--- Lexical scanner for creating a sequence of tokens from text.
--
lexer.scan(s)
returns an iterator over all tokens found in the
-- string s
. This iterator returns two values, a token type string
-- (such as 'string' for quoted string, 'iden' for identifier) and the value of the
-- token.
--
-- Versions specialized for Lua and C are available; these also handle block comments -- and classify keywords as 'keyword' tokens. For example: --
-- > s = 'for i=1,n do' -- > for t,v in lexer.lua(s) do print(t,v) end -- keyword for -- iden i -- = = -- number 1 -- , , -- iden n -- keyword do ---- -- Based on pl.lexer from Penlight local strfind = string.find local strsub = string.sub local append = table.insert local function assert_arg(idx,val,tp) if type(val) ~= tp then error("argument "..idx.." must be "..tp, 2) end end local lexer = {} local NUMBER1 = '^[%+%-]?%d+%.?%d*[eE][%+%-]?%d+' local NUMBER2 = '^[%+%-]?%d+%.?%d*' local NUMBER3 = '^0x[%da-fA-F]+' local NUMBER4 = '^%d+%.?%d*[eE][%+%-]?%d+' local NUMBER5 = '^%d+%.?%d*' local IDEN = '^[%a_][%w_]*' local WSPACE = '^%s+' local STRING1 = [[^'.-[^\\]']] local STRING2 = [[^".-[^\\]"]] local STRING3 = "^((['\"])%2)" -- empty string local PREPRO = '^#.-[^\\]\n' local plain_matches,lua_matches,cpp_matches,lua_keyword,cpp_keyword local function tdump(tok) return tok,tok end local function ndump(tok,options) if options and options.number then tok = tonumber(tok) end return "number",tok end -- regular strings, single or double quotes; usually we want them -- without the quotes local function sdump(tok,options) if options and options.string then tok = tok:sub(2,-2) end return "string",tok end -- strings enclosed in back ticks local function bdump(tok,options) if options and options.string then tok = tok:sub(2,-2) end return "backtick",tok end -- long Lua strings need extra work to get rid of the quotes local function sdump_l(tok,options) if options and options.string then tok = tok:sub(3,-3) end return "string",tok end local function chdump(tok,options) if options and options.string then tok = tok:sub(2,-2) end return "char",tok end local function cdump(tok) return 'comment',tok end local function wsdump (tok) return "space",tok end local function pdump (tok) return 'prepro',tok end local function plain_vdump(tok) return "iden",tok end local function lua_vdump(tok) if lua_keyword[tok] then return "keyword",tok else return "iden",tok end end local function cpp_vdump(tok) if cpp_keyword[tok] then return "keyword",tok else return "iden",tok end end local function count_lines(line, text) local index, limit = 1, #text while index <= limit do local start, stop = text:find('\r\n', index, true) if not start then start, stop = text:find('[\r\n\f]', index) if not start then break end end index = stop + 1 line = line + 1 end return line end local multiline = { comment = true, space = true } --- create a plain token iterator from a string or file-like object. -- @param s the string -- @param matches an optional match table (set of pattern-action pairs) -- @param filter a table of token types to exclude, by default {space=true} -- @param options a table of options; by default, {number=true,string=true}, -- which means convert numbers and strip string quotes. function lexer.scan (s,matches,filter,options) --assert_arg(1,s,'string') local file = type(s) ~= 'string' and s filter = filter or {space=true} options = options or {number=true,string=true} if filter then if filter.space then filter[wsdump] = true end if filter.comments then filter[cdump] = true end end if not matches then if not plain_matches then plain_matches = { {WSPACE,wsdump}, {NUMBER3,ndump}, {IDEN,plain_vdump}, {NUMBER1,ndump}, {NUMBER2,ndump}, {STRING3,sdump}, {STRING1,sdump}, {STRING2,sdump}, {'^.',tdump} } end matches = plain_matches end local i1,i2,idx,res1,res2,tok,pat,fun,capt local line = 1 if file then s = file:read() if not s then return nil end -- empty file if s:match '^\239\187' then -- UTF-8 BOM Abomination s = s:sub(4) end s = s ..'\n' end local sz = #s local idx = 1 if sz == 0 then return nil end -- empty file local res = {} local mt = {} mt.__index = mt setmetatable(res,mt) function mt.lineno() return line end function mt.getline() if idx < sz then tok = strsub(s,idx,-2) idx = sz + 1 line = line + 1 return tok else idx = sz + 1 line = line + 1 return file:read() end end function mt.next (tok) local t,v = tok() while t == 'space' do t,v = tok() end return t,v end function mt.__call () if not s then return end while true do for _,m in ipairs(matches) do pat,fun = m[1],m[2] if fun == nil then error("no match for "..pat) end i1,i2 = strfind(s,pat,idx) if i1 then tok = strsub(s,i1,i2) idx = i2 + 1 if not (filter and filter[fun]) then lexer.finished = idx > sz local t,v = fun(tok,options) if not file and multiline[t] then line = count_lines(line,v) end return t,v end end end if idx > sz then if file then line = line + 1 s = file:read() if not s then return end s = s ..
