Another step would be to get a minimal parser not relying on PetitParser.
Letâs think differently: why not to include a tiny PetitParser? Then we can think on:
- pillar sintax (better than just a restricted version) - simplify other âsmall parsersâ that are already on the image. - we provide a tool to o cool stuff (instead relying as always in regexp, etc.)
+1 I like that. I always feel bad if I use regex in pharo because I think I can do better. But then installing petit parser just to do some parsing sounds heavy weight. And parsing is such central functionality that it would be good to have a small parser near the core. For pillar I would like to see that class comments are a layer on top of the image core. It is metadata that can be optional and pillar could be a dependency to that layer. This would make it possible to strip out on deployment, too. Because I don't need class comments on my server :) Norbert
