ebnf

Disclaimer:

There are various variants of EBNF, which uses somewhat different syntactic conventions. This library takes EBNF Evaluator's example code as standard, which has almost most syntactic conventions on Wikipedia's page.

What does a valid EBNF grammar looks like?

The following example is taken from EBNF Evaluator:

ebnf filter ::= ( first ' ' )? ( number '~ ' )? ( number '-' number ) ( ' ' number '~' )? ( ' hz' )? ( ' b' )? ( ' i' )? ( ' a' )? first ::= #'[a-za-z][a-za-z0-9_+]*' number ::= digits ( ( '.' | ',' ) digits? )? digits ::= #'[0-9]+'

How to use this library?

```rust extern crate ebnf;

fn main() { let source = r" filter ::= ( first ' ' )? ( number '~ ' )? ( number '-' number ) ( ' ' number '~' )? ( ' hz' )? ( ' b' )? ( ' i' )? ( ' a' )? first ::= #'[a-za-z][a-za-z0-9_+]*' number ::= digits ( ( '.' | ',' ) digits? )? digits ::= #'[0-9]+' ";

let result = ebnf::get_grammar(source);

} ```
