At present, we have several methods to build grammars: from an EBNF grammar, from a json schema, or from a regex e.t.c. This PR offers more functions to build grammar. Typically, here are:
empty()
, return an empty grammar.string(str)
, return a grammar which match the specific string.character_class(bool, List[char])
, return a grammar which matches(or rejects) a chracterclass.star(grammar)
, return a grammar matches grammar*.plus(grammar)
, return a grammar matches grammar+.optional(grammar)
, return a grammar matches grammar?.For example, if we want to create a grammar to match a signed integer, we can use:
Then, we can use
grammar
to match integers.Signed-off-by: Yuchuan [email protected]
