optional inside: null | string | Grammar

Defined in: prism/types.ts:85

The nested grammar of this token.

The inside grammar will be used to tokenize the text value of each token of this kind.

This can be used to make nested and even recursive language definitions.

Note: This can cause infinite recursion. Be careful when you embed different languages or even the same language into each another.


optional lookbehind: boolean

Defined in: prism/types.ts:64

If true, then the first capturing group of pattern will (effectively) behave as a lookbehind group meaning that the captured text will not be part of the matched text of the new token.

false

pattern: RegExp

Defined in: prism/types.ts:58

The regular expression of the token.
