synopsis: An Attoparsec compatibility layer for Parsec
description: This package provides an implementation of
"Data.Attoparsec.Text" in terms of Parsec.
It can be used to write parsers that can be compiled against
both Attoparsec and Parsec.
.
Attoparsec is an awesome and very fast library, but it still
has a weak point: It does not generate very useful error
messages on parse errors. Compiling an Attoparsec parser
against Parsec can be useful for at least two scenarios.
.
- Parsec can be used while developing Attoparsec parsers, so
that you get better error messages on failing test cases.
.
- You can use Attoparsec for parsing, so that you benefit
from it's speed. And on parse errors you can re-parse the
input with Parsec, so that you can display a useful error
message to the user.
.
A simple usage example is here:
