Nice parsers in OCaml without the boilerplate

Overview

The Nice Parser is an OCaml library that allows users to easily write parsers with nice error messages. It consists of two parts: the nice_parser library which provides a nice interface and beautiful error messages, and the example parser which serves as a starting point for users to create their own parsers.

Features

  • Nice_parser library: Consolidates boilerplate code and wraps auto-generated parsers in a user-friendly interface with visually appealing error messages.
  • Example parser: Provides a skeleton parser that allows users to quickly start creating their own parsers. It is based on nice_parser and uses standard tools such as Menhir, ocamllex, dune, and base.

Summary

The Nice Parser is an OCaml library that simplifies the process of writing parsers with improved error messages. It provides the nice_parser library for wrapping auto-generated parsers with a user-friendly interface and beautiful error messages. Additionally, the example parser serves as a starting point for users to quickly create their own parsers. The installation process involves installing necessary dependencies using opam and building the project using dune. Suggestions and improvements are welcome through pull requests or issues.
