//! # Custom [`Stream`][crate::stream::Stream] //! //! `winnow` is batteries included with support for //! - Basic inputs like `&str`, newtypes with //! - Improved debug output like [`Bytes`][crate::Bytes] //! - [`Stateful`][crate::Stateful] for passing state through your parser, like tracking recursion //! depth //! - [`Located`][crate::Located] for looking up the absolute position of a token //! //! But that won't always cut it for your parser. For example, you might lex `&str` into //! a series of tokens and then want to parse a `TokenStream`. //! //! ## Implementing a custom stream //! //! Let's assume we have an input type we'll call `MyStream`. `MyStream` is a sequence of `MyItem` type. //! The goal is to define parsers with this signature: `MyStream -> IResult`. //! //! ```rust //! # use winnow::prelude::*; //! # use winnow::token::tag; //! # type MyStream<'i> = &'i str; //! # type Output<'i> = &'i str; //! fn parser(i: MyStream<'_>) -> IResult, Output<'_>> { //! "test".parse_next(i) //! } //! ``` //! //! Here are the traits we have to implement for `MyStream`: //! //! | trait | usage | //! |---|---| //! | [`Stream`] |Core trait for driving parsing| //! | [`StreamIsPartial`] | Marks the input as being the complete buffer or a partial buffer for streaming input | //! | [`AsBytes`] |Casts the input type to a byte slice| //! | [`AsBStr`] |Casts the input type to a slice of ASCII / UTF-8-like bytes| //! | [`Compare`] |Character comparison operations| //! | [`FindSlice`] |Look for a substring in self| //! | [`Location`] |Calculate location within initial input| //! | [`Offset`] |Calculate the offset between slices| //! //! Here are the traits we have to implement for `MyItem`: //! //! | trait | usage | //! |---|---| //! | [`AsChar`] |Transforms common types to a char for basic token parsing| //! | [`ContainsToken`] |Look for the token in the given set| //! //! And traits for slices of `MyItem`: //! //! | [`SliceLen`] |Calculate the input length| //! | [`ParseSlice`] |Used to integrate `&str`'s `parse()` method| #[allow(unused_imports)] // Here for intra-dock links use crate::stream::*;
