FASTA parser implemented in Rust with nom.
nom is a performant yet easy-to-use parser combinators library written in Rust. nom can handle either text or binary data. Here, based on nom, I implemented a parser for the FASTA, a text file format containing one more more protein/DNA/RNA sequences.
extern crate fasta;
use fasta::Records;
use std::fs::File;
use std::io::prelude::*;
fn main() {
let mut f = File::open("e.fasta").unwrap();
let mut data = String::with_capacity(512);
f.read_to_string(&mut data).unwrap();
let a: Vec<_> = Records(&data).into_iter().collect();
println!("{:?}", a);
}[Ok(Record { id: "gi|2765644|emb|Z78519.1|CPZ78519", desc: Some("C.pubescens 5.8S rRNA gene and ITS1 and ITS2 DNA"), seq: "ATATGATCGAGTGAATCTGGTGGACTTGTGGTTACTCAGCTCGCCATAGGCTTTGCTTTTGCGGTGACCCTAATTTGTCATTGGGCCTCCTCCCAAGCTTTCCTTGTGGGTTTGAACCTCTAGCACGGTGCAGTA" }), Ok(Record { id: "gi|2765643|emb|Z78518.1|CRZ78518", desc: Some("C.reginae 5.8S rRNA gene and ITS1 and ITS2 DNA"), seq: "CGTAACAAGGTTTCCGTAGGTGAACCTGCGGGAGGATCATTGTTGAGATAGTAGAATATTCGATCGAGTGAATCCGGAGGACTTGTGGTTACTCGGCTCGTCGAAGGCTTAACTTTTGTGGTGACCCTGATTTGT" }), Ok(Record { id: "gi|2765642|emb|Z78517.1|CFZ78517", desc: Some("C.flavum 5.8S rRNA gene and ITS1 and ITS2 DNA"), seq: "CGTAACAAGGTTTCCGTAGGTGAACCTGCGGAAGGATCATTGTTGA...
