Clojurians Log v2

You can even run the whole test suite against any parser in the browser

It caches results and you can get an instant omparison report

Use K to see key shortcuts to get started

This would be used as an alternate to parser to SnakeYAML to make clj-yaml available as pure Clojure.

I'd be glad to help out if there is interest in doing something.

FYI

Cool, @ingy!

I wonder if it might make sense to create a separate yaml lib instead of trying to shoehorn this into clj-yaml. Do you know if the reference implementation is babashka compatible? What's the intended public API?

it looks like something is bb compatible:

$ rlwrap bb
Babashka v1.12.214-SNAPSHOT REPL.
Use :repl/quit or :repl/exit to quit the REPL.
Clojure rocks, Bash reaches.

user=> (require '[yaml-parser.core :as y])
nil
user=> (y/parse-yaml "- a")
"+STR\n+DOC\n+SEQ\n=VAL :a\n-SEQ\n-DOC\n-STR\n"

https://github.com/yaml/yaml-reference-parser/blob/main/parser-1.2/clojure/bb.edn 🙂

yaml parsers turn yaml into a stream of event structs this is what you use snakeyaml for and what the refparser does

I assume the integration would be rather trivial

I will say that the reference parser is not very performant...

yet, 🙂

It was originally written he cause not a yaml parser passed the test suite in 2021.

Now a bunch do. I'd say 6 7?

😂

at least 4

The reference parser is generated code from the (211) spec productions turned into a yaml file

generated as perl, coffeescript, javascript and now clojure

I actually have yes for it in YS, Because avoiding snake and having it be pure clojure Opens up doors to other clojure platforms

@lee I agree having as a separate lib is probably wisest for now

If there is even any interest. I would like to see the generated code become more performant. esp if I do anything serious with if.

Having it in clojure feels like a win towards that goal

I'm sure you guys know of a lot of tools that would help with that
