Struct pest::prec_climber::PrecClimber

pub struct PrecClimber<R: RuleType> { /* fields omitted */ }

List of operators and precedences, which can perform precedence climbing on infix expressions contained in a Pairs. The token pairs contained in the Pairs should start with a primary pair and then alternate between an operator and a primary.

Methods

impl<R: RuleType> PrecClimber<R>

pub fn new(ops: Vec<Operator<R>>) -> PrecClimber<R>

Creates a new PrecClimber from the Operators contained in ops. Every entry in the Vec has precedence index + 1. In order to have operators with same precedence, they need to be chained with | between them.

Examples

PrecClimber::new(vec![
    Operator::new(Rule::plus, Assoc::Left) | Operator::new(Rule::minus, Assoc::Left),
    Operator::new(Rule::times, Assoc::Left) | Operator::new(Rule::divide, Assoc::Left),
    Operator::new(Rule::power, Assoc::Right)
]);

pub fn climb<'i, P, F, G, T>(&self, pairs: P, primary: F, infix: G) -> T where
    P: Iterator<Item = Pair<'i, R>>,
    F: FnMut(Pair<'i, R>) -> T,
    G: FnMut(T, Pair<'i, R>, T) -> T, 

Performs the precedence climbing algorithm on the pairs in a similar manner to map-reduce. Primary pairs are mapped with primary and then reduced to one single result with infix.

Panics

Panics will occur when pairs is empty or when the alternating primary, operator, primary order is not respected.

Examples

let primary = |pair| {
    consume(pair, climber)
};
let infix = |lhs: i32, op: Pair<Rule>, rhs: i32| {
    match op.rule() {
        Rule::plus => lhs + rhs,
        Rule::minus => lhs - rhs,
        Rule::times => lhs * rhs,
        Rule::divide => lhs / rhs,
        Rule::power => lhs.pow(rhs as u32),
        _ => unreachable!()
    }
};

let result = climber.climb(pairs, primary, infix);
