
└─ number "100"
```
When `vartan parse` command successfully parses the input data, it prints a CST or an AST (if any).
## Debug
`vartan compile` command also generates a description file having `-description.json` suffix along with a parsing table. This file describes each state in the parsing table in detail. If your grammar contains conflicts, see `Conflicts` and `States` sections of this file. Using `vartan show` command, you can see the description file in a readable format.
```sh
$ vartan show expr-description.json
# Class
LALR(1)
# Conflicts
No conflict was detected.
# Terminals
1 - - <eof>
2 - - error
3 - - whitespaces
4 - - number
5 - - id
6 - - add_op (+)
7 - - mul_op (*)
# Productions
1 - - expr' → expr
2 - - expr → expr + term
3 - - expr → term
4 - - term → term * factor
5 - - term → factor
6 - - factor → number
7 - - factor → id
# States
## State 0
1 expr' → ・ expr
shift 4 on number
shift 5 on id
goto 1 on expr
goto 2 on term
goto 3 on factor
...
```
