CoreErlang

CoreErlang is a haskell library which consists on a parser and pretty-printer for the intermediate language used by Erlang.

The parser uses the Parsec library and the pretty-printer was modelled after the corresponding module of the haskell-src package. It also exposes a Syntax module which allows easy manipulation of terms.

It is able to parse and pretty print all of Core Erlang. Remaining work includes customizing the pretty printer and refining the syntax interface.

Syntax

module ::= module Atom [fnamei1 , ... , fnameik] attributes [attr1, ..., attrm] fundef1 ... fundefn end

attr ::= Atom = const

fundef ::= fname = fun

fname ::= Atom / Integer

const ::= lit | clist | ctuple | cmap

clist ::= [const1 | const2]

ctuple ::= {const1 , ..., constn}

cmap ::= ~{const1 => const2 , ..., constm => constn}~

lit ::= Atom | Integer | Float | Char | String | [ ]

fun ::= fun (var1, ..., varn) -> exprs

var ::= VariableName

exprs ::= expr | <expr1 , ..., exprn>

expr ::= var | fname | lit | fun

​            | [exprs1 | exprs2]

​            | {exprs1, ..., exprsn}

​            | ~{exprs1 => exprs2 , ..., exprsm => exprsn}~

​            | let vars = exprs1 in exprs2

​            | case exprs of clause1 · · · clausen end

​            | letrec fname1 = fun1 · · · fnamen = funn in exprs

​            | apply exprs0 (exprs1, . . ., exprsn)

​            | call exprs′1:exprs′2(exprs1, . . ., exprsn)

​            | primop Atom(exprs1, . . ., exprsn)

​            | receive clause1 · · · clausen after exprs1 -> exprs2

​            | try exprs1 of <var1, . . .varn> -> exprs2

​              catch <varn+1, . . .varn+m> -> exprs3

​            | do exprs1 exprs2

​            | catch exprs

vars ::= var | <var1, ..., varn>

clause ::= pats when exprs1 -> exprs2

pats ::= pat | <pat1, ..., patn>

pat ::= var | lit | var = pat | plist | ptuple | pmap

plist ::= [pat1 | pat2]

ptuple ::= {pat1, ..., patn}

pmap ::= ~{pkey1 := pat1, ..., pkeyn := patn}~

pkey ::= var | lit
