Rust Dublin 243 Roberto Gambuzzi

Join Ferris, Roberto Gambuzzi and fellow Rustaceans for a double billing of Rust talks.

An intro to \`nom\`, parsing made easy for Rustaceans

In this talk we will give you a pragmatic introduction to \`nom\` , a famous Rust parser combinator crate, which, in other words, is a tool that makes it easy to create parsers even for more advanced use cases.

We will start by showcasing common suboptimal ways to do parsing including string splitting and using regexes. Then we will introduce nom and the main concepts it builds on, including its most commonly used functions. Finally, we will present several examples, from a few simple ones to building an entire parser for RESP, the Redis Serialization Protocol. If we do a good job, you'll probably forget about regex :)
