This library is a full rewrite of aw-action-parser by David Guerrero.
It parses ActiveWorlds object action strings (also known as object scripting) into a machine-friendly data model.
This project uses Chevrotain instead of Ohm, mainly for performance reasons. It also uses TypeScript and aims for exhaustive test coverage.
import { Action } from 'action-parser';
const action = new Action();
action.parse('create color blue, sign "hello!"; activate color salmon, rotate -.5 loop nosync');The parse() function will then return an object looking like this:
{
create: [
{
commandType: 'color',
color: { r: 0, g: 0, b: 255 }
}
],
activate: [
{
commandType: 'color',
color: { r: 111, g: 66, b: 66 }
},
{
commandType: 'rotate',
speed: { x: 0, y: -0.5, z: 0 },
loop: true,
sync: false
}
]
}The parsing is very strict (the whole parsing fails on invalid commands) and some commands might be missing.
Important
Some edge cases are not handled properly for the moment, especially on signs (eg. create sign "; activate something).
