whitespace

Tries to match one or more whitespaces (regex: /[\r\n\t\f\v ]+/).

Available since: v1.0.0-alpha.1

Type declaration

const whitespace: (name?: string) => Parser;

Example

In this example we are going to parse a newline (\n), an arbitrary word followed by another newline.

import { sequenceOf, whitespace, word } from "rudus";

const parser = sequenceOf([whitespace(), word(), whitespace()]);

const result = parser.run(`
Hello
`);

The result of the parser above will be:

{
  "input": "
Hello
",
  "isError": false,
  "offset": 7,
  "result": ["
", "Hello", "
"]
}
