How to parse annotations

[f3l1x]

Hi! ✋ This library looks great and I would like to take a closer look.

Let's say I would like to practice on annotations.

/**
* @foo Simple line
* @bar Advanced line with !@#$%^&*()
* @baz Multi line
*            with extra line
*/

Could you please point me how to start with it? :-)

Thank you, Felix

I assume you've seen the docs at https://parsica.verraes.net/ ? Have a look at the code as well, especially the /tests and the json example.

A good heuristic is to start from the inside. Parse a text line, parse a @, parse a keyword, and then combine those. For multilines, you could parse many whitespace * whitespace text line combos. Finally use between() for the outsides.

Does that help?

@mathiasverraes Thank you for pointing me. I was hoping for some more specific code example, but I can learn it from the tests.
