bml

BML Markup Language

[BML] is a simplified [XML] used by the [SNES Preservation Project], see the BML [grammar] using [PEG] as input for the [pest] parser.

In contrast to its C++ [reference] implementation, this Rust implementation parses indents by pushing them on a stack to compare them instead of counting characters (stack-based-indent) and it allows tabulators between attributes (tabular-attributes) and between colons and multi-line data (tabular-colon-data) supporting tabulator-based along with space-based alignments.

Syntax highlighting is trivial, see [vim-bml].

Usage

This crate works on Rust stable channel by adding it to Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] bml = "0.3"

Examples

```rust use bml::BmlNode; use std::convert::TryFrom;

let root = BmlNode::try_from(concat!( "server\n", " path: /core/www/\n", " host: example.com\n", " port: 80\n", " service: true\n", " proxy\n", " host: proxy.example.com\n", " port: 8080\n", " authentication: plain\n", " description\n", " :Primary web-facing server\n", " :Provides commerce-related functionality\n", "\n", "server\n", " // ...\n", " proxy host=\"proxy.example.com\" port=\"8080\"\n", " authentication: plain\n", )).unwrap();

let (name, node) = root.nodes().next().unwrap();

asserteq!(name, "server"); asserteq!(node.named("port").next().unwrap().value(), "80"); ```
