RDF 1.1 Turtle parser for Rust.

Turtle is a textual syntax for RDF that allows an RDF graph to be completely written in a compact and natural text form, with abbreviations for common usage patterns and datatypes. This library provides a Turtle parser for Rust that keeps tracks of code mapping metadata for each syntax node using the locspan library.

Basic usage

Elements of the Turtle abstract syntax tree (implementing Parsable) are parsed using a Token iterator (a.k.a a lexer). A Lexer can be created from a char iterator. We can then use the Document::parse function to parse a Turtle document from the lexer. In the following example, we use the excellent codespan_reporting crate to report errors.

```rust use codespanreporting::diagnostic::{Diagnostic, Label}; use codespanreporting::files::SimpleFiles; use codespanreporting::term::termcolor::{ColorChoice, StandardStream}; use locspan::Meta; use std::fs::File; use std::io::Read; use turtlesyntax::{ parsing::Parse, Document, };

fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> { let mut args = std::env::args(); args.next();

let mut files = SimpleFiles::new();

for filename in args { let mut file = File::open(&filename)?; let mut buffer = String::new(); file.readtostring(&mut buffer)?; let fileid = files.add(filename.clone(), buffer); let buffer = files.get(fileid).unwrap();

match Document::parse_str(buffer.source().as_str(), |span| span) {
  Ok(_doc) => {
    // do something
  }
  Err(Meta(e, span)) => {
    let diagnostic = Diagnostic::error()
      .with_message(format!("parse error: {}", e))
      .with_labels(vec![Label::primary(file_id, span)]);

    let writer = StandardStream::stderr(ColorChoice::Auto);
    let config = codespan_reporting::term::Config::default();
    codespan_reporting::term::emit(&mut writer.lock(), &config, &files, &diagnostic)
      .unwrap();
  }
}

}

Ok(()) } ```

The above code will have the following kind of output when a syntax error is detected: text error: parse error: unexpected character ` ` ┌─ examples/syntax_error.ttl:5:34 │ 5 │ <http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-syntax- grammar> │ ^
