Contraction aware parsing system for domain-specific languages
Aspects of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for parsing a domain-specific language (DSL) statement. The method includes one or more processors accessing a DSL statement that includes contracted phrases. The method further includes one or more processors identifying one or more contracted phrases in the DSL statement utilizing an annotated domain vocabulary for a DSL associated with the DSL statement and grammar rules for the DSL. The method further includes one or more processors determining expanded phrases corresponding to the identified one or more contracted phrases based on the annotated domain vocabulary and the grammar rules. The method further includes one or more processors creating an expanded abstract syntax tree (AST) that is representative of the DSL statement with the determined expanded phrases replacing the identified one or more contracted phrases.

creating, by one or more processors, an expanded abstract syntax tree (AST) that is representative of the DSL statement with the determined expanded phrases replacing the identified one or more contracted phrases;
identifying, by one or more processors, operators in the DSL statement that are associated with annotations in the annotated domain vocabulary; and
determining, by one or more processors, extensions to add to the annotated domain vocabulary based on the identified operators.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying one or more contracted phrases in the DSL statement utilizing the annotated domain vocabulary for the DSL associated with the DSL statement comprises:
creating, by one or more processors, an AST that is representative of the DSL statement that includes contracted phrases; and
identifying, by one or more processors, one or more contracted phrases in the created AST utilizing the annotated domain vocabulary for the DSL.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the created AST includes semantic annotations that correspond to nodes in the created AST that include a contracted phrase.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining, by one or more processors, whether the expanded AST includes any contracted phrases; and
responsive to determining that the expanded AST does include contracted phrases, identifying, by one or more processors, one or more contracted phrases in the expanded AST utilizing the annotated domain vocabulary for the DSL.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining expanded phrases corresponding to the identified one or more contracted phrases based on the annotated domain vocabulary, further comprises:
expanding, by one or more processors, the one or more identified contracted phrases according to the domain vocabulary for the DSL.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining, by one or more processors, one or more rules to add to grammar rules for the DSL based on the determined extensions to add to the annotated domain vocabulary.
7. A computer program product for parsing a domain-specific language (DSL) statement, the computer program product comprising:
one or more computer readable storage media and program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media, the program instructions comprising:
program instructions to identify one or more contracted phrases in the DSL statement utilizing an annotated domain vocabulary for a DSL associated with the DSL statement;
program instructions to determine expanded phrases corresponding to the identified one or more contracted phrases based on the annotated domain vocabulary;
program instructions to create an expanded abstract syntax tree (AST) that is representative of the DSL statement with the determined expanded phrases replacing the identified one or more contracted phrases;
program instructions to identify operators in the DSL statement that are associated with annotations in the annotated domain vocabulary; and
program instructions to determine extensions to add to the annotated domain vocabulary based on the identified operators.
8. The computer program product of claim 7 , wherein the program instructions to identify one or more contracted phrases in the DSL statement utilizing the annotated domain vocabulary for the DSL associated with the DSL statement comprise program instructions to:
create an AST that is representative of the DSL statement that includes contracted phrases; and
identify one or more contracted phrases in the created AST utilizing the annotated domain vocabulary for the DSL.
9. The computer program product of claim 8 , wherein the created AST includes semantic annotations that correspond to nodes in the created AST that include a contracted phrase.
10. The computer program product of claim 7 , further comprising program instructions, stored on the one or more computer readable storage media, to:
determine whether the expanded AST includes any contracted phrases; and
responsive to determining that the expanded AST does include contracted phrases, identify one or more contracted phrases in the expanded AST utilizing the annotated domain vocabulary for the DSL.
11. The computer program product of claim 7 , wherein the program instructions to determine expanded phrases corresponding to the identified one or more contracted phrases based on the annotated domain vocabulary, further comprise program instructions to:
expand the one or more identified contracted phrases according to the domain vocabulary for the DSL.
12. The computer program product of claim 7 , further comprising program instructions, stored on the one or more computer readable storage media, to:
determine one or more rules to add to grammar rules for the DSL based on the determined extensions to add to the annotated domain vocabulary.
13. A computer system parsing a domain-specific language (DSL) statement, the computer system comprising:
one or more computer processors;
one or more computer readable storage media; and
program instructions stored on the computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more processors, the program instructions comprising:
program instructions to identify one or more contracted phrases in the DSL statement utilizing an annotated domain vocabulary for a DSL associated with the DSL statement;
program instructions to determine expanded phrases corresponding to the identified one or more contracted phrases based on the annotated domain vocabulary;
program instructions to create an expanded abstract syntax tree (AST) that is representative of the DSL statement with the determined expanded phrases replacing the identified one or more contracted phrases;
program instructions to identify operators in the DSL statement that are associated with annotations in the annotated domain vocabulary; and
program instructions to determine extensions to add to the annotated domain vocabulary based on the identified operators.
14. The computer system of claim 13 , wherein the program instructions to identify one or more contracted phrases in the DSL statement utilizing the annotated domain vocabulary for the DSL associated with the DSL statement comprise program instructions to:
create an AST that is representative of the DSL statement that includes contracted phrases; and
identify one or more contracted phrases in the created AST utilizing the annotated domain vocabulary for the DSL and.
15. The computer system of claim 13 , further comprising program instructions, stored on the computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more processors, to:
determine whether the expanded AST includes any contracted phrases; and
responsive to determining that the expanded AST does include contracted phrases, identify one or more contracted phrases in the expanded AST utilizing the annotated domain vocabulary for the DSL.
