Types

type Expression

type Expression []Function

Expression provides a series of postfix functions: even primitive values are represented here as zero-arity functions returning the value in question.

func (Expression) String

func (x Expression) String() string

type Function

type Function interface {
	// Arity the number of required function arguments;
	// Should be a constant number for each function instance.
	Arity() int
	// Precedence for infix priority; only has meaning where Arity is non-zero.
	// Should be a constant number for each function instance.
	Precedence() int
}

Function element of an Expression. Examples of function(s) are mathematical and boolean operators, if-else blocks, commands, etc. See package tapestry/template/types for specific functions.

type Pipe

type Pipe struct {
	Shunt
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Pipe extends the shunting yard to combine chains of expressions. Each link in the chain becomes the last parameter of the next expression in the chain. For example: Greeting | Capitalize | Append: " World!" where greeting is "hello" would become "Hello World!"

func (*Pipe) AddPipe

func (p *Pipe) AddPipe() (err error)

AddPipe delineates a link in a chain of functions.

func (*Pipe) GetExpression

func (p *Pipe) GetExpression() (ret Expression, err error)

GetExpression returns the pipe's postfix ordered output, clearing the pipe.

type Shunt

type Shunt struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Shunt-ing yard ( dijkstra ) to convert an infix function stream to a postfix function list. The key differences to the traditional algorithm are:

  • Tokens are replaced by Functions; operands are zero-arity functions ( which return the value of the operand. )
  • Uses a separate yard for each sub-expression ( rather than making parentheses an element in the symbol stream. )

func (*Shunt) AddExpression

func (s *Shunt) AddExpression(prev []Function)

AddExpression generated by another shunt or pipe.

func (*Shunt) AddFunction

func (s *Shunt) AddFunction(next Function)

AddFunction ( the next (infix) operation ) to the pending postfix expression. Zero-arity functions are moved directly to the output, otherwise they are shunted to a yard such that higher precedence functions will pop out of the yard first, leaving

func (*Shunt) BeginSubExpression

func (s *Shunt) BeginSubExpression()

BeginSubExpression delineates an opening parenthesis in a stream of functions.

func (*Shunt) EndSubExpression

func (s *Shunt) EndSubExpression()

EndSubExpression indicates a closing parenthesis in a stream of functions.

func (*Shunt) GetExpression

func (s *Shunt) GetExpression() (ret Expression, err error)

GetExpression returns the shunt's postfix ordered output, clearing the shunt.

type Yard

type Yard struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Yard containing functions suspended in their transition from infix to postfix.

type Yards

type Yards struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Yards contains a stack of shunting yards: one for each pending sub/expression.

func (Yards) Len

func (ys Yards) Len() int

Len returns count of pending sub/expressions.

func (*Yards) NewYard

func (ys *Yards) NewYard()

NewYard starts a new sub/expression.

func (*Yards) Pop

func (ys *Yards) Pop() (ret Yard)

Pop ends a sub/expression.

func (Yards) Top

func (ys Yards) Top() (ret *Yard)

Top aka innermost sub/expression.
