Parsel is a parser combinator library that makes it easy to write parsers. Parser combinators lets you create simple parses that can be combined together to very complex ones. Take for example a parser that parses a digit from a given String: _(You can use the pre-defined lexical parser for digit: `L.digit`)_

```Swift
let digit = Parser<String, Int> { input in
    guard let first = input.first, let number = Int(String(first)) else {
        return .fail(/* some pre-defined error */)
    }
    return .success(result: number, rest: String(input.dropFirst()))
}
```

We can now simply extend this to create a parser that parses an addition of two digits from a string:

```Swift
let addition = (digit ~ L.plus ~ digit).map { a, _, b in a + b } // `L.plus` is a predefined parser that parses the `+` sign

let result = addition.parse("2+4")
try! result.unwrap() // Int: 6
```

# Why should I use this?

Parsing is a very common task, it does not always mean to parse source code or JSON strings. Parsing means to transform an unstructured input to a structured output. In case of source code this means to parse a raw string to an AST (abstract syntax tree), in case of an addition it means to parse the result of adding two numbers out of a string.
Parsing can always fail, if the input does not match the needed grammer. If the input string in the above example would have been `1+`, it would have been failed because the second number is missing.
The advantage of parser combinators is that you start with a very basic parser. In the above example `digit` parses only one digit. But it is not hard, to add a parser that parses more than one digit. A number is a repetition of mulitple digits. For repetition, we can use `rep`, which tries to apply the parser until it fails and collects the result as an array.
Parsing an integer addition is as easy as

```Swift
func intFromDigits(_ digits: [Int]) -> Int {
    return digits.reduce(0) { res, e in    
        return res * 10 + e
    }
}

let number = digit.rep.map(intFromDigits)
let addition = number ~ L.plus ~ number ^^ { a, _, b in // ^^ is convenience for map
    return a + b
}

let result = addition.parse("123+456")
try! result.unwrap() // Int: 579
```

_(There is also a pre-defined lexical parser for numbers `L.number` that is able to parse a number in different formats [binary, octal, hexadecimal, decimal])_

# What are the disadvantages?

Since parser combinators are very high level, they abstract the whole process of parsing a lot. That means it is easier to use but it also means that the performance is not as good as an optimized, handwritten parser.

# Installation

Parsel is currently available via Swift Package Manager and Cocoapods. Support for Carthage will come later.

## Swift Package Manager

To use Parsel in your project, just add it as a dependency in your `Package.swift` file and run `swift package update`.

```Swift
import PackageDescription

let package = Package(
  name: "MyAwesomeApp",
  dependencies: [
    .package(url: "https://github.com/BenchR267/Parsel", from: "3.0.2")
  ]
)
```

## Cocoapods

To use Parsel with Cocoapods, just add this entry to your Podfile and run `pod install`:

```Ruby
target 'MyAwesomeApp' do
  use_frameworks!

pod 'Parsel'
end
```

# Requirements

* Swift 4.0
    * Parsel is written in Swift 4.0 development snapshots and will be available when Swift 4.0 is released

# Example

[Calculator](https://github.com/BenchR267/Calculator) is a small example I wrote with Parsel.

# Contributing

To start contributing to Parsel please clone the project and configure it initially:

```Bash
$ git clone git@github.com:BenchR267/Parsel.git
$ cd Parsel
$ make initial
```

Please make sure that all tests are green before you submit a pull request by running `make test`.

If you experience a bug or have an idea for a feature request but you don't know where to get started: feel free to open an [issue](https://github.com/BenchR267/Parsel/issues/new) with a self-explaining description text.

If you have an idea for a better (more readable and/or faster) implementation for an existing function: feel free to change the code and submit a pull request.
I will be more than happy to review the changes to make Parsel the best project it can be!
