Luke Boswell (Dec 03 2023 at 04:38): Luke Boswell (Dec 03 2023 at 04:38):Just wanted to let everyone know that I just updated the documentation for roc-parser.
Thank you for the feedback from AoC, I really appreciate it.
If anyone finds anything that could be improved, please raise an issue.
Oskar Hahn (Dec 03 2023 at 04:40):Wow. I did not know this documentation existed. Maybe you could add a link to the readme on https://github.com/lukewilliamboswell/roc-parser
Luke Boswell (Dec 03 2023 at 04:41):I tried to include examples for most of the usual suspects. You should be able to copy-paste the examples and they will work.
We have discussed previously a design for enabling expectations in doc comments to be actually tests, but that isn't implemented yet. So these are included as tests in the String module.
Luke Boswell (Dec 03 2023 at 04:42):@Oskar Hahn thats great feedback, will do
Chris Duncan (Dec 05 2023 at 12:55):I've been loving this library. I was just using it this morning for the Advent of Code. The examples in the documentation has helped a lot to use the library. I'm having trouble with the final composition of the parser, but I'll check if someone else has encountered a similar problem before opening a thread.
Luke Boswell (Jan 13 2024 at 00:28):New release of roc-parser 0.4.0, primarily to update for changes with string interpolation.
Andrew C (Jan 18 2024 at 18:21):Documentation is great, and the keep and skip functions are very well named. I used to write parsers in haskell and until today I thought I would forever miss the <$>, <$ and $> operators, but now I think those operators are needlessly confusing and esoteric notation. It's also lovely that the examples I've seen are done without using <- Very well thought out. Very well done. :+1:
Luke Boswell (Jan 18 2024 at 19:56):Glad to hear your enjoying using it. The skip and keep idea came from @Richard Feldman and I love it too!
