Does anyone out there have code for a parser of Jade source? more correctly a parser for a schema file?

I did once, probably still have somewhere. The main problem is that the parser needs to be Jade version aware as over the various releases the structure of the schema file changed a bit. Lack of time ment that I did not update the parser, also it is still in the back of my mind ...

A presume you mean a parser written in Jade!?

I have a parser for Jade 4.??, although that's probably no good.

Our automatic upgrading software does some very minor parsing of the ..scm files before they are imported (to endure the correct schema hierachy is kept).

Do you want to actually parse the Jade code in the schema file or just the structure of the schema file itself?

Mainly im looking to identify the schema file structure. Don't care about the details of a method, as long as I can get the code as text block.

Its going in the too hard basket for now I think.

Hi Carl,
The jade documents (particularly the pdfs) give quite a bit of information regarding the .scm file structure.

You should be able to acheive what you want by reading the file and looking for the special tags inside it, like:

typeHeaders
membershipDefinitions
typeDefinitions
inverseDefinitions
jadeMethodSources

etc.
