如何在pegjs中匹配以“？”开头的令牌

Question

I have to match tokens like this using pegjs:

?xxx ?yyy

I would have thought this would work :

variable 
   = str:?[a-z]+ {  console.log('---->>>',str); return str.join(""); } 

When I parse the source I get and error:

Object ? has no method 'join'

This is because the str variable is not an array of the matched tokens... Any idea how this should be done?

You can either group literals together:

variable 
    = str:("?"[a-z]+)

in which case str will be ["?",["a","b","c"]] for ?abc , or, if ? is not necessarily the first char, just include it in the class:

variable 
    = str:[?a-z]+

then you'll get a normal array ["?","a","b","c"] .
