## ==================
## Module yaml/parser
## ==================
##
## This is the low-level parser API. A ``YamlParser`` enables you to parse any
## non-nil string or Stream object as YAML character stream.

import tables, strutils, macros, streams
import stream, private/lex, private/internal, private/escaping, data

when defined(nimNoNil):
    {.experimental: "notnil".}

type
  YamlParser* = object
    ## A parser object. Retains its ``TagLibrary`` across calls to
    ## `parse <#parse,YamlParser,Stream>`_. Can be used
    ## to access anchor names while parsing a YAML character stream, but
    ## only until the document goes out of scope (i.e. until
    ## ``yamlEndDocument`` is yielded).
    issueWarnings: bool

  State = proc(c: Context, e: var Event): bool {.gcSafe.}

  Level = object
    state: State
    indentation: int

  Context = ref object of YamlStream
    handles: seq[tuple[handle, uriPrefix: string]]
    issueWarnings: bool
    lex: Lexer
    levels: seq[Level]
    keyCache: seq[Event]
    keyCachePos: int
    caching: bool

    headerProps, inlineProps: Properties
    headerStart, inlineStart: Mark
    blockIndentation: int

  YamlLoadingError* = object of ValueError
    ## Base class for all exceptions that may be raised during the process
    ## of loading a YAML character stream.
    mark*: Mark ## position at which the error has occurred.
    lineContent*: string ## \
      ## content of the line where the error was encountered. Includes a
      ## second line with a marker ``^`` at the position where the error
      ## was encountered.

  YamlParserError* = object of YamlLoadingError
    ## A parser error is raised if the character stream that is parsed is
    ## not a valid YAML character stream. This stream cannot and will not be
    ## parsed wholly nor partially and all events that have been emitted by
    ## the YamlStream the parser provides should be discarded.
    ##
    ## A character stream is invalid YAML if and only if at least one of the
    ## following conditions apply:
    ##
    ## - There are invalid characters in an element whose contents is
    ##   restricted to a limited set of characters. For example, there are
    ##   characters in a tag URI which are not valid URI characters.
    ## - An element has invalid indentation. This can happen for example if
    ##   a block list element indicated by ``"- "`` is less indented than
    ##   the element in the previous line, but there is no block sequence
    ##   list open at the same indentation level.
    ## - The YAML structure is invalid. For example, an explicit block map
    ##   indicated by ``"? "`` and ``": "`` may not suddenly have a block
    ##   sequence item (``"- "``) at the same indentation level. Another
    ##   possible violation is closing a flow style object with the wrong
    ##   closing character (``}``, ``]``) or not closing it at all.
    ## - A custom tag shorthand is used that has not previously been
    ##   declared with a ``%TAG`` directive.
    ## - Multiple tags or anchors are defined for the same node.
    ## - An alias is used which does not map to any anchor that has
    ##   previously been declared in the same document.
    ## - An alias has a tag or anchor associated with it.
    ##
    ## Some elements in this list are vague. For a detailed description of a
    ## valid YAML character stream, see the YAML specification.
