# DSL for build AST tree
 
## Usage

All nodes of AST tree builder is header only.

For use DSL for AST tree builder:

1. Include header with needed node
2. Create builder:
    
    1. All builder methods, except method `Build`, return `ASTBuilder` class.
    2. Builder constructor have `Allocator` argument, that must be sended.
    3. For set arguments for construct node we have methods that starts with `Set` or `Add`. For all necessary fields for constructor we have methods for set them.
    4. All builders have method `SetParent`, it can be used for set parent node.
    5. To get node from builder you must to use method `Build`

    Example:
    ```cpp
    // Create NumberLiteralBuildr, set value and build it. Variable `left` is NumberLiteral after call `Build` method.
    auto left = NumberLiteralBuilder(Allocator()).SetValue("10").Build();
    auto right = NumberLiteralBuilder(Allocator()).SetValue("5").Build();
    // Create BinaryExpressionBuilder, set left operand, set right operand, set operator and build BinaryExpression node.
    auto binaryExpr = BinaryExpressionBuilder(Allocator())
                          .SetLeft(left)
                          .SetRight(right)
                          .SetOperator(ark::es2panda::lexer::TokenType::PUNCTUATOR_PLUS)
                          .Build();
    ```
