faster-megaparsec

This package defines a MonadParsec instance for (a type isomorphic to) StateT s Maybe where s is a Megaparsec Stream type such as String, Text or ByteString. This parser can be faster than Cassava for csv parsing but at the cost of no error information whatsoever.

If, however, you construct your parser in a generic MonadParsec fashion, then with the help of Text.Megaparsec.Simple.tryFast you can first attempt to specialize and run the fast parser supplied by this package and only on parse error specialize the parser to ParsecT and parse again, yielding an informative error message.
This buys you speed in the smooth case of successful parsing at the cost of double parse when something goes wrong.

Beware that the behaviour of a SimpleParser can differ from its Parsec sibling because

• SimpleParser is always backtracking since it does not know whether it has consumed tokens,
• any fancy parsing that relies on inspecting parser state components such as offset will not work as intended.
