OpenSCAD Parser
===============

A PEG parser for the OpenSCAD language that can parse OpenSCAD source code and optionally generate an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) for programmatic analysis and manipulation.

Features
--------

- Full OpenSCAD language support including:
  - Module and function definitions
  - Expressions with proper operator precedence
  - Control structures (if/else, for loops, let, assert, echo)
  - List comprehensions
  - Module modifiers (``!``, ``#``, ``%``, ``*``)
  - Use and include statements
- Parse tree generation using Arpeggio PEG parser
- AST generation with comprehensive node types
- Source position tracking for all AST nodes
- AST tree can contain comment nodes (single-line and multi-line)
- AST tree uses dataclasses and can be pickled/unpickled for caching/serialization

Installation
------------

Install from PyPI::

    pip install openscad-parser

Or install from source::

    git clone https://github.com/belfryscad/openscad_parser.git
    cd openscad_parser
    pip install -e .

Basic Usage
-----------

Parsing OpenSCAD Code
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To parse OpenSCAD code, first create a parser instance, then parse your code::

    from openscad_parser import getOpenSCADParser

    # Create a parser instance
    parser = getOpenSCADParser(reduce_tree=False)

    # Parse OpenSCAD code
    code = """
    module test(x, y=10) {
        cube([x, y, 5]);
        translate([0, 0, y]) sphere(5);
    }
    """

    parse_tree = parser.parse(code)

The parser returns an Arpeggio parse tree that represents the structure of your OpenSCAD code.

Parser Options
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ``getOpenSCADParser()`` function accepts several options::

    parser = getOpenSCADParser(
        reduce_tree=False,  # Keep full parse tree (default: False)
        debug=False         # Enable debug output (default: False)
    )

- ``reduce_tree``: If True, reduces the parse tree by removing single-child nodes. Set to False when generating ASTs.
- ``debug``: If True, enables verbose debug output during parsing.

AST Generation
--------------

The parser can convert the parse tree into an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) with typed nodes for easier programmatic manipulation.

Convenience Functions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The easiest way to generate ASTs is using the convenience functions that handle parser creation automatically:

Parsing from a String
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Use ``getASTfromString()`` to parse OpenSCAD code from a string::

    from openscad_parser.ast import getASTfromString

    code = "x = 10 + 5;"
    ast = getASTfromString(code)

    # ast is a list of top-level statements
    assignment = ast[0]
    print(assignment.name.name)  # "x"
    print(assignment.expr)         # AdditionOp(left=NumberLiteral(10), right=NumberLiteral(5))

Parsing from a File
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Use ``getASTfromFile()`` to parse an OpenSCAD file. This function includes automatic caching - files are only re-parsed if their modification timestamp changes::

    from openscad_parser.ast import getASTfromFile

    # Parse a file (cached automatically)
    ast = getASTfromFile("my_model.scad")

    # Subsequent calls return cached AST if file hasn't changed
    ast2 = getASTfromFile("my_model.scad")  # Returns cached version

The cache is automatically invalidated when the file is modified, ensuring you always get up-to-date results.

Parsing Library Files
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Use ``getASTfromLibraryFile()`` to find and parse library files using OpenSCAD's search path rules. This is useful for resolving ``use`` and ``include`` statements::

    from openscad_parser.ast import getASTfromLibraryFile

    # From a file that includes a library
    # Searches: current file directory, OPENSCADPATH, platform defaults
    # Returns: (AST, absolute_path) tuple
    ast, path = getASTfromLibraryFile("/path/to/main.scad", "utils/math.scad")

    # Or without current file context
    ast, path = getASTfromLibraryFile("", "MCAD/boxes.scad")

The function searches for library files in this order:

1. Directory of the current file (if provided)
2. Directories in the ``OPENSCADPATH`` environment variable
3. Platform-specific default library directories:
   - Windows: ``~/Documents/OpenSCAD/libraries``
   - macOS: ``~/Documents/OpenSCAD/libraries``
   - Linux: ``~/.local/share/OpenSCAD/libraries``

Advanced AST Generation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For more control, you can use ``parse_ast()`` directly with a custom parser instance::

    from openscad_parser import getOpenSCADParser
    from openscad_parser.ast import parse_ast

    # Create a parser instance
    parser = getOpenSCADParser(reduce_tree=False)

    # Parse and generate AST
    code = "x = 10 + 5;"
    ast = parse_ast(parser, code)

    # ast is a list of top-level statements
    assignment = ast[0]
    print(assignment.name.name)  # "x"
    print(assignment.expr)       # AdditionOp(left=NumberLiteral(10), right=NumberLiteral(5))

The ``parse_ast()`` function is the lower-level API for AST generation. It takes:

- ``parser``: An Arpeggio parser instance (from ``getOpenSCADParser()``)
- ``code``: The OpenSCAD code string to parse
- ``file``: Optional file path for source location tracking

Working with AST Nodes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All AST nodes inherit from ``ASTNode`` and have a ``position`` attribute for source location tracking::

    from openscad_parser.ast import (
        getASTfromString, Assignment, Identifier, NumberLiteral, AdditionOp
    )

    code = "result = 10 + 20;"
    ast = getASTfromString(code)
    assignment = ast[0]

    # Check node types
    assert isinstance(assignment, Assignment)
    assert isinstance(assignment.name, Identifier)
    assert isinstance(assignment.expr, AdditionOp)

    # Access node properties
    print(assignment.name.name)           # "result"
    print(assignment.expr.left.val)      # 10
    print(assignment.expr.right.val)      # 20

    # Access source position
    print(assignment.position.line)      # Line number (1-indexed)
    print(assignment.position.char)      # Column number (1-indexed)

Examples
--------

Parsing a Simple Assignment
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

::

    from openscad_parser import getOpenSCADParser
    from openscad_parser.ast import parse_ast, Assignment, Identifier

    parser = getOpenSCADParser(reduce_tree=False)
    code = "x = 42;"
    ast = parse_ast(parser, code)

    assignment = ast[0]
    assert isinstance(assignment, Assignment)
    assert assignment.name.name == "x"
    assert assignment.expr.val == 42

Parsing a Module Definition
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From a file::

    from openscad_parser.ast import getASTfromFile, ModuleDeclaration, ModularCall

    ast = getASTfromFile("box.scad")
    module = ast[0]

    assert isinstance(module, ModuleDeclaration)
    assert module.name.name == "box"
    assert len(module.parameters) == 1
    assert len(module.children) == 1
    assert isinstance(module.children[0], ModularCall)
    assert module.children[0].name.name == "cube"

Or from a string::

    from openscad_parser.ast import getASTfromString, ModuleDeclaration, ModularCall

    code = """
    module box(size) {
        cube(size);
    }
    """

    ast = getASTfromString(code)
    module = ast[0]

    assert isinstance(module, ModuleDeclaration)
    assert module.name.name == "box"
    assert len(module.parameters) == 1
    assert len(module.children) == 1
    assert isinstance(module.children[0], ModularCall)
    assert module.children[0].name.name == "cube"

        getASTfromString, Assignment, AdditionOp, MultiplicationOp, NumberLiteral
    )

    code = "result = (10 + 5) * 2;"
    ast = getASTfromString(code)

    assignment = ast[0]
    # The expression tree preserves operator precedence
    mult_op = assignment.expr
    assert isinstance(mult_op, MultiplicationOp)
    assert isinstance(mult_op.left, AdditionOp)
    assert mult_op.left.left.val == 10
    assert mult_op.left.right.val == 5
    assert mult_op.right.val == 2

Parsing Function Calls
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

::

    from openscad_parser.ast import (
        getASTfromString, PrimaryCall, PositionalArgument, NamedArgument
    )

    code = "x = foo(1, b=2);"
    ast = getASTfromString(code)

    assignment = ast[0]
    call = assignment.expr
    assert isinstance(call, PrimaryCall)
    assert call.left.name == "foo"
    assert len(call.arguments) == 2
    assert isinstance(call.arguments[0], PositionalArgument)
    assert isinstance(call.arguments[1], NamedArgument)
    assert call.arguments[1].name.name == "b"

Parsing Library Files
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

::

    from openscad_parser.ast import getASTfromLibraryFile, ModuleDeclaration

    # Parse a library file using OpenSCAD's search path
    # Searches: current file dir, OPENSCADPATH, platform defaults
    # Returns: (AST, absolute_path) tuple
    ast, path = getASTfromLibraryFile("/path/to/main.scad", "utils/math.scad")

AST Node Classes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All AST node classes are located in ``openscad_parser.ast``. Each node class:

- Inherits from ``ASTNode`` (or a subclass like ``Expression``)
- Has a ``position`` attribute of type ``Position`` for source location
- Implements ``__str__()`` for string representation
- Is a dataclass with typed fields

Import commonly used classes::

    from openscad_parser.ast import (
        # Base classes
        ASTNode, Expression, Primary,
        
        # Literals
        Identifier, StringLiteral, NumberLiteral, BooleanLiteral,
        
        # Operators
        AdditionOp, SubtractionOp, MultiplicationOp, DivisionOp,
        LogicalAndOp, LogicalOrOp, EqualityOp, InequalityOp,
        
        # Expressions
        PrimaryCall, PrimaryIndex, PrimaryMember,
        LetOp, EchoOp, AssertOp, TernaryOp,
        
        # Modules
        ModuleDeclaration, ModularCall, ModularFor,
        
        # Functions
        FunctionDeclaration,
        
        # Statements
        Assignment, UseStatement, IncludeStatement,
        PositionalArgument, NamedArgument, ParameterDeclaration
    )

Source Position Tracking
-------------------------

All AST nodes include source position information::

    from openscad_parser.ast import getASTfromFile, Position

    ast = getASTfromFile("example.scad")
    assignment = ast[0]

    position = assignment.position
    print(position.file)      # "example.scad"
    print(position.line)      # 1 (1-indexed)
    print(position.char)      # 1 (1-indexed, column number)
    print(position.position)  # 0 (0-indexed character position)

The ``Position`` class provides lazy evaluation of line/column numbers from character positions.

Error Handling
--------------

The parser will raise ``SyntaxError`` exceptions for invalid OpenSCAD syntax::

    from openscad_parser.ast import getASTfromString

    try:
        code = "x = ;"  # Invalid syntax
        ast = getASTfromString(code)
    except SyntaxError as e:
        print(f"Parse error: {e}")

File operations will raise ``FileNotFoundError`` for missing files::

    from openscad_parser.ast import getASTfromFile, getASTfromLibraryFile

    try:
        ast = getASTfromFile("nonexistent.scad")
    except FileNotFoundError as e:
        print(f"File not found: {e}")

    try:
        ast, path = getASTfromLibraryFile("main.scad", "missing_lib.scad")
    except FileNotFoundError as e:
        print(f"Library file not found: {e}")

Advanced Usage
--------------

File Caching
~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ``getASTfromFile()`` function automatically caches parsed ASTs in memory::

    from openscad_parser.ast import getASTfromFile

    # First call parses and caches
    ast1 = getASTfromFile("model.scad")

    # Second call returns cached AST (same object)
    ast2 = getASTfromFile("model.scad")
    assert ast1 is ast2  # True - same cached object

    # After file modification, cache is invalidated and file is re-parsed
    # (modify model.scad here)
    ast3 = getASTfromFile("model.scad")
    assert ast1 is not ast3  # True - new parse after modification

Cache entries are automatically invalidated when a file's modification timestamp changes. To manually clear the cache::

    from openscad_parser.ast import clear_ast_cache

    clear_ast_cache()  # Clear all cached ASTs

Reusing Parser Instances
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Parser instances can be reused for parsing multiple code snippets::

    parser = getOpenSCADParser(reduce_tree=False)

    # Parse multiple files
    ast1 = parse_ast(parser, code1, file="file1.scad")
    ast2 = parse_ast(parser, code2, file="file2.scad")

Note: For some use cases (like testing), you may need to create fresh parser instances to avoid memoization issues.

Traversing the AST
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The AST is a tree structure that can be traversed recursively::

    def visit_node(node):
        """Recursively visit AST nodes."""
        if isinstance(node, Assignment):
            print(f"Assignment: {node.name.name}")
            visit_node(node.expr)
        elif isinstance(node, AdditionOp):
            print("Addition operation")
            visit_node(node.left)
            visit_node(node.right)
        elif isinstance(node, NumberLiteral):
            print(f"Number: {node.val}")
        # ... handle other node types

    from openscad_parser.ast import getASTfromString
    
    code = "x = 10; y = 20;"
    ast = getASTfromString(code)
    for node in ast:
        visit_node(node)
