  • How to write your own language plugin for IDEA (part 1)
    10 projects | dev.to | 26 Apr 2022
    Perhaps, the easiest way to create a lexer for IDEA is to use JFlex. The GrammarKit plugin already contains implementation and allows you to generate a lexer from .bnf file or from .flex file (with more customization options). An example for the Monkey language can be viewed here, a more complex one for Frege - here.

What are some alternatives?

When comparing lexer and JFlex you can also consider the following projects:

php-parser - :herb: NodeJS PHP Parser - extract AST or tokens

clex - clex is a simple lexer generator

intellij-erlang - Erlang IDE

moo - Optimised tokenizer/lexer generator! 🐄 Uses /y for performance. Moo.

RE-flex - A high-performance C++ regex library and lexical analyzer generator with Unicode support. Extends Flex++ with Unicode support, indent/dedent anchors, lazy quantifiers, functions for lex and syntax error reporting and more. Seamlessly integrates with Bison and other parsers.
