A TL (Type Language) parser. Uses pegjs.
$ npm install ti-elconst { parse, tldoc } = require('ti-el')
const ast = parse('req_pq#60469778 nonce:int128 = ResPQ;')
console.dir(ast, { depth: null })You can import Flow or TypeScript types for the AST:
import type { TLProgram, CombinatorDeclaration /* ... */ } from 'tl-parser/ast'The tldoc function can parse documentation comments like the following, which
are used in TDLib:
//@class MaskPoint @description Part of the face, relative to which a mask should be placed
//@description A mask should be placed relatively to the mouth
maskPointMouth = MaskPoint;
//@description A mask should be placed relatively to the chin
maskPointChin = MaskPoint;
//@description Position on a photo where a mask should be placed @point Part of the face, relative to which the mask should be placed
//@x_shift Shift by X-axis measured in widths of the mask scaled to the face size, from left to right. (For example, -1.0 will place the mask just to the left of the default mask position)
//@y_shift Shift by Y-axis measured in heights of the mask scaled to the face size, from top to bottom. (For example, 1.0 will place the mask just below the default mask position)
//@scale Mask scaling coefficient. (For example, 2.0 means a doubled size)
maskPosition point:MaskPoint x_shift:double y_shift:double scale:double = MaskPosition;This package also provides a ti-el console utility.

tl-parser on npm. This library is meant to be replaced by
camlproto/tl
(written in OCaml) in the future, but that one cannot parse tldoc yet.
See this for the old structure of this repository.
For transforming TDLib's td_api.tl into TypeScript and Flow typings using
tldoc, see tdlib-types in the tdl repository.
There's also tl-transform, but it's currently not used anywhere and deprecated.
The project is not actively maintained.
