Red Green Syntax Trees - an Overview | by Will Speak (aka Plingdollar):

https://willspeak.me/2021/11/24/red-green-syntax-trees-an-overview.html

To the #Rust #rustlang community: I once started to write a #compiler / #parser with #nom #crate. However I had some struggles with it of how to provide **multiple** errors with line+column indicators for a parsed context.
Now I read a tiny bit about #syn and #chumsky
Are they the right crates for me? Are there others?
I do not parse rust-code, but a completely custom language (similar to pugjs)

I just released pyparsing 3.2.1 with a very cool addition to the railroad diagrams that pyparsing generates for its parsers - non-terminal diagram elements now link to their definitions elsewhere in the diagram! This is pretty handy when the diagram is for a complex parser, as in this demo of a parser/evaluator for time references like "3 weeks from today" or "0800 two days from now" or "in exactly twenty-four hours". #pyparsing #python #parser #railroaddiagram

Currently dallying with a simple embedded, statically typed scripting language. The magic is an extensible lexer and parser, with the hosting application able to do something like

VM_addCommand(vm, KEYWORD(“open”), KEYWORD(“file”), TYPE(STRING), KEYWORD(“as”), REFERENCE, END);

to allow something like

open file “foo.txt” as myFile

It’s obviously been done before, but it’s fun to play with. I haven’t done enough #compiler or #parser work lately.

More of Infocom's Trinity. "What good is a rodent in this world? The answer is pure adventure game logic: it is only good for solving problems."

OK enough dragging my feet. I've made a little library for defining grammars in a way that theoretically:

- Has fast and robust enough error recovery to power, say, an LSP server
- Lets you define syntax highlighting inline with the grammar definition, so you don't need to write your grammar twice
- Can automatically derive a Wadler-style pretty printer from the grammar, so you DON'T NEED TO WRITE YOUR GRAMMAR TWICE

today, on let's make IF...

https://topexpert.blog/2024/10/28/lets-make-if-15-disabling-unwanted-commands/

The to-do list for this project is getting shorter:

- handling responses for parser errors
- handling responses for standard rules verbs
- limiting the parser to keep focus on the main four commands

I may write something about playtesting next week, since I've gotten lots of questions about it (both for testers and authors).

This week, on let's make IF...

Busy busy! Adding abbreviations for common commands, introducing a bit of randomness, and ending a game.

Firing up #Inform7 on my #Mac to write another #interactiveFiction #game. Getting stuck into the prologue. This will be a much bigger game than I've written before, including 7 main sections in the #code. It is going to take some time. So best get on with it sooner rather than later! Excited to be back #coding. There's something magical about using this #declarative / #naturalLanguage / #objectOriented #programming language and IDE. #GameDev #IndieGame #TextGames #Parser #TextAdventure #Inform
