Hi ,

This is my grammar.




grammar org.xtext.example.mydsl.EinDsl with org.eclipse.xtext.common.Terminals

generate einDsl "http://www.xtext.org/example/mydsl/EinDsl"


Model:
	greetings=Query;

Query:
	(key=QTypekeyWord)?  (measure=MeasureList) groupBy=GroupBy ;


QTypekeyWord:
	qKeyword='plot'
;


MeasureList : names+=Measure ("and" names+=Measure)*;

Measure:ID+;

Dimension:
	dimensions+=ID+
;

DimensionValue:
	value=ID+
;


TimeGroupList:
timeGroupList+= TimeGroup ("by" timeGroups+=TimeGroup)*
;

DimensionGroupList:
dimensionGroups+= Dimension ("by" dimensionGroups+=Dimension)*
;

GroupBy:
	(("by" dimGroups=DimensionGroupList) ?& ("by" timeGroups=TimeGroupList))
;


TimeGroup:

	timeGroup= 'month'|'year'|'quarter'|'day'
;





I wish to understand the rule priority for Two Categories.

Two Category

- In group by I can have
- Time group
- Dimension group
- These categories can be present in any order
- Example :year and month are from Time Group Category , country and region are from dimension category.
- plot profit by year by country
- plot profit by country by year
- plot profit by year by month
- plot profit by country by region
- In the grammar I have dimension defined as ID while TimeGroup defined with specific words.
- When I fire content assist
- It works as expected and suggests me correctly for
- "plot profit by m " -->month
- "plot profit by year by m "--> month
- "plot profit by country by y " -->year
- While Content assist works as expected ,The test cases fails to identify the correct type
- This first test case
- "plot profit by country by month" is successful to identify country as category and month as time group
- While in another test case "plot profit by month" fails to group "month" as time group ,this is categorized as dimension
- I understand that dimension is ID type and can be matched to "month"
- How can I prioritise the rule matching for "month" for TimeGroup
- At the same time how does first test pass and match corretly. and second one fails while in all the cases I get correct content assist.

Please suggest.

hi,

neither your grammar nor your observations make sense to me

if you generate the grammar you get hints that your grammar is ambigous.
this is bad.

then your grammar does not allow to mix times and dimensions
(once it is a kind of list it stays in that kind)

then you have to make sure that the priorities of assignments and or are handled correct

Model:
	greetings=Query;

Query:
	(key=QTypekeyWord)?  (measure=MeasureList) groupBy=GroupList ;


QTypekeyWord:
	qKeyword='plot'
;


MeasureList : names+=Measure ("and" names+=Measure)*;

Measure:ID+;

Dimension:
	dimensions+=ID+
;

GroupList:
	"by" (timeGroupList+=TimeGroup|dimensionGroups+= Dimension) ("by" (timeGroups+=TimeGroup|dimensionGroups+= Dimension))*
;


TimeGroup:

	timeGroup=('month'|'year'|'quarter'|'day')
;

I am very new to this. Could you direct me to a good resource or documentation about writing in a better way. I did not get any hint when I did mvn clean install. Do I need to activate.?

p.s.

i dont know if there is a documentation that handles that in details besides

https://www.eclipse.org/Xtext/documentation/301_grammarlanguage.html

and lorenzo bettinis book "Implementing Domain-Specific Languages with Xtext and Xtend " which targets Xtext <= 2.9 and is currently updated

Thank you for your help on this Smile Smile . How can I get over this warning message. I think ,text has multiple matching with ID and TimeGroup names .!

You should further simplify your grammar, as there are a lot of unnecessary AST nodes created.
Here is how I would write it:

Query:
	key?='plot'? names+=ID ("and" names+=ID)* ('by' groupBy+=TimeOrDimension)+;

TimeOrDimension:
   ID|'month'|'year'|'quarter'|'day'
;


This way, not only the grammar but also the resulting AST will be smaller and simpler.

I intend to keep the Dimension separate as I have to trigger something if the only Dimension rule matches. What do you suggest.

Yes , I looked at it . Thanks for your suggestion . I intend to perform some logic for Dimension Rule. so in this case even if I type "month" that logic will be executed. I want it to be separate for Dimension and TimeGroup . Thinking how can I achieve this

plot profit by product

plot profit by month

for my application ,product and month should belong to different categories. product should be ID type while month belongs to TimgGroup category with some other specific words like "day","quarter" ,etc.

For rule matching , if there is TimeGroup category it should be given priority over matching an ID.

Query:
	key?='plot'? names+=ID ("and" names+=ID)* ('by' groupBy+=TimeOrDimension)+;

TimeOrDimension:
   ID|'month'|'year'|'quarter'|'day';



Ok I wish to understand few points.
* Here TimeorDimension is combining Dimension and Time into one. For an input say "by country" i wish to trigger only Dimension and not Time.
* When the input is "by month" How is it prioritized to match just the Time Rule and not Dimension

In your initial grammar there was no distinction between the values from the parsing perspective it would only be stored in two different lists.
As an effect you will loose the ordering information. If you want to keep having two different lists, than just do it like you did before.
e.g.
Query:
	key?='plot'? names+=ID ("and" names+=ID)* ('by' (time+=Time | dimension+=ID))+;

Time:
   'month'|'year'|'quarter'|'day';

Ok ThankYou Smile . In this case dimension is of type ID. The reason I kept it separate because in next iteration Dimension could also occur at a different place that mentioned

For example

profit by country for apac as region. Here country and region are dimensions
.So I have to have to know , whether the dimension comes under group by as a condition.

Could you suggest if my approach is ok.

Hello,
I have used the example you have sent.

My first question is towards resolving to resolving ambiguity issue. How do I resolve it. I know this is because words like "month" etc can also come under ID (which is a different type).

So , In summary .

I have Dimension ID type and a another type Time which is text of "month" ,"day" ,"year".

My question is :

Is it possible to control the rule priority such that the text with content "month" only triggers the Time Rule and not the Dimension Type(which is ID type)

This is my modified grammar (including your changes). I wish to understand the ambiguity issue. This could be a simple thing(by my addition) . But I wish to understand why?



grammar org.xtext.example.mydsl.EinDsl with org.eclipse.xtext.common.Terminals

generate einDsl "http://www.xtext.org/example/mydsl/EinDsl"


Model:
	greetings=Query;

Query:
	(key=QTypekeyWord)? (aggregation=Aggregation)? (measure=MeasureList) ((groupBy=GroupList)? &(condition=Condtition)? &(range=Transition)?) ;


QTypekeyWord:
	qKeyword='plot'
;

Aggregation:
	agg=('average'|'number of'|'total')
;

Condtition:
	con+='for' dimVal=DimensionValue 'as' dim=Dimension ('and' dimValue=DimensionValue 'as' dimen=Dimension)*
;

MeasureList : names+=Measure ("and" names+=Measure)*;

Measure:ID+;


Dimension:
	dimensions+=ID+
;

DimensionValue:
	value=ID+
;

GroupList:
	"by" (timeGroupList+=TimeGroup|dimensionGroups+= Dimension) ("by" (timeGroups+=TimeGroup|dimensionGroups+= Dimension))*
;

Transition:

	'from' dateStart=Date 'to' dateEnd=Date
;

TimeGroup:

	timeGroup=('month'|'year'|'quarter'|'day'|'week')
;
Date:
	d=Day m=Month y=Year ;


Day : INT ;
Month : 'Jan'|'Feb'|'Mar'|'Apr' ;
Year : INT ;

for me this looks like a bug in xtext. respectivlely how xtext handles unordered groups does not fit your grammar.
you can workaround this like

GroupList:
	(=> "by" (timeGroups+=TimeGroup|dimensionGroups+=Dimension))+
;


can you please file a ticket anyway

I have two questions regarding this.

Measure:ID+;
I wish to modify this to accept
*Special Characters .For example "Profit #"
*Space after last word .For example "Profit margin "

Please suggest how can I modify the definition of ID or should I create a new type?

terminal WS : (' '|'\t'|'\r'|'\n')+;
Measure:ID WS(ID WS)+;

I tried this. But ,The Measure rule does not trigger and match the last space in the text text on "plot abc "

i dont understand why you want to model the ws explicitely. you need to type a ws anyway to separate the tokens
if you want to unhide WS you have to model that

Rule hidden(/* list of hidden tokens, do not include ws here*/) : ...

This is because for both
"plot profit" and "plot profit " The measure is "profit" while for the second option it should be "profit " (profit with a space). I wish to capture the last space as well.
