* Pre: Expose more in edn.
* Pre: Make it easier to work with ValueAndSpan.
with_spans() is a temporary hack, needed only because I don't care to
parse the bootstrap assertions from text right now.
* Part 1a: Add `value_and_span` for parsing nested `edn::ValueAndSpan` instances.
I wasn't able to abstract over `edn::Value` and `edn::ValueAndSpan`;
there are multiple obstacles. I chose to roll with
`edn::ValueAndSpan` since it exposes the additional span information
that we will want to form good error messages in the future.
* Part 1b: Add keyword_map() parsing an `edn::Value::Vector` into an `edn::Value::map`.
* Part 1c: Add `Log`/`.log(...)` for logging parser progress.
This is a terrible hack, but it sure helps to debug complicated nested
parsers. I don't even know what a principled approach would look
like; since our parser combinators are so frequently expressed in
code, it's hard to imagine a data-driven interpreter that can help
debug things.
* Part 2: Use `value_and_span` apparatus in tx-parser/.
I break an abstraction boundary by returning a value column
`edn::ValueAndSpan` rather than just an `edn::Value`. That is, the
transaction processor shouldn't care where the `edn::Value` it is
processing arose -- even we care to track that information we should
bake it into the `Entity` type. We do this because we need to
dynamically parse the value column to support nested maps, and parsing
requires a full `edn::ValueAndSpan`. Alternately, we could cheat and
fake the spans when parsing nested maps, but that's potentially
expensive.
* Part 3: Use `value_and_span` apparatus in query-parser/.
* Part 4: Use `value_and_span` apparatus in root crate.
* Review comment: Make Span and SpanPosition Copy.
* Review comment: nits.
* Review comment: Make `or` be `or_exactly`.
I baked the eof checking directly into the parser, rather than using
the skip and eof parsers. I also took the time to restore some tests
that were mistakenly commented out.
* Review comment: Extract and use def_matches_* macros.
* Review comment: .map() as late as possible.
* Pre: Fix error in parser macros.
* Pre: Make test unwrapping more verbose.
* Pre: Make lookup refs be (lookup-ref a v) in the entity position.
This has the advantage of being explicit in all situations and
unambiguous at parse-time. This choice agrees with the Clojure
implementation but not with Datomic. Datomic treats [a v] as a lookup
ref, is ambiguous at parse-time, and is disambiguated in ways I do not
understand at transaction time. We mooted making lookup refs [[a v]]
and outlawing nested value vectors in transactions, but after
implementing that approach I decided it was better to handle lookup
refs at parse time and therefore outlawing nested value vectors is not
necessary.
* Handle lookup refs in the entity and value columns. Fixes#183.
* Pre 0a: Use a stack instead of into_iter.
* Pre 0b: Dedent.
* Pre 0c: Handle `e` after `v`.
This allows to use the original `e` while handling `v`.
* Explode value lists for :db.cardinality/many attributes. Fixes#284.
* Parse and accept map notation. Fixes#180.
* Pre: Modernize add() and retract() into one add_or_retract().
* Pre: Add is_collection and is_atom to edn::Value.
* Pre: Differentiate atoms from lookup-refs in value position.
Initially, I expected to accept arbitrary edn::Value instances in the
value position, and to differentiate in the transactor. However, the
implementation quickly became a two-stage parser, since we always
wanted to parse the resulting value position into some other known
thing using the tx-parser. To save calls into the parser and to allow
the parser to move forward with a smaller API surface, I push as much
of this parsing as possible into the initial parse.
* Pre: Modernize entities().
* Pre: Quote edn::Value::Text in Display.
* Review comment: Add and use edn::Value::into_atom.
* Review comment: Use skip(eof()) throughout.
* Review comment: VecDeque instead of Vec.
* Review comment: Part 0: Rename TempId to TempIdHandle.
* Review comment: Part 1: Differentiate internal and external tempids.
This breaks an abstraction boundary by pushing the Internal/External
split up to the Entity level in tx/ and tx-parser/. This just makes
it easier to explode Entity map notation instances into Entity
instances, taking an existing External tempid :db/id or generating a
new Internal tempid as appropriate. To do this without breaking the
abstraction boundary would require adding flexibility to the
transaction processor: we'd need to be able to turn Entity instances
into some internal enum and handle the two cases independently. It
wouldn't be too hard, but this reduces the combinatorial type
explosion.
* Pre: Drop unneeded tx0 from search results.
* Pre: Don't require a schema in some of the DB code.
The idea is to separate the transaction applying code, which is
schema-aware, from the concrete storage code, which is just concerned
with getting bits onto disk.
* Pre: Only reference Schema, not DB, in debug module.
This is part of a larger separation of the volatile PartitionMap,
which is modified every transaction, from the stable Schema, which is
infrequently modified.
* Pre: Fix indentation.
* Extract part of DB to new SchemaTypeChecking trait.
* Extract part of DB to new PartitionMapping trait.
* Pre: Don't expect :db.part/tx partition to advance when tx fails.
This fails right now, because we allocate tx IDs even when we shouldn't.
* Sketch a db interface without DB.
* Add ValueParseError; use error-chain in tx-parser.
This can be simplified when
https://github.com/Marwes/combine/issues/86 makes it to a published
release, but this unblocks us for now. This converts the `combine`
error type `ParseError<&'a [edn::Value]>` to a type with owned
`Vec<edn::Value>` collections, re-using `edn::Value::Vector` for
making them `Display`.
* Pre: Accept Borrow<Schema> instead of just &Schema in debug module.
This makes it easy to use Rc<Schema> or Arc<Schema> without inserting
&* sigils throughout the code.
* Use error-chain in query-parser.
There are a few things to point out here:
- the fine grained error types have been flattened into one crate-wide
error type; it's pretty easy to regain the granularity as needed.
- edn::ParseError is automatically lifted to
mentat_query_parser::errors::Error;
- we use mentat_parser_utils::ValueParser to maintain parsing error
information from `combine`.
* Patch up top-level.
* Review comment: Only `borrow()` once.
