Silverfly is a versatile parsing framework that provides extensive support for building custom parsers with ease. It supports Pratt parsing, a powerful method for parsing expressions and statements in a flexible manner.

Features

• Flexible Parsing: Supports Pratt parsing for complex expression handling.
• Extensible: Easily extend the parser and lexer with custom rules.
• Documentation: Comprehensive instructions available in the wiki.

Installation

To install Silverfly, you can use NuGet:

dotnet add package Silverfly

Usage

using Silverfly;

public class Program
{
    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        while (true)
        {
            Console.Write("> ");
            var input = Console.ReadLine();

            var parsed = new ExpressionGrammar().Parse(input);
            var evaluated = parsed.Tree.Accept(new EvaluationVisitor());

            Console.WriteLine("> " + evaluated);
        }
    }
}
