# backyard-lexer

Generating tokens representation of PHP code.

## features

- Parse string to tokens _(lex() & lex_eval())_

## usage

    import { lex } from "@alzera/backyard";

    const code = `<?php
    function hello_world($foo) {
      var_dump($foo);
    }`;

    const tokens = lex(code);
    console.log(JSON.stringify(tokens, null, 2));

Resulting this json:

    [
      {
        "token_type": "Function",
        "value": "function",
        "line": 2,
        "column": 0,
        "offset": 6
      },
      {
        "token_type": "Identifier",
        "value": "hello_world",
        "line": 2,
        "column": 9,
        "offset": 15
      },
      {
        "token_type": "LeftParenthesis",
        "value": "(",
        "line": 2,
        "column": 20,
        "offset": 26
      },
      {
        "token_type": "Variable",
        "value": "foo",
        "line": 2,
        "column": 21,
        "offset": 27
      },
      {
        "token_type": "RightParenthesis",
        "value": ")",
        "line": 2,
        "column": 25,
        "offset": 31
      },
      {
        "token_type": "LeftCurlyBracket",
        "value": "{",
        "line": 2,
        "column": 27,
        "offset": 33
      },
      {
        "token_type": "Identifier",
        "value": "var_dump",
        "line": 3,
        "column": 2,
        "offset": 37
      },
      {
        "token_type": "LeftParenthesis",
        "value": "(",
        "line": 3,
        "column": 10,
        "offset": 45
      },
      {
        "token_type": "Variable",
        "value": "foo",
        "line": 3,
        "column": 11,
        "offset": 46
      },
      {
        "token_type": "RightParenthesis",
        "value": ")",
        "line": 3,
        "column": 15,
        "offset": 50
      },
      {
        "token_type": "Semicolon",
        "value": ";",
        "line": 3,
        "column": 16,
        "offset": 51
      },
      {
        "token_type": "RightCurlyBracket",
        "value": "}",
        "line": 4,
        "column": 0,
