Lip

Lip provides powerful parser combinators for creating reusable and flexible parsers.

Why Lip?

• Easy to understand - uses intuitive combinators like keep and skip
• Compact - takes less than an hour to learn this library fully
• Flexible and composable parser combinators
• Efficient - minimal backtracking
• Built-in support for precise, located error messages
• Keep track of extra states like line number and instruction index
• Extensible - create your own combinators if needed

rust // Parse an (x, y) position pair use lip::*; let position = succeed!(|x, y| (x, y)) .keep(int()) .skip(token(",")) .keep(int()) .run("2,3", ()); // run this parser on string "2,3" without extra states // when parsing finished, position == (2, 3)
