Parsers class
Here in, the parsing rules/functions
The basic structure of the syntax tree generated is as follows:
Ruleset -> Declaration -> Value -> Expression -> Entity
Here's some Less code:
.class {
color: #fff;
border: 1px solid #000;
width: @w + 4px;
> .child {...}
}
And here's what the parse tree might look like:
Ruleset (Selector '.class', [
Declaration ("color", Value ([Expression [Color #fff]]))
Declaration ("border", Value ([Expression [Dimension 1px][Keyword "solid"][Color #000]]))
Declaration ("width", Value ([Expression [Operation "+" [Variable "@w"][Dimension 4px]]]))
Ruleset (Selector [Element '>', '.child'], [...])
])
In general, most rules will try to parse a token with the $re() function, and if the return
value is truly, will return a new node, of the relevant type. Sometimes, we need to check
first, before parsing, that's when we use peek().
