Crate nom [−] [src]

nom, eating data byte by byte

nom is a parser combinator library with a focus on safe parsing, streaming patterns, and as much as possible zero copy.

The code is available on Github

There are a few guides with more details about the design of nom, how to write parsers, or the error management system.

If you are upgrading to nom 2.0, please read the migration document.

See also the FAQ.

What are parser combinators?

Parser combinators are a way to build parsers out of small functions. instead of writing a huge grammar file then generaing code, like you would do with lex and yacc, you write small functions, to parse small things like a character, or a number, and then you assemble them in larger and larger functions, that can parse larger parts of your formats.

You end up with a list of small functions that you can reuse everywhere you need. Each of them can be unit tested anf fuzzed separately.

nom parser design

All nom parsers follow the same convention. They are all functions with the following signature:

ⓘThis example is not tested
 fn parser(input: I) -> IResult<I,O> { ... }

Here is the definition of that IResult type:

pub type IResult<I,O,E=u32> = Result<(I,O), Err<I,E>>;

pub enum Err<I,E=u32> {
  Incomplete(Needed),
  Error(Context<I,E>),
  Failure(Context<I,E>),
}

What it means:

That way, you could write your own parser that recognizes the letter 'a' like this:

#[macro_use] extern crate nom;
use nom::{IResult,Needed,Err,ErrorKind};

fn a(input: &[u8]) -> IResult<&[u8], char> {
 // if there is not enough data, we return Ìncomplete
 if input.len() == 0 {
   Err(Err::Incomplete(Needed::Size(1)))
 } else {
   if input[0] == 'a' as u8 {
     // the first part of the returned value is the remaining slice
     Ok((&input[1..], 'a'))
   } else {
     Err(Err::Error(error_position!(input, ErrorKind::Custom(42))))
   }
 }
}

Writing all the parsers manually, like this, is dangerous, despite Rust's safety features. There are still a lot of mistakes one can make. That's why nom provides a list of macros to help in developing parsers. As an example, here is a parser that would recognize the phrase "Hello " and return the name of the person we hail:

#[macro_use] extern crate nom;
use nom::alpha;

named!(hello, preceded!(tag!("Hello "), alpha));

Let's deconstruct it:

#[macro_use] extern crate nom;
use nom::{alpha,IResult};

fn hello(input: &[u8]) -> IResult<&[u8], &[u8]> {
  preceded!(input,
    tag!("Hello "), alpha)
}

By default, named makes a function that takes &[u8] as input type, and returns &[u8] as output type. You can override it like this:

Note : when we don't use named!, we must pass the input as first argument of the top level combinator (see the line preceded!(input, in the preceding code example). This is a macro trick in nom to pass input from one combinator to the next by rewriting the call.

Next part of the parser: preceded!(tag!("Hello "), alpha)). Here, tag! is a combinator that recognizes a specific serie of bytes or characters. alpha is a function that recognizes alphabetical characters. The preceded! combinator assembles them in a more complex parser: if both parsers are successful, it returns the result of the second one (alpha is preceded by tag!).

Note : combinators can assemble other combinators (macros), or parser functions, as long as they follow the same interface. Here, alpha is a parser function already implemented in nom.

List of parsers and combinators

Basic elements

Those are used to recognize the lowest level elements of your grammar, like, "here is a dot", or "here is an big endian integer".

Parsing integers from binary formats can be done in two ways: with parser functions, or combinators with configurable endianness:

Modifiers

Error management and debugging

Choice combinators

Sequence combinators

Applying a parser multiple times

Text parsing

Binary format parsing

Bit stream parsing

Whitespace delimited formats parsing

Remaining combinators

Character test functions

use those functions with a combinator like take_while!:

Remaining functions (sort those out in the other categories)

Example

ⓘThis example is not tested
#[macro_use]

// We transform an integer string into a i64, ignoring surrounding whitespaces
// We look for a digit suite, and try to convert it.
// If either str::from_utf8 or FromStr::from_str fail,
// we fallback to the parens parser defined above
