A lossless Lua 5.1 parser written in Rust.
## Lossless?
Full Moon preserves comments, whitespace, style choices, etc. With Full Moon, you're able to convert your Lua code into an AST and a syntax tree and convert it back to the original code exactly.
Using Full Moon, you'll be able to modify the AST directly and re-export it back to Lua, all while preserving the style in which you write.
## Why?
Full Moon is usable in projects such as:
- Static analysis (like Luacheck or [rust-clippy](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy))
- Static typing (like TypeScript)
- Automatic mass code refactoring (like [jscodeshift](https://github.com/facebook/jscodeshift))
- Automatic code formatting (like [rustfmt](https://github.com/rust-lang/rustfmt))
- An [LSP Server](https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/) for Lua
## Inspiration
Full Moon is heavily inspired by [LPGhatguy's mab](https://github.com/LPGhatguy/mab/) and by the possibilities brought on by [benjamn's recast](https://github.com/benjamn/recast).
