Topic: Combining macros as functions
Andrés Goens (Jul 19 2022 at 08:28):
Say I wanted to combine two macros, e.g. because they represent two different syntax extensions and I want to call them recursively. I tried naming the functions and building one that combines them, but that apparently doesn't work. Here's an MWE:
import Lean
declare_syntax_cat foo
declare_syntax_cat bar
syntax (name := foo1) ident : foo
syntax (name := foo2) num : foo
syntax foo,* : bar
@[macro foo1]
def expandFoo1 : Lean.Macro
| `(foo| $x:ident) => `($(Lean.quote x.getId.toString))
| _ => Lean.Macro.throwUnsupported
@[macro foo2]
def expandFoo2 : Lean.Macro
| `(foo| $x:num) => `($(Lean.quote x.getNat.repr))
| _ => Lean.Macro.throwUnsupported
def expandFoo : Lean.Macro
| `(foo| $x:foo) => do
let x1 <- expandFoo1 x
expandFoo2 x1
macro_rules
| `(bar| $[$xs:foo],*) => do
-- let xs' <- xs.mapM expandFoo1
-- let xs' <- xs.mapM expandFoo2
let xs' <- xs.mapM expandFoo
let xsl : List (Lean.TSyntax `term) := xs'.toList.map λ stx => ⟨stx⟩
`($(Lean.quote xsl))
syntax "[bar|" bar "]" : term
macro_rules
| `([bar| $x:bar]) => `(bar| $x)
#check [bar| foo, baz]
#check [bar| 1, 2]
#check [bar| foo, 2]
I imagine I'm missing some housekeeping in MacroM
with my improvised do
-gluing there (actually based on Haskell's >=>
). I imagine there might already even be a function that join macros like these somewhere but I cannot find it, can someone maybe point me to it?

Another option that kind of works but is pretty unsatisfactory (feels hacky) is just adding both patterns to one function and then marking the syntax by hand by defining another function (as the macro annotations won't combine)
@[macro foo1]
def expandFoo1 : Lean.Macro
| `(foo| $x:ident) => `($(Lean.quote x.getId.toString))
| `(foo| $x:num) => `($(Lean.quote x.getNat.repr))
| _ => Lean.Macro.throwUnsupported
@[macro foo2]
def expandFoo2 : Lean.Macro := expandFoo1
(I'm assuming that I'll also want those macro expansions to work on their own)
