DebugCombinators

parsley.debug.DebugCombinators
implicit class DebugCombinators[P, A](p: P)(implicit con: P => Parsley[A])

This class enables the debug combinator on parsers.

This extension class operates on values that are convertible to parsers. It enables the use of the debug combinator, which can be used to trace the execution through a parser.

Type parameters

P

the type of base value that this class is used on (the conversion to Parsley) is summoned automatically.

Value parameters

con

a conversion that allows values convertible to parsers to be used.

p

the value that this class is enabling methods on.

Attributes

Constructor

This constructor should not be called manually, it is designed to be used via Scala's implicit resolution.

def debug(name: String, break: Breakpoint, colored: Boolean, watchedRefs: (Ref[_], String)*): Parsley[A]

This combinator allows this parser to be debugged by providing a trace through the execution.

This combinator allows this parser to be debugged by providing a trace through the execution.

When this combinator is entered, it will print the name assigned to the parser, as well as the current input context for a few characters on either side. This parser is then executed. If it succeeded, this combinator again reports the name along with "Good" and the input context. If it failed, it reports the name along with "Bad" and the input context.

When breakpoints are used, the execution of the combinator will pause on either entry, exit, or both. The parse is resumed by entering a newline on standard input. Breakpoints will cause additional information about the internal state of the parser to be reported.

Value parameters

break

The breakpoint properties of this parser, defaults to NoBreak

colored

Whether to render with (default true: render colours)

name

The name to be assigned to this parser

watchedRefs

Which references to also track the values of and their names, if any

Display information about the error messages generated by this parser.

Display information about the error messages generated by this parser.

This is an experimental debugger that provides internal information about error messages. This provides more detail than one might normally see inside a regular error message, but may help isolate the root cause of an error message not being as expected: this can form the bulk of a specific question on the discussion board.

Value parameters

colored

Whether the output should be colourful

errBuilder

The error builder used for formatting messages in the "real parser", which is used to help format information in the debugger.

name
