neure

A fast little combinational parsing library

Why neure

• Better performance

• Fewer dependencies

• Faster compilation

Example

For more, reference examples

Example 1

use neure::prelude::*;

pub fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let year = re!(['0' - '9']+); // match digit from 0 to 9 more than once
    let year = year.map(map::from_str::<i32>()); // map it to i32
    let name = neu::ascii_alphabetic().repeat_one_more(); // match ascii alphabetic
    let mut ctx = CharsCtx::new("2024rust");

    // .then construct a tuple
    assert_eq!(ctx.ctor(&year.then(name))?, (2024, "rust"));
    Ok(())
}
