Implementation

To customize you should extract tokens with regular expression. Then you should create the template of original language with token you extracted.

Token Extraction

Syntax

typeofsynax:
    regex: regex (regex for token1) <var1> regex
    tokens: [token1,token2,token3]
    unmatch:
    - regex
    global: True
    once: True
    next: [other_typeofsyntax,$collection_name]
    token1:
        unmatch:
        - regex
        eachline: extra_here <line> extra_here
        replace:
        - [regex,"replacewith"]
        - ["regex here"]
        call: [other_typeofsyntax,$collection_name]
_1typeofsyntax:
    regex: regex2
    tokens: [token1,token2,token3]
#Code here(like above)
#...................
#...................
#...................
settings:
    collections:
        collection_name: [typeofsyntax1,typeofsyntax2]
    varfile: filename_without_extension
    variables:
        var1: regex1
        var2: regex2
        var3 : regex3
    after: #Command Line Commands
    errfile: # Base Name
    #after:
    #- Command One
    #- Command Two
    #after:
    #       windows: Command
    #       linux: Command

typeofsyntax

Name of syntax you wanted to match

Eg. arithmetic, loop etc.

If one type have same pattern but different regular expression to match.

You can write _<any character><typeofsyntax> for next regex.

Eg. _1typeofsyntax

Both regex use one template

regex

Place where regular expression to match block of code..

Regular expression for tokens must be inside brackets.

~ acts like s*in regular expression

tokens

Name of tokens you wanted to extract

unmatch

List of regex that should not be matched. It can be used in token option also

global

If it is False it works only after calling it otherwise it works normally.

once

If it is True it works only once

next

To pass converted syntax into another or same typeofsyntax

token1

To modify token1 matched

eachline

To add content in each line.

<line> represents original content in eachline. It loops through every line.

replace

call

settings block

For setting variables, collections, after command

variables

You can make variables than can used inside regular expression by <varname>

varfile

collections

after

errfile

regex and tokens should be in all typeofsyntax.

Others are optional

Example

shorthand:
  regex: <var>\+=<var>
  tokens: [var,num]
settings:
    variables:
        var: ([A-Za-z0-9_]+)

Template

Template of syntax of target language

Syntax

typeofsyntax: "syntax1 <token1> middle syntax <token2> syntax3 <token3>"

typeofsyntax - Name of typeofsyntax in token extraction file.

token1,token2,token3 - Represents tokens extracted with regular expression in token extraction file.

Write tokens inside template of original language(<tokename>)

Example

shorthand: (incf <var> <num>)

Linting

To match error with regular expression.

If error is matched, part of code with error and error message will be displayed.

Syntax

Syntax of error file

typeofsyntax: # typeofsyntax block
    # Errors Block----------

    NameofError:
        #Error Details------
        regex: Regex
        msg: Error Message
        help: Help Message
        #-------------------

    NameofError1:
        #Error Details here

    # ----------------------

    # Outside Block---------
    outside:
        # Errors Block here
    #-----------------------

typeofsyntax1:
    #Errors Block here
    #Outside Block here

# Outside Block here

typeofsyntax Block

Block name is name of typeofsyntax in token extraction file. Regex is only matched inside text matched by main regex.

Outside Block

To match error regex in whole source code.

For errors related to a typeofsyntax, outside block should be inside typeofsyntax block.

For errors not related to any typeofsyntax, outside block should be used outside block

NameofError

Name of the error you want to match

Eg. TypeError, Syntax Error etc.

Regex

Regular expression to match error part of code

Error Message

Details of error

Help Message (optional)

Steps to resolve the error

Example

fstring:
    Cannot_Quote:
        regex: '{(?:(?!\}).)*"'
        msg: "Can't use '\"' inside '{}'"
        help: Asign constant to a variable and add that variable to fstring
    Multiple_Curly:
        regex: '{(?:(?!}).)*{'
        msg: Cant't use nested curly brace
outside:
    Invalid_Object:
        regex: 'class <var>\((?:(?!\)).)*\n'
        msg: No Multiline
