ยง๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Coq Parser Developer Guide

Coq support for the Oak language framework.

This guide is designed to help you quickly get started with developing and integrating oak-coq.

ยง๐Ÿšฆ Quick Start

ยงBasic Parsing Example

The following is a standard workflow for parsing a simple Coq theorem:

use oak_coq::{CoqParser, SourceText, CoqLanguage};

fn main() {
    // 1. Prepare source code
    let code = r#"
        Theorem add_0_n : forall n : nat, 0 + n = n.
        Proof.
          intros n. reflexivity.
        Qed.
    "#;
    let source = SourceText::new(code);

    // 2. Initialize parser
    let config = CoqLanguage::new();
    let parser = CoqParser::new(&config);

    // 3. Execute parsing
    let result = parser.parse(&source);

    // 4. Handle results
    if result.is_success() {
        println!("Parsing successful! AST node count: {}", result.node_count());
    } else {
        eprintln!("Errors found during parsing.");
    }
}

ยง๐Ÿ” Core API Usage

ยง1. Syntax Tree Traversal

After a successful parse, you can use the built-in visitor pattern or manually traverse the Green/Red Tree to extract Coq constructs like theorem declarations, proof tactics, or Gallina terms.

ยง2. Incremental Parsing

No need to re-parse the entire script when small changes occur:

// Assuming you have an old parse result 'old_result' and new source text 'new_source'
let new_result = parser.reparse(&new_source, &old_result);

ยง3. Diagnostics

oak-coq provides rich error contexts specifically tailored for Coq developers:

for diag in result.diagnostics() {
    println!("[{}:{}] {}", diag.line, diag.column, diag.message);
}

ยง๐Ÿ—๏ธ Architecture Overview

  • Lexer: Tokenizes Coq source text into a stream of tokens, handling keywords, operators, identifiers, and complex notation delimiters.
  • Parser: Syntax analyzer based on the Pratt parsing algorithm to handle Coqโ€™s extensible syntax, vernacular commands, and tactic blocks.
  • AST: A strongly-typed syntax abstraction layer designed for building high-performance Coq analysis tools and interactive proof environments.

ยง๐Ÿ”— Advanced Resources

  • Full Examples: Check the examples/ folder in the project root.
  • API Documentation: Run cargo doc --open for detailed type definitions.
  • Test Cases: See tests/ for handling of various Coq notation edge cases and formal development structures.
