NDL Parsing Implementation Guide

Overview

Purpose: Guide for implementing NDL parsers Status: DRAFT - Awaiting detailed specification from ndl-reference-builder agent Audience: Developers building NDL-compatible engines

Placeholder Structure

Parser Architecture

NDL Text → Lexer → Tokens → Parser → AST → Validator → Processed NDL

Expected Content

Parser Components:

  • Lexical analysis (tokenization)
  • Syntax parsing (AST construction)
  • Semantic validation
  • Error handling and recovery
  • Optimization strategies

Code Examples (To be added):

class NDLParser:
    def parse(self, ndl_text):
        # Parse NDL markup into structured data
        pass

Implementation Notes

This is a placeholder stub. Full guide needs:

  • Parser design patterns
  • ReallmCraft parser architecture
  • Performance optimization
  • Error recovery strategies
  • Testing approaches

Draft Status

This file is a stub placeholder. Run the ndl-reference-builder agent to extract complete specification from Discord transcripts and veritasr’s parser implementation.
