pub fn parser<I, O, F>(f: F) -> FnParser<I, F>
Expand description
Wraps a function, turning it into a parser Mainly needed to turn closures into parsers as function types can be casted to function pointers to make them usable as a parser
extern crate parser_combinators as pc;
use pc::*;
use pc::primitives::{Consumed, Error};
let mut even_digit = parser(|input| {
let position = input.position;
let (char_digit, input) = try!(digit().parse_state(input));
let d = (char_digit as i32) - ('0' as i32);
if d % 2 == 0 {
Ok((d, input))
}
else {
//Return an empty error since we only tested the first token of the stream
Err(Consumed::Empty(ParseError::new(position, Error::Expected(From::from("even number")))))
}
});
let result = even_digit
.parse("8")
.map(|x| x.0);
assert_eq!(result, Ok(8));
