Added

  • A new tutorial to help new users

  • select macro, a wrapper over filter_map that makes extracting data from specific tokens easy

  • choice parser, a better alternative to long or chains (which sometimes have poor compilation performance)

  • todo parser, that panics when used (but not when created) (akin to Rust's todo! macro, but for parsers)

  • keyword parser, that parses exact identifiers

  • from_str combinator to allow converting a pattern to a value inline, using std::str::FromStr

  • unwrapped combinator, to automatically unwrap an output value inline

  • rewind combinator, that allows reverting the input stream on success. It's most useful when requiring that a
    pattern is followed by some terminating pattern without the first parser greedily consuming it

  • map_err_with_span combinator, to allow fetching the span of the input that was parsed by a parser before an error
    was encountered

  • or_else combinator, to allow processing and potentially recovering from a parser error

  • SeparatedBy::at_most to require that a separated pattern appear at most a specific number of times

  • SeparatedBy::exactly to require that a separated pattern be repeated exactly a specific number of times

  • Repeated::exactly to require that a pattern be repeated exactly a specific number of times

  • More trait implementations for various things, making the crate more useful

Changed

  • Made just, one_of, and none_of significant more useful. They can now accept strings, arrays, slices, vectors,
    sets, or just single tokens as before
  • Added the return type of each parser to its documentation
  • More explicit documentation of parser behaviour
  • More doc examples
  • Deprecated seq (just has been generalised and can now be used to parse specific input sequences)
  • Sealed the Character trait so that future changes are not breaking
  • Sealed the Chain trait and made it more powerful
  • Moved trait constraints on Parser to where clauses for improved readability

Fixed

  • Fixed a subtle bug that allowed separated_by to parse an extra trailing separator when it shouldn't
  • Filled a 'hole' in the Error trait's API that conflated a lack of expected tokens with expectation of end of input
  • Made recursive parsers use weak reference-counting to avoid memory leaks
