Derive Lezer from Jison

[andrei.f]

Hi,
I must confess that I have no experience with parsers, so the question may be silly

I defined a custom query language using Jison with a grammar file similar to this one

Is there a way to derive/auto-generate the Lezer grammar from the Jison grammar?

P.S. I would be grateful for some resource recommendations to understand these topics (grammars, parsers, etc.) more deeply.

Not really. But it should be pretty straightforward to hand-translate it.

This book is very good, if you have time for a book-length text. Otherwise I don’t have specific recommendations, but there’s tons of resources online.
