blue_lang_syntax/lex.rs
1//! The blue lexer.
2//!
3//! Blue's surface is Ruby/Elixir-shaped, so the lexer's job is different
4//! from an s-expression reader's: it must distinguish `foo` the send from
5//! `foo(x)` the call, keep `:sym` distinct from `a ? b : c`, and record
6//! enough position to point a diagnostic at the byte the human typed.
7//!
8//! Two decisions here are load-bearing downstream and are made once:
9//!
10//! 1. **Every token carries a byte span.** `theory/BLUE.md` §0 requires
11//! total provenance — every node in an expanded program traceable to the
12//! source that caused it — and provenance cannot be recovered later if
13//! the lexer drops it.
14//! 2. **Trivia is a token, not a skip.** Comments and newlines are emitted
15//! rather than discarded, because a canonical formatter and an LSP both
16//! need a lossless stream. The measured failure this avoids is
17//! tatara-lisp's own reader, which discards trivia at tokenize time and
18//! thereby makes a comment-preserving formatter unbuildable on top of it.
19//! Callers that do not want trivia filter it; callers that need it
20//! cannot conjure it back.

24/// A half-open byte range into the source.
25///
26/// **tatara-lisp's `Span`, not a blue one.** blue used to declare its own
27/// `{ start, end }` pair here, which was a strict subset of the substrate's:
28/// tatara's carries the same two fields plus `synthetic()` / `is_synthetic()`,
29/// `merge`, `line_col` and a `Display`. Two structurally-identical span types
30/// in one pipeline is the duplication that forces a conversion at every
31/// boundary — and the boundary that mattered is the one where a *checker*
32/// diagnostic reaches the LSP, because a conversion that has to invent a value
33/// for "no span" is how a type error ends up reported at line 0.
34///
35/// Sharing the type also means the parser can emit `tatara_lisp::Spanned`
36/// directly: the tree blue parses into is the tree the evaluator eats, spans
37/// and all.

578// An identifier may be written in ANY script, not only Latin.
579//
580// The lexer works on bytes, and the rule that makes that safe is a property of
581// UTF-8 rather than a trick: every byte of a multi-byte character is >= 0x80,
582// and every character blue gives structural meaning — operators, delimiters,
583// quotes, `#` — is ASCII, hence < 0x80. So "byte >= 0x80 is part of an
584// identifier" consumes each multi-byte character whole, leaves every ASCII
585// decision untouched, and keeps `src[start..pos]` on a char boundary.
586//
587// Without this the `yakugo` language packs cannot exist at all: `définir` died
588// on 'Ã' and `定義` on 'å' — a UTF-8 continuation byte reported as a character,
589// which is the diagnostic a byte-oriented lexer gives for text it was never
590// built to read.
591//
592// PERMISSIVE, deliberately and worth stating: this admits any non-ASCII byte,
593// so an emoji or a lone combining mark is a legal identifier. Enforcing
594// XID_Start/XID_Continue would need real char decoding through the whole
595// lexer. Accepting too much is a surface question; rejecting every non-Latin
596// script was a correctness one.
