Function winnow::token::literal

pub fn literal<Literal, Input, Error>(
    literal: Literal,
) -> impl Parser<Input, <Input as Stream>::Slice, Error>
where
    Input: StreamIsPartial + Stream + Compare<Literal>,
    Literal: SliceLen + Clone + Debug,
    Error: ParserError<Input>,

Recognizes a literal

The input data will be compared to the literal combinator’s argument and will return the part of the input that matches the argument

It will return Err(ErrMode::Backtrack(InputError::new(_, ErrorKind::Tag))) if the input doesn’t match the literal

Note: Parser is implemented for strings and byte strings as a convenience (complete only)

Effective Signature

Assuming you are parsing a &str Stream:

pub fn literal(literal: &str) -> impl Parser<&str, &str, ContextError>

Example

fn parser(s: &str) -> IResult<&str, &str> {
  "Hello".parse_peek(s)
}

assert_eq!(parser("Hello, World!"), Ok((", World!", "Hello")));
assert_eq!(parser("Something"), Err(ErrMode::Backtrack(InputError::new("Something", ErrorKind::Tag))));
assert_eq!(parser(""), Err(ErrMode::Backtrack(InputError::new("", ErrorKind::Tag))));

fn parser(s: Partial<&str>) -> IResult<Partial<&str>, &str> {
  "Hello".parse_peek(s)
}

assert_eq!(parser(Partial::new("Hello, World!")), Ok((Partial::new(", World!"), "Hello")));
assert_eq!(parser(Partial::new("Something")), Err(ErrMode::Backtrack(InputError::new(Partial::new("Something"), ErrorKind::Tag))));
assert_eq!(parser(Partial::new("S")), Err(ErrMode::Backtrack(InputError::new(Partial::new("S"), ErrorKind::Tag))));
assert_eq!(parser(Partial::new("H")), Err(ErrMode::Incomplete(Needed::new(4))));

use winnow::token::literal;
use winnow::ascii::Caseless;

fn parser(s: &str) -> IResult<&str, &str> {
  literal(Caseless("hello")).parse_peek(s)
}

assert_eq!(parser("Hello, World!"), Ok((", World!", "Hello")));
assert_eq!(parser("hello, World!"), Ok((", World!", "hello")));
assert_eq!(parser("HeLlO, World!"), Ok((", World!", "HeLlO")));
assert_eq!(parser("Something"), Err(ErrMode::Backtrack(InputError::new("Something", ErrorKind::Tag))));
assert_eq!(parser(""), Err(ErrMode::Backtrack(InputError::new("", ErrorKind::Tag))));
