pifke.org/fastmatch

Golang code generation tool for quickly comparing an input string to a set of possible matches, which are known at compile time.

A typical use of this would be generating a "reverse enum", such as in a parser which needs to compare a string to a list of keywords and return the corresponding lexer symbol.

For more information, see the documentation.

Downloading

If you use this library in your own code, please use the canonical URL in your Go code, instead of Github:

go get pifke.org/fastmatch

Or (until I finish setting up the self-hosted repository):

# From the root of your project:
git submodule add https://github.com/dpifke/golang-fastmatch vendor/pifke.org/fastmatch

Then:

import (
        "pifke.org/fastmatch"
)

As opposed to the pifke.org URL, I make no guarantee this Github repository will exist or be up-to-date in the future.
