Function nom::multi::length_count

source ·
pub fn length_count<I, O, N, E, F, G>(
    f: F,
    g: G
) -> impl FnMut(I) -> IResult<I, Vec<O>, E>
where I: Clone, N: ToUsize, F: Parser<I, N, E>, G: Parser<I, O, E>, E: ParseError<I>,
Expand description

Gets a number from the first parser, then applies the second parser that many times.

§Arguments

  • f The parser to apply to obtain the count.
  • g The parser to apply repeatedly.

use nom::combinator::map;

  }), tag("abc"))(s)
}
