(** Auxiliary functions used by all lexers. *)

type lexing_context = Law | Raw | Code | Directive | Directive_args

val context : lexing_context ref
(** Reference, used by the lexer as the mutable state to distinguish whether it
    is lexing code or law. *)

val code_buffer : Buffer.t
(** Buffer that accumulates the string representation of the body of code being
    lexed. This string representation is used in the literate programming
    backends to faithfully capture the spacing pattern of the original program *)

val update_acc : Sedlexing.lexbuf -> unit
(** Updates {!val:code_buffer} with the current lexeme *)

val raise_lexer_error : Catala_utils.Pos.t -> string -> 'a
(** Error-generating helper *)

val token_list_language_agnostic : (string * Tokens.token) list
(** Associative list matching each punctuation string part of the Catala syntax
    with its {!Surface.Parser} token. Same for all the input languages (English,
    French, etc.) *)

val calc_precedence : string -> int
(** Calculates the precedence according a matched regex of the form : '[#]+' *)

val get_law_heading : Sedlexing.lexbuf -> Tokens.token
(** Gets the [LAW_HEADING] token from the current [lexbuf] *)

(** Simplified tokens for dependency extraction *)
type line_token =
  | LINE_TEST of string (* ```catala-test { id = xx } *)
  | LINE_INLINE_TEST (* ```catala-test-inline *)
  | LINE_BLOCK_END (* ``` *)
  | LINE_INCLUDE of string (* > Include foo.catala_en *)
  | LINE_MODULE_DEF of string * bool (* > Module Xxx [external] *)
  | LINE_MODULE_USE of string (* > Using Xxx [as Yyy] *)
  | LINE_ANY (* anything else *)

module type LocalisedLexer = sig
  val token_list : (string * Tokens.token) list
  (** Same as {!val:Surface.Lexer_common.token_list_language_agnostic}, but with
      tokens whose string varies with the input language. *)

  val lex_builtin : string -> Ast.builtin_expression option
  (** Simple lexer for builtins *)

  val lex_code : Sedlexing.lexbuf -> Tokens.token
  (** Main lexing function used in a code block *)

  val lex_law : Sedlexing.lexbuf -> Tokens.token
  (** Main lexing function used outside code blocks *)

  val lexer : Sedlexing.lexbuf -> Tokens.token
  (** Entry point of the lexer, distributes to {!val:lex_code} or {!val:lex_law}
      depending of the current {!val:Surface.Lexer_common.context}. *)

  val lex_line : Sedlexing.lexbuf -> (string * line_token) option
  (** Low-level lexer intended for dependency extraction. The whole line
      (including ["\n"] is always returned together with the token. [None] for
      EOF. *)
