The Nineteenth Byte

Alright, I've been coding this JS parser from scratch for several hours without ever testing it, but now is the time. Wish me luck :P

betseg

> without ever testing it

brave

Downgoat

@ETHproductions does it parse normal JS or es6

TuxCopter

Isn't ES6 normal JS?

ETHproductions

Both, eventually

Right now it just tokenizes numbers, strings, reserved words, identifiers, and any of ;()[]{} and whitespace

SIGSEGV

Um what does it parse to?

ETHproductions

14:03

Right now it just creates a list of tokens

Downgoat

@ETHproductions what about operators

ETHproductions

Eventually it's going to be a tool that lets you know where you can cut bytes off of a program or function

@Downgoat Should've added those before testing with alert("Hello\"" + 5); -_-

Downgoat

I'm curious if I could sanely write JS tokenizer in a single regex

I don't think will be too hard

ETHproductions

I'm mostly using regex, but not entirely

Obviously you couldn't completely parse it in a JS regex due to the lack of balancing groups

Kritixi Lithos

@ETHproductions Is the parser written in JS as well?

Does it work?

ETHproductions

14:07

It might be possible to tokenize JS using a JS regex, but the distinction between / and regex literal will be pretty hard

@KritixiLithos Yep, and yes, but not anywhere near fully yet

Downgoat

@ETHproductions wait why do you need blancing group

oh wait no recursion shit

ETHproductions

I'll post it on GitHub once I finish the tokenizer

SIGSEGV

@ETHproductions but what about tokenizing JS regex with JS regex?

ETHproductions

That's probably possible. Doing that within the other tokenizing regex would not be pretty though :P

Downgoat

@Riker @ATaco @MendeleevLemon GitGoat idea: I could add it so you have ability to download a repo's Wiki offline. Will this be useful?

Kritixi Lithos

14:11

prolly

SIGSEGV

@ETH finally, can your code tokenize itself?

ETHproductions

Hang on, I haven't finished it yet :P

Gonna test it on this when I'm done

Oh hmm, I should probably tokenize comments too

Question: should => be tokenized in the same way as the "regular" operators? (I'm just lumping +, -, **, >=, &&, etc. into "operator")

Downgoat

@ETHproductions I mean technically it doesn't really matter, because you can always do if (token.data == "=>")

but I'd say so yeah

Q: plz send teh codez!

Note to Moderators and editors: This post's title is for effect and should not be changed. The misspelling is intentional and part of the challenge. Backstory The (stereo)typical bad SO question asks something along the lines of "plz send teh codez!" In other words, it asks someone to do ...

ETHproductions

@LearnHowToBeTransparent Right. Many people say "I could care less" to mean the same thing, but that's incorrect

fəˈnɛtɪk

@LearnHowToBeTransparent If you can not care less, you care so little that it is impossible to care less.

ETHproductions

Hmm, I think this regex matches all regexes: /\/(?:\\.|[^\\\/\n\r])+\/[gimux]*/

Oh shoot, that doesn't account for slashes in character classes (e.g. /[/]/)

Kritixi Lithos

@ETHproductions /a/gggg is not a valid JS regex

ETHproductions

14:31

> SyntaxError: invalid regular expression flag g

Um. That's... probably not the least misleading error message

@KritixiLithos Not sure how to account for that though

I guess I can just take care of that in the parsing step, right now I'm just tokenizing. It seems like JS tokenizes it in the same way, since the extra g are clearly counted as part of the regex

Kritixi Lithos

have all permutations of gimux and separate them with |

Learn How To Be Transparent

gimux* is wrong

ETHproductions

What would you suggest then?

I think those are the only flags JS regexes support

I think this one works, excluding flags: /\/(?:\\.|\[(?:\\.|[^\]\n\r])+\]|[^\\\/\n\r])+\/[gimux]*/

I really don't care about the extraneous flags. JS tokenizes them as part of the regex and then throws an error when it tries to parse the regex, so I'll do the same thing

fergusq

Do you use a regex to detect regex tokens? Isn't that impossible in some situations? Eg. is word /a/g two tokens word and /a/g or five tokens?

ETHproductions

Actually, I think I need to replace [gimux] with [A-Za-z], as JS does the same thing for all of those

@fergusq word /a/g is tokenized as ["word", "/", "a", "/", "g"], while /a/g is tokenized as ["/a/g"]

I'm not entierly using regex, so it isn't that hard to determine if the previous token was a value or not

SIGSEGV

14:38

Yas I just made my first FGITW

Learn How To Be Transparent

stackoverflow.com/questions/17843691/javascript-regex-to-match-a-regex

fergusq

So it depends on the character before the first / if it is a regex or not? I've never really understood how regex literals work.

ETHproductions

Right, because 1/a/g would be 1 divided by a divided by g

I mean, I also edited it to try to clarify some of the flaws that Dennis pointed out, and I also looked for some more loopholes, but I think it should be clearer and more well-defined now.

Why does the question @NewMainPosts just posted say that the question was asked by Community on the front page?

ETHproductions

Prolly cause the user was deleted

That's weird though, I've never noticed that before

user165474

Maybe.

Conor O'Brien

I think you can ask questions as a guest

user165474

But yeah, also on Community's user page, it says that the user hasn't posted.

user165474

Then again, Community is User# -1, so... it probably doesn't behave normally.

ETHproductions

No, it never shows any of Community's activity

user165474

yeah Thought so.

ETHproductions

afaicr, that is

user165474

I'm pretty sure Community isn't actually a user but just has a user page for some reason iirc

Hey @Conor, what would be the best way to versionize the tokenizer? I think just an extra parameter esversion would work fine, but should I call the versions 5, 6, 7, ... or 5, 2015, 2016, ...?

Conor O'Brien

hm, I'm more familiar with 5, 6, 7 notation, tho I'm not sure which is objectively better

ETHproductions

They've pretty much dropped 5, 6, 7 notation by now

I've never heard anyone talk about ES8

ECMAScript's standard is just ES5, ES6, ESNext (ES2016, ES2017, etc.)

Conor O'Brien

I've heard ES6 and ES7 tho
