tokay

with structured file formats, and they feel a little bit contrived. I'm not complaining here: this project is not making any false claims about its status, the docs are clearly and explicitly unfinished, it is very clear that Tokay is still under active development. But I want to learn more about it! I came away from this with a sense that it has the potential to be really useful to me, but without any concrete evidence to support that. I guess the next step is to download the source and start reading through the tests. All this to say: please highlight some examples showcasing situations where Tokay shines! (Parsing CSVs containing quoted strings was making the rounds recently, right? What does that look like in Tokay?) Oh, actually, the GitHub readme has an example that is more involved than any in the documentation: https://github.com/tokay-lang/tokay _ : [ \t]+ # redefine whitespace to just tab and space Factor : @{ Integer _ # built-in 64-bit signed integer token '(' _ Expr ')' _ } Term : @{ Term '*' _ Factor $1 * $4 Term '/' _ Factor $1 / $4 Factor } Expr : @{ Expr '+' _ Term $1 + $4 Expr '-' _ Term $1 - $4 Term } Expr _ print("= " + $1) # gives some neat result output
