The Parsing Expression Grammar Template Library (PEGTL) is a zero-dependency C++ header-only parser combinator library for creating parsers according to a [Parsing Expression Grammar](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsing_expression_grammar) (PEG).

## Introduction
|
|
|
|
Grammars are written as regular C++ code, created with template programming (not template meta programming), i.e. nested template instantiations that naturally correspond to the inductive definition of PEGs (and other parser-combinator approaches).
|
|
|
|
A comprehensive set of [parser rules](doc/Rule-Reference.md) that can be combined and extended by the user is included, as are mechanisms for debugging grammars, and for attaching user-defined [actions](doc/Actions-and-States.md) to grammar rules.
|
|
Here is an example of how a PEG grammar rule is implemented as C++ class with the PEGTL.
|
|
|
|
```c++
|
|
// PEG rule for integers consisting of a non-empty
|
|
// sequence of digits with an optional sign:
|
|
|
|
// sign ::= '+' / '-'
|
|
// integer ::= sign? digit+
|
|
|
|
// The same parsing rule implemented with the PEGTL:
|
|
|
|
using namespace tao::pegtl;
|
|
|
|
struct sign : one< '+', '-' > {};
|
|
struct integer : seq< opt< sign >, plus< digit > > {};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
PEGs are superficially similar to Context-Free Grammars (CFGs), however the more deterministic nature of PEGs gives rise to some very important differences.
|
|
The included [grammar analysis](doc/Grammar-Analysis.md) finds several typical errors in PEGs, including left recursion.
|
|
|
|
## Design
|
|
|
|
The PEGTL is designed to be "lean and mean", the core library consists of approximately 6000 lines of code.
|
|
Emphasis is on simplicity and efficiency, preferring a well-tuned simple approach over complicated optimisations.
|
|
|
|
The PEGTL is mostly concerned with parsing combinators and grammar rules, and with giving the user of the library (the possibility of) full control over all other aspects of a parsing run.
|
|
Whether/which actions are taken, and whether/which data structures are created during a parsing run, is entirely up to the user.
|
|
|
|
Included are some [examples](doc/Contrib-and-Examples.md#examples) for typical situation like unescaping escape sequences in strings, building a generic [JSON](http://www.json.org/) data structure, and on-the-fly evaluation of arithmetic expressions.
|
|
|
|
Through the use of template programming and template specialisations it is possible to write a grammar once, and use it in multiple ways with different (semantic) actions in different (or the same) parsing runs.
|
|
|
|
With the PEG formalism, the separation into lexer and parser stages is usually dropped -- everything is done in a single grammar.
|
|
The rules are expressed in C++ as template instantiations, and it is the compiler's task to optimise PEGTL grammars.
|
|
|
|
## Status
|
|
|
|
Each commit is automatically tested with multiple architectures, operating systems, compilers, and versions thereof.
|
|
|
|
Each commit is checked with GCC's and Clang's [sanitizers](https://github.com/google/sanitizers), Clang's [Static Analyzer](https://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/), and [`clang-tidy`](http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/).
|
|
Additionally, we use [CodeQL](https://securitylab.github.com/tools/codeql) to scan for (security) issues.
|
|
|
|
Code coverage is automatically measured and the unit tests cover 100% of the core library code (for releases).
|
|
|
|
[Releases](https://github.com/taocpp/PEGTL/releases) are done in accordance with [Semantic Versioning](http://semver.org/).
|
|
Incompatible API changes are *only* allowed to occur between major versions.
|
