=head1 NAME

CQL::Parser - compiles CQL strings into parse trees of Node subtypes.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use CQL::Parser;
    my $parser = CQL::Parser->new();
    my $root = $parser->parse( $cql );

=head1 DESCRIPTION

CQL::Parser provides a mechanism to parse Common Query Language (CQL)
statements. The best description of CQL comes from the CQL homepage
at the Library of Congress L<http://www.loc.gov/z3950/agency/zing/cql/>

CQL is a formal language for representing queries to information
retrieval systems such as web indexes, bibliographic catalogs and museum
collection information. The CQL design objective is that queries be
human readable and human writable, and that the language be intuitive
while maintaining the expressiveness of more complex languages.

A CQL statement can be as simple as a single keyword, or as complicated as a set
of compoenents indicating search indexes, relations, relational modifiers,
proximity clauses and boolean logic. CQL::Parser will parse CQL statements
and return the root node for a tree of nodes which describes the CQL statement.
This data structure can then be used by a client application to analyze the
statement, and possibly turn it into a query for a local repository.

Each CQL component in the tree inherits from L<CQL::Node> and can be one
of the following: L<CQL::AndNode>, L<CQL::NotNode>, L<CQL::OrNode>,
L<CQL::ProxNode>, L<CQL::TermNode>, L<CQL::PrefixNode>. See the
documentation for those modules for their respective APIs.

Here are some examples of CQL statements:

=head1 METHODS

=head2 new()

=cut

## for convenience the lexer is located at the package level
## just need to be sure to reinitialize it in very call to parse()

sub new {
    my ( $class, $debug ) = @_;
    $CQL::DEBUG = $debug ? 1 : 0;
    return bless { }, ref($class) || $class;
}

=head2 parse()

Pass in a CQL query and you'll get back the root node for the CQL parse tree.
If the CQL is invalid an exception will be thrown.

=head1 XCQL 

CQL has an XML representation which you can generate from a CQL parse
tree. Just call the toXCQL() method on the root node you get back
from a call to parse().

=head1 ERRORS AND DIAGNOSTICS

As mentioned above, a CQL syntax error will result in an exception being 
thrown. So if you have any doubts about the CQL that you are parsing you
should wrap the call to parse() in an eval block, and check $@
afterwards to make sure everything went ok.

    eval {
        my $node = $parser->parse( $cql );
    };
    if ( $@ ) {
        print "uhoh, exception $@\n";
    }

If you'd like to see blow by blow details while your CQL is being parsed
set $CQL::DEBUG equal to 1, and you will get details on STDERR. This is
useful if the parse tree is incorrect and you want to locate where things
are going wrong. Hopefully this won't happen, but if it does please notify the
author.

=head1 THANKYOUS 

CQL::Parser is essentially a Perl port of Mike Taylor's cql-java package 
http://zing.z3950.org/cql/java/. Mike and IndexData were kind enough
to allow the author to write this port, and to make it available under
the terms of the Artistic License. Thanks Mike!

The CQL::Lexer package relies heavily on Stevan Little's excellent
String::Tokenizer. Thanks Stevan!

CQL::Parser was developed as a component of the Ockham project,
which is funded by the National Science Foundation. See http://www.ockham.org
for more information about Ockham.
