Gruffalo
Based on the RNGLR algorithm described in the paper Right Nulled GLR Parsers (Elizabeth Scott & Adrian Johnstone, ACM, 2006).
RNGLR parsers accept any context-free grammar, while still being (nearly?) as fast as LR parsers (e.g. yacc).
Maitreya
Maitreya is a generalized LR parser generator written in javascript.
Features
- Accept GLR grammars, not limited to LR(k) grammars.
- Support incremental (not yet) / streaming parsing.
- Can do both scanner less parsing and token based parsing.
- Can build grammar on the fly by using parser combinators.
- Support both interpretation and code genearation.
Example
import {defineGrammar, def, ref, many1, regex, choice} from 'maitreya/grammar';
import {GLRParser} from 'maitreya/interpret';
let grammar = defineGrammar(() => {
def('exp', [ref('num')], ([num]) => num);
def('exp', [ref('exp'), ref('op'), ref('exp')], ([lhs, op, rhs]) => op(lhs, rhs));
def('num', [many1(regex(/^[0-9]/))], ([digits]) => Number(digits.join('')));
def('op', [choice('+', '-')], ([op]) => {
return {
['+'](lhs, rhs) { return lhs + rhs; },
['-'](lhs, rhs) { return lhs - rhs; }
}[op];
});
});
let parser = new GLRParser(grammar);
parser.feed('3+2-5');
console.log(parser.results);
