GeoRust VS pest

And, uhh, I searched and, https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-03382-2 this article cites.. geosciences as well? https://github.com/georust/geo

And some related parser tools: - https://github.com/kevinmehall/rust-peg - https://github.com/pest-parser/pest - https://github.com/lalrpop/lalrpop

I had recently completed the first year of my Computer Science class at school and will begin my second year soon. My schools' class forces the use of Java programming language, and I absolutely hated it. So, over the course of a little less than a month, I wrote my own programming language, in Rust (objectively best programming language), using pest, to be as similar to Rust as possible, but compiling to Java.

I second pest.rs. Using it is fairly intuitive and there's also a live playground on their website which is great for quickly developing and testing your AST (abstract syntax tree) parser for whatever language you're implementing.

I’ve been using pest for my own dsl resently. Couldn’t say if it’s state of the art or not, but it is definitely useful. https://pest.rs

Give https://pest.rs a try.

Maybe Pest or Nom for parsing the language.

I haven't written any template engines, but I imagine you'd want to use a proper parser generator like nom, pest, etc. to get the statefulness you need. As the famous StackOverflow answer says, you can't parse a non-regular language with a regular expression... or at least not the kind of "no lookahead/lookbehind" regex engine Rust uses.

But personally I would recommend something like Pest (which is still fairly popular). (Creates)

This was in C, and there it's a pointer arithmetic nightmare. Also, this was before I had any education in writing parsers. These days I'd probably just use a parser generator like pest.
