The purpose and intent of this project was to create and generate Typescript declaration files for the Antlr4 JavaScript target. Allowing for generated Antlr Parsers and Lexers that have full ES5 browser support. This tool also allows for pure JavaScript implementations, if needed.
- Java Runtime Environment 1.6+ (1.8+ recommended)
- Install antlr4-tool, adding it to your package.json
npm install --save-dev antlr4-tool- Install the Antlr4 library
npm install -S antlr4
#
# (TypeScript Only)
#
npm install -S @types/antlr4- Add a grammar to your project, e.g. path/to/Grammar.g4
"scripts": {
"generate-parser": "antlr4-tool -o parser path/to/Grammar.g4"
}- Run the NPM script command
npm run generate-parser- Use your generated Parser
JavaScript
const antlr4 = require('antlr4')
const InputStream = antlr4.InputStream;
const CommonTokenStream = antlr4.CommonTokenStream;
const GrammarParser = require('./parser/GrammarParser').GrammarParser;
const GrammarLexer = require('./parser/GrammarLexer').GrammarLexer;
const inputStream = new InputStream('int x = 10;');
const lexer = new GrammarLexer(inputStream);
const tokenStream = new CommonTokenStream(lexer);
const parser = new GrammarParser(tokenStream);
// Parse the input, where `compilationUnit` is whatever entry point you defined
const tree = parser.compilationUnit();
console.log(tree);TypeScript
import {InputStream, CommonTokenStream} from 'antlr4';
import {GrammarParser} from './parser/GrammarParser';
import {GrammarLexer} from './parser/GrammarLexer';
const inputStream = new InputStream('enter you grammar here');
const lexer = new GrammarLexer(inputStream);
const tokenStream = new CommonTokenStream(lexer);
const parser = new GrammarParser(tokenStream);
// Parse the input, where `compilationUnit` is whatever entry point you defined
const tree = parser.compilationUnit();
console.log(tree);Add to your tsconfig.json:
