I've posted a first rough cut of an edn parser written in plain Java here: https://github.com/bpsm/edn-java
The parser itself is Wirthian, which is to say it's a hand-written LL(2) scanner coupled with a hand-written LL(1) recursive decent parser. This is easy enough to do for edn's uncomplicated grammar. The parser can be configured with custom tag handlers. Handlers from #uuid and #inst are provided. (The handler for #inst, however, is the kind of code no one can love and has no unit tests.) There are hooks available to control which collections are created by [], (), #{} and {}. The design, package structure, naming, public interfaces -- everything -- is still subject to change. There are probably some bugs. Clarification of some of the open issues on https://github.com/edn-format/edn may bring tweaks to the parser. Javadocs are currently MIA. I'll wait with that until I'm more confident that I've found a design I like. Feedback welcome. Tell me what sucks about it so that I can make it better. // Ben -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
