How to match til the end of an input string with a janet peg
aka a parsing expression grammar, aka the only reason i wanna use janet:
to match all the rest of the content in a string, use this:
(any 1)unlike most else i seen in PEGs, this is hella unclear. it literally means, more or less, match any amount of single characters, but god does that not help. instead, i think of it like “match anyone”: get anyone left.
Janet PEGs don't accept unicode??
nope! not easily, at least. you can match unicode characters, but NOTHING is
made easy for you, the way a regex /u flag will. that said, its still possible
with use of (to)
look, for example, at a truncated version of a PEG i’m writing to pull info from a french/english dictionary:
(def dict-result-peg
~{
# ... catch some stuff
:pronunciation (* "/" (to "/") "/")
# ... and so on
})
i wanna catch all the character in the words IPA prnounciation, which luckily
enough are surrounded by /s. since janets PEGs don’t allow for a character
class range of unicode prononciation strings, i instead use a (to "/") to
grab all the text between delimiters. it’s imprecise, but in this instance
perfect, as i know ill never get a / in the prnonciation guide

project finished: i stitched hisoka onto a cap
look at this and be nice, i’m much more sensitive to criticism than talented:
a shitty little ghost kitchen opened near our place, and on opening day they gave away free hats. i pulled out their logo embroidery then (lazily, badly) stitched on a patch.
