Dear CL-JSON and Parenscript developers,
I have cloned a functional Javascript parser (from JWACS) and turned it into its own project, which is fully functional but comes with a few annoyances. However, I would appreciate some help coding to make js-parser into a clean package. There are two main issues that need addressing:
1. There are a bunch of warnings about reduce/reduce conflicts in the parser. I couldn't immediately get them out, but I'm sure somebody with more parsing experience should be able to fix the grammar.
2. The project does not use the official, supported version of cl-yacc available here http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/cl-yacc/ Instead it packages its own version, which causes problems if you need the official version of cl-yacc (e.g. closure xml). Theoretically this is a simple change but I don't know for sure.
Hopefully this project catches your fancy. I have found a need for a JavaScript parser a bunch of times, from a javascript-to-parenscript converter to screen scraping. Let me know if you would like to contribute. The code is available here: http://github.com/gonzojive/js-parser/tree/master
git clone git://github.com/gonzojive/js-parser.git
Very truly yours,
Red Daly
