    Provides classes for dealing with context-free grammars in EBNF form.

    Provides classes for dealing with context-free grammars in EBNF form.

    Provides a org.benknoble.ebnf.Grammar model, complete with scala DSL for creating complex grammars in code, and an org.benknoble.ebnf.EbnfParser to generate Grammars from a String.

    Overview

    The main class is org.benknoble.ebnf.Grammar:

    scala> val grammar = Grammar(
     |   new Production(
     |     Nonterminal('A),
     |     Alternation(Nonterminal('A),
     |     Sequence(Repetition(Terminal("abc")), Option(Terminal("def"))))))
grammar: org.benknoble.ebnf.Grammar = Grammar(List(Production(Nonterminal('A), Alternation(Nonterminal('A),Sequence(Repetition(Terminal(abc)),Option(Terminal(def)))))))

scala> val s = grammar.format
s: String = <A> ::= <A>|{'abc'}['def'] ;

    If you include org.benknoble.ebnf.ExprImplicits and take advantage of org.benknoble.ebnf.Expr syntax, it looks a lot cleaner:

    scala> val grammar = Grammar('A ::= 'A || Terminal("abc").* ~ "def".?)
grammar: org.benknoble.ebnf.Grammar = Grammar(List(Production(Nonterminal('A), Alternation(Nonterminal('A),Sequence(Repetition(Terminal(abc)),Option(Terminal(def)))))))

scala> val s = grammar.format
s: String = <A> ::= <A>|{'abc'}['def'] ;

    Finally, you can take advantage of org.benknoble.ebnf.EbnfParser:

    scala> val grammar = EbnfParser("<A> ::= <A>|{'abc'}['def'] ;")
grammar: Either[String,org.benknoble.ebnf.Grammar] = Right(Grammar(List(Production(Nonterminal('A), Alternation(Nonterminal('A),Sequence(Repetition(Terminal(abc)),Option(Terminal(def))))))))

scala> val msg = grammar.fold(s => s, g => g.format)
msg: String = <A> ::= <A>|{'abc'}['def'] ;
