CommonMark parser for Clojure/Script

marchio

CommonMark parser for Clojure/Script.

TODO

Rationale

TODO add links to Monadic Parsing and Parsing with Derivatives papers.

Instaparse is very powerful and well done, but due to its tradeoffs it starts having issues around 20k-200k chars (one of the test files is 10M, Commonmark C implementation eats it in couple of seconds).

So, one alternative would be to implement a small parser combinators library (for fun) or use one of the following:

• https://github.com/youngnh/parsatron
• https://github.com/blancas/kern
• https://github.com/van-clj/zetta-parser

Kern looks best.

Usage

TODO

Roadmap

• Pass all the spec test cases
• Handle pathological inputs: markdown-it test suite
• ClojureScript port
