REBOL [ File: %rebol-dom.r Date: 05-01-2021 Title: "Dialect Object Model" Emai: %inetw3--dm--gmail--com author: daniel murrill version: 1.0 Purpose: { Use a exstensible Rebol Markup function to parse DSL's that will return an easy to follow tagged key value Dialect Object Model that allow different DSL's, programming languages to work with or together through a Central Processing interpreter. Yes Rebol/Core. A demo example of a HTML DSL is parsed by the Dialect Object Model to return valid HTML then processed by the %Mdlparser wich in return creates UI VID code. All scripting takes place in the DOM and then passed as VID code to Rebol/View. So instead of writing parse rules for DSL's, you work with your DSL as a DOM and immediatley began to write code for it as if it's a programming language.} ] library: [ author: daniel murrill level: 'intermediate platform: 'all type: [Dialects Markup] domain: [html vid css json js array] tested-under: 'windows support: none license: none see-also: %Mdlparser.r version: 1.0 ] ;Copy&Paste... in Rebol 2 my-dialect: [ rebol-DOM: [{DSL-type="html/block" type="text/html"}] lua-tbl = {[first] = "fred", [last] = "cougar"} #this-issue [{color: "purple" bgcolor: "orange"}] var anObj = {`100: 'a', `2: 'b', `7: 'c', }; body: [{background-color="blue" text "white"} ] p: [ {"color":"#0000ff", "bgcolor":"yellow", "width" : "399", "height" : "100" "font-styles": "big" } This is an example of an Dialect Oject Model b: [ {id="my-p1" color = "Chocolate" bgcolor = "yellow"} that can be written to look like json' html' javascript arrays' css' i: [ {color = "green"} VID' or plain old rebol ] ] if you like. ] hr: [{color="red" bgcolor="yellow"}] div: [ {width="399" bgcolor="orange"} b: [ {color: "purple" bgcolor: "orange"} Maybe it would be easier to write i: [ {id="my-p1" color: "green"} MakeDoc.r code but the purpose of this rebol DOM is'] ] ] p: [ {width "399" height= 200 style="color: red; bgcolor: brown; border: 2x2;" } b: [ {color="red"} to read or load as many well known dialects of coding styles as possible and write all of it as a single or seperate legible rebol series that's quickly manipulated' transcoded as html' and viewed as a VID. ] ] ] document.getnodename: func [request][document. getnodename request] document.: func [request-as][ DOM: head DOM use*=*to-set-values node-name: check node-element any [ all [not empty? data-node equal? block! type? data-node] insert data-node: [] request-as] any [equal? tag! type? node-element: data-node/1 node-element: build-tag to-block strip-obj-chars-from data-node/1 none] either count >= 1 [me: parse slf* ":" var replace node-element join node-name " " join any [ attempt [me/1] slf*] " "] [var node-element] .style: :array-obj! attempt [replace node-element first parse node-element " :" any [me/3 me/2 replace me/1 form count ""]] return node-element count: 0 ] .return-tag-node: func [node-name][DOM: head DOM node: either equal? word! type? node-name [ either any [attempt [empty? node-element] equal? none node-element] [select node-list form node-name][node-name]][node-name] any [ all [equal? node none print rejoin [{node-name: (} node-name ") not in node-list."]] equal? tag! type? node-element: node attempt [node-element: data-node: build-tag to-block strip-obj-chars-from form node none] set 'node-element node]node-name: check node-element return probe node-element ] .style: [] equal?: := DOM: DSL: html: window: end-tag: "" data-node: parent-node: slf*: node: none .body: .hr: .p: .b: .i: .tr: .ul: .li: .area: .table: .td: .button: .input: .div: .font: .span: count: 0 node-obj: node-element: node-name: *name: use-methods: attr-name: attr-value: none check: func [select-this][return pick parse trim strip-chars-from form select-this none " " 1] reappend: func [with this-data][append with load mold rejoin this-data] elemt-chars: none strip-chars-from: func [node-name elemt-chars][ foreach char elemt-chars: any [reduce elemt-chars ["<" ">" "{" "}" "(" ")" {"} "/" "."
