Primitives for reading the SMILES language in Rust. For details, see: Let's Build a SMILES Parser in Rust.
Add this to your Cargo.toml
:
toml
[dependencies]
purr = "0.6"
Parse ethanol:
```rust use purr::read::{ read, Error }; use purr::valence::implicit_hydrogens; use purr::mol::{ Mol, Atom, Bond, Element };
fn main() -> Result<(), Error> { let atoms = read(&"OC[CH3]")?; assert_eq!(atoms, vec![ Atom { nub: Nub { element: Element::O, ..Default::default() }, bonds: vec![ Bond { tid: 1, style: None } ] }, Atom { nub: Default::default(), bonds: vec![ Bond { tid: 0, style: None }, Bond { tid: 2, style: None } ] }, Atom { nub: Nub { hcount: Some(3), charge: Some(0), ..Default::default() }, bonds: vec![ Bond { tid: 1, style: None } ] } ]);
assert_eq!(implicit_hydrogens(&atoms[0]), Ok(Some(1)));
assert_eq!(implicit_hydrogens(&atoms[1]), Ok(Some(2)));
assert_eq!(implicit_hydrogens(&atoms[2]), Ok(None));
Ok(())
} ```
Errors are reported with the character index.
```rust use purr::read::{ read, Error };
fn main() { let mol = read(&"OCCXC");
assert_eq!(mol.err(), Some(Error::InvalidCharacter(3)));
} ```
Purr is not yet stable. Patch versions never introduce breaking changes, but minor/major versions probably will.
