object infix
This module contains the very useful chaining family of combinators, which are mostly used to parse operators and expressions of varying fixities. It is a more low-level API compared with precedence.
Compared with the combinators in chain, these allow for more freedom in the type of the values and the operators.

This combinator handles left-associative parsing, and application of, zero or more binary operators between zero or more values.

First parse
p

followed by ap
repeatedly. The results of thep
s,x1
throughxn
, are combined with the results of theop
s,f1
throughfn-1
, with left-associative application:fn-1(fn-2(..f1(x1, x2).., xn-1), xn)
. This application is then returned as the result of the combinator. Ifp
orop
fails having consumed input at any point, the whole combinator fails. If nop
could be parsed, this combinator will return a default resultx
.Compared with

may only be applied on the left-hand side of the operators.- A
the type of the values.
- B
the type returned by the operator, which must be a subtype of the result type
C
.- C
the result type of the chain, which also fits into the recursive application site of the operators.
- p
the value to be parsed.
- op
the operator between each value.
- x
the default value to return if no
p
s can be parsed.- wrap
a function that can convert the value type into the result type, this is provided automatically when
A <:< C
.- returns
a parser that parses alternating
p
andop
, ending in ap
and applies their results left-associatively or returnsx
if nop
was parsed.

Package structure
The parsley package contains the
Parsley
class, as well as theResult
,Success
, andFailure
types. In addition to these, it also contains the following packages and "modules" (a module is defined as being an object which mocks a package):parsley.Parsley
contains the bulk of the core "function-style" combinators.parsley.combinator
contains many helpful combinators that simplify some common parser patterns.parsley.character
contains the combinators needed to read characters and strings, as well as combinators to match specific sub-sets of characters.parsley.debug
contains debugging combinators, helpful for identifying faults in parsers.parsley.extension
contains syntactic sugar combinators exposed as implicit classes.parsley.io
contains extension methods to run parsers with input sourced from IO sources.parsley.expr
contains the following sub modules:parsley.expr.chain
contains combinators used in expression parsingparsley.expr.precedence
is a builder for expression parsers built on a precedence table.parsley.expr.infix
contains combinators used in expression parsing, but with more permissive types than their equivalents inchain
.parsley.expr.mixed
contains combinators that can be used for expression parsing, but where different fixities may be mixed on the same level: this is rare in practice.parsley.implicits
contains several implicits to add syntactic sugar to the combinators. These are sub-categorised into the following sub modules:parsley.implicits.character
contains implicits to allow you to use character and string literals as parsers.parsley.implicits.combinator
contains implicits related to combinators, such as the ability to make any parser into aParsley[Unit]
automatically.parsley.implicits.lift
enables postfix application of the lift combinator onto a function (or value).parsley.implicits.zipped
enables boths a reversed form of lift where the function appears on the right and is applied on a tuple (useful when type inference has failed) as well as a.zipped
method for building tuples out of several combinators.parsley.errors
contains modules to deal with error messages, their refinement and generation.parsley.errors.combinator
provides combinators that can be used to either produce more detailed errors as well as refine existing errors.parsley.errors.tokenextractors
provides mixins for common token extraction strategies during error message generation: these can be used to avoid implementingunexpectedToken
in theErrorBuilder
.parsley.lift
contains functions which lift functions that work on regular types to those which now combine the results of parsers returning those same types. these are ubiquitous.parsley.ap
contains functions which allow for the application of a parser returning a function to several parsers returning each of the argument types.parsley.registers
contains combinators that interact with the context-sensitive functionality in the form of registers.parsley.token
contains theLexer
class that provides a host of helpful lexing combinators when provided with the description of a language.parsley.position
contains parsers for extracting position information.parsley.genericbridges
contains some basic implementations of the Parser Bridge pattern (see Design Patterns for Parser Combinators in Scala, or the parsley wiki): these can be used before more specialised generic bridge traits can be constructed.
