📑 Ikigai

Ikigai is a fast and simple text parser - based off of JagTags's tag structure.

• UTF-16 Character Encoding Support
• O(n) Time Complexity Lexer
• Uses 0 Regex

Strongly based off of Skya Bot's implementation. See Acknowledgements for more information.

Built With

• TypeScript

Installation

Might upload to NPM sometime later. Clone this repo and compile it yourself for now :D

Usage

import { parse } from '...';

const nodes = parse('Hello {user.name} {choose:😀|👋|🎉}!');

console.dir(nodes, { depth: null });

// Parser AST Output
// 0: Literal | 1: Variable | 2: Function | 3: Argument
[
	{ type: 0, value: 'Hello ' },
	{ type: 1, name: 'user.name' },
	{ type: 0, value: ' ' },
	{
		type: 2,
		name: 'choose',
		args: [
			{ type: 3, stems: [{ type: 0, value: '😀' }] },
			{ type: 3, stems: [{ type: 0, value: '👋' }] },
			{ type: 3, stems: [{ type: 0, value: '🎉' }] },
		],
	},
	{ type: 0, value: '!' },
];

ASTNode Interpretation is up to you to implement. Here's an example of what you could do:

import { ASTNode, ASTNodeType } from '...';

export function interpret(node: ASTNode | ASTNode[]): string {
	if (Array.isArray(node)) {
		let output = '';

		for (const stem of node) {
			output += interpret(stem);
		}

		return output;
	}

	switch (node.type) {
		case ASTNodeType.Literal:
			// 🍣
			break;
		case ASTNodeType.Argument:
			// 🍚
			break;
		case ASTNodeType.Function:
			// 🍡
			break;
		case ASTNodeType.Variable:
			// 🍙
			break;
	}
}
