UnstrctrdSourceUnstrctrd (Unstructured) is a lexer/parser according RFC822. It accepts any input which respects ABNF described by RFC5322 (including obsolete form). To contextualize the purpose, email header, a part of DEB format, or HTTP 1.1 header respect, at least, a form, the unstructured form which allows to split a value with a folding-whitespace token.
This token permits to limit any values to 80 characters per line:
To: Romain Calascibetta\r\n
<romain@calascibetta.org>Then, others forms like email address or subject should, at least, be a subset of this form. The goal of this library is to delay complexity of this form to a little and basic library.
Unstrctrd handles UTF-8 as well (RFC6532). Any input should always terminate by CRLF.
of_string raw tries to parse raw and extract the unstructured form. raw should, at least, terminate by CRLF.
of_list lst tries to coerce lst to t. It verifies that lst can not produce CRLF terminating token (eg. [`CR; `LF]).
without_comments t tries to delete any comment of t. A comment is a part which begins with '(' and ends with ')'. If we find a non-associated parenthesis, we return an error.
val split_on :
on:[ `WSP | `FWS | `Uchar of Uchar.t | `Char of char | `LF | `CR ] ->
t ->
(t * t) optionsplit_on ~on t is either the pair (t0, t1) of the two (possibly empty) subparts of t that are delimited by the first match of on or None if on can't be matched in t.
The invariant t0 ^ sep ^ t1 = t holds.
