Parser.Many

Repeats a parser until failure and returns every value.

Package version

Category

Member of
Parser

Import

import { Parser } from "@typed/router/Parser";

Access Parser.Many through the imported Parser export. Its declaration below describes the member.

Signatures

interface Many<P extends Any> extends Parser<unknown> {
    readonly return: InputOf<this> extends infer Input extends string ? ManyInternal<P, Input> : never;
}

Why

Repetition preserves the first unconsumed suffix and rejects parsers that make no progress.

Ownership and lifetime

TypeScript instantiates Many while parsing a string-literal input; partial results and unconsumed text exist only in the resulting type.

Property: return

Computes this type lambda’s parse result for its current input.

Property: return: Why

The local type-function protocol evaluates each parser combinator through this member without a parallel runtime object.

Property: return: Ownership and lifetime

TypeScript evaluates Many.return when the surrounding parser is applied; the associated result is erased and retains no input at runtime.
