bynk-syntax

The syntax foundation of the Bynk compiler — the lowest leaf of the compiler's layered crate set.

It holds the modules every other layer depends on and none depend up from:

• lexer — the logos-driven token stream.
• parser / ast — hand-written recursive descent and the syntax tree it builds.
• span — source byte ranges, plus the line_col position utility.
• keywords — the reserved-word table.
• error — CompileError (the structured, spanned diagnostic every phase produces) and Severity.
• diagnostics — the registry of bynk.* diagnostic codes (the single source of truth for the codes, summaries, and grammar links).

Because diagnostics, positions, and codes all live here, they cross every crate in the compiler without an upward dependency.

Where it sits

bynk-syntax is the leaf of the layered compiler:

bynk-syntax  ◀── bynk-render · bynk-fmt · bynk-check ◀── bynk-emit ◀── bynk-ide

The bynkc, bynk, and bynk-lsp binaries are front-ends over this set. Most users compile Bynk through the bynkc or bynk CLIs rather than depending on this crate directly; it is published so tooling that needs only to lex or parse Bynk can do so without linking the whole compiler.

Use

[dependencies]
bynk-syntax = "0.132"

use bynk_syntax::{lexer, parser};

let tokens = lexer::tokenize(source)?;
let unit = parser::parse(&tokens, source)?;
