This helper function takes the parser given and:
sets the position when parsing
automatically skips leading whitespace
checks the parser parses all the input using eof
converts the error return to the nice wrapper

== literals
See the stringLiteral lexer below for notes on string literal syntax.
> estring :: P ScalarExpr
> estring = StringLit <$> stringLiteral
> number :: P ScalarExpr
> number = NumLit <$> numberLiteral
parse SQL interval literals, something like
interval '5' day (3)
or
interval '5' month
wrap the whole lot in try, in case we get something like this:
interval '3 days'
which parses as a typed literal
> interval :: P ScalarExpr
> interval = try (keyword_ "interval" >>
> IntervalLit
> <$> stringLiteral
> <*> identifierString
> <*> optionMaybe (try $ parens integerLiteral))

> literal = number <|> estring <|> interval
== identifiers
Uses the identifierString 'lexer'. See this function for notes on
identifiers.
> name :: P Name
> name = choice [QName <$> quotedIdentifier
> ,Name <$> identifierString]
> identifier :: P ScalarExpr
> identifier = Iden <$> name
== star
used in select *, select x.*, and agg(*) variations, and some other
places as well. Because it is quite general, the parser doesn't
attempt to check that the star is in a valid context, it parses it ok
in any scalar expression context.
> star :: P ScalarExpr
> star = Star <$ symbol "*"
== function application, aggregates and windows
this represents anything which syntactically looks like regular C
function application: an identifier, parens with comma sep scalar
expression arguments.
The parsing for the aggregate extensions is here as well:
aggregate([all|distinct] args [order by orderitems])
> aggOrApp :: P ScalarExpr
> aggOrApp =
> makeApp
> <$> name
> <*> parens ((,,) <$> try duplicates
> <*> choice [commaSep scalarExpr']
> <*> try (optionMaybe orderBy))
> where
> makeApp i (Nothing,es,Nothing) = App i es
> makeApp i (d,es,od) = AggregateApp i d es (fromMaybe [] od)
> duplicates :: P (Maybe Duplicates)
> duplicates = optionMaybe $ try $
> choice [All <$ keyword_ "all"
> ,Distinct <$ keyword "distinct"]
parse a window call as a suffix of a regular function call
this looks like this:
functionname(args) over ([partition by ids] [order by orderitems])
No support for explicit frames yet.
The convention in this file is that the 'Suffix', erm, suffix on
parser names means that they have been left factored. These are almost
always used with the optionSuffix combinator.
> windowSuffix :: ScalarExpr -> P ScalarExpr
> windowSuffix (App f es) =
> try (keyword_ "over")
> *> parens (WindowApp f es

== miscellaneous keyword operators
These are keyword operators which don't look like normal prefix,
postfix or infix binary operators. They mostly look like function
application but with keywords in the argument list instead of commas
to separate the arguments.

between:
expr between expr and expr
There is a complication when parsing between - when parsing the second
expression it is ambiguous when you hit an 'and' whether it is a
binary operator or part of the between. This code follows what
postgres does, which might be standard across SQL implementations,
which is that you can't have a binary and operator in the middle
expression in a between unless it is wrapped in parens. The 'bExpr
parsing' is used to create alternative scalar expression parser which
is identical to the normal one expect it doesn't recognise the binary
and operator. This is the call to scalarExpr'' True.

== operator parsing
The 'regular' operators in this parsing and in the abstract syntax are
unary prefix, unary postfix and binary infix operators. The operators
can be symbols (a + b), single keywords (a and b) or multiple keywords
(a is similar to b).
First, the list of the regulars operators split by operator type
(prefix, postfix, binary) and by symbol/single keyword/ multiple
keyword.

There aren't any multi keyword prefix operators currently supported.
> prefixUnOpKeywordNames :: [String]
> prefixUnOpKeywordNames = ["not"]
> prefixUnOpSymbolNames :: [String]

There aren't any single keyword postfix operators currently
supported. Maybe all these 'is's can be left factored?

The parsers:

All the binary operators are parsed as same precedence and left
associativity. This is fixed with a separate pass over the AST.

TODO:
left factor stuff which starts with identifier
This parses most of the scalar exprs. I'm not sure if factor is the
correct terminology here. The order of the parsers and use of try is
carefully done to make everything work. It is a little fragile and
could at least do with some heavy explanation.

Wrapper for non 'bExpr' parsing. See the between parser for
explanation.
> scalarExpr' :: P ScalarExpr
> scalarExpr' = scalarExpr'' False
The scalarExpr wrapper. The idea is that directly nested scalar
expressions use the scalarExpr' parser, then other code uses the
scalarExpr parser and then everyone gets the fixity fixes and it's
easy to ensure that this fix is only applied once to each scalar
expression tree (for efficiency and code clarity).

== simple other parts
Parsers for where, group by, having, order by and limit, which are
pretty trivial.
Here is a helper for parsing a few parts of the query expr (currently
where, having, limit, offset).

This parser parses any query expression variant: normal select, cte,
and union, etc..

= lexing parsers
The lexing is a bit 'virtual', in the usual parsec style. The
convention in this file is to put all the parsers which access
characters directly or indirectly here (i.e. ones which use char,
string, digit, etc.), except for the parsers which only indirectly
access them via these functions, if you follow?
> symbol :: String -> P String
> symbol s = string s
> -- <* notFollowedBy (oneOf "+-/*<>=!|")
> <* whiteSpace
> symbol_ :: String -> P ()
> symbol_ s = symbol s *> return ()
TODO: now that keyword has try in it, a lot of the trys above can be
removed
> keyword :: String -> P String
> keyword s = try $ do
> i <- identifierRaw
> guard (map toLower i == map toLower s)
> return i
> keyword_ :: String -> P ()
> keyword_ s = keyword s *> return ()
Identifiers are very simple at the moment: start with a letter or
underscore, and continue with letter, underscore or digit. It doesn't
support quoting other other sorts of identifiers yet. There is a
blacklist of keywords which aren't supported as identifiers.
the identifier raw doesn't check the blacklist since it is used by the
keyword parser also
> identifierRaw :: P String
> identifierRaw = (:) <$> letterOrUnderscore
> <*> many letterDigitOrUnderscore <* whiteSpace
> where
> letterOrUnderscore = char '_' <|> letter
> letterDigitOrUnderscore = char '_' <|> alphaNum
> identifierString :: P String
> identifierString = do
> s <- identifierRaw
> guard (map toLower s `notElem` blacklist)
> return s
> blacklist :: [String]
> blacklist =
> ["select", "as", "from", "where", "having", "group", "order"
> ,"limit", "offset"
> ,"inner", "left", "right", "full", "natural", "join"
> ,"cross", "on", "using", "lateral"
> ,"when", "then", "case", "end", "in"
> ,"except", "intersect", "union"]
These blacklisted names are mostly needed when we parse something with
an optional alias, e.g. select a a from t. If we write select a from
t, we have to make sure the from isn't parsed as an alias. I'm not
sure what other places strictly need the blacklist, and in theory it
could be tuned differently for each place the identifierString/
identifier parsers are used to only blacklist the bare minimum.
> quotedIdentifier :: P String
> quotedIdentifier = char '"' *> manyTill anyChar (symbol_ "\"")
String literals: limited at the moment, no escaping \' or other
variations.
> stringLiteral :: P String
> stringLiteral = (char '\'' *> manyTill anyChar (char '\'')
> >>= optionSuffix moreString) <* whiteSpace
> where
> moreString s0 = try $ do
> void $ char '\''

> optionSuffix moreString (s0 ++ "'" ++ s)
number literals
here is the rough grammar target:
digits
digits.[digits][e[+-]digits]
[digits].digits[e[+-]digits]
digitse[+-]digits
numbers are parsed to strings, not to a numeric type. This is to avoid
making a decision on how to represent numbers, the client code can
make this choice.
> numberLiteral :: P String
> numberLiteral =
> choice [int
> >>= optionSuffix dot
> >>= optionSuffix fracts

= generic parser helpers
a possible issue with the option suffix is that it enforces left
associativity when chaining it recursively. Have to review
all these uses and figure out if any should be right associative
instead, and create an alternative suffix parser

> optionSuffix p a = option a (p a)
> parens :: P a -> P a
