JavaScript matching REs into objects

js-restructure's Issues

The library should deal with nested matches

Not as big of a deal as in Go, but would be useful for reuse.

Goals for adding this

• nested objects should work.
• nesting a restructure parser should work and invoke the parser.

JavaScript does not gaurantee the order or properties

Does it?

Maybe put them in an array? Or maybe I'm mis-understanding how the RegExp builder keeps the correct order

Consider returning empty object instead of null

Consider returning empty object instead of null so that if someone tries to access an element of a failed parse they don't hit an error trying to get a key from null.

Or have the parser throw some error if there was a "real" error and return the empty object otherwise.
