;;; Commentary:

;; This package offers a single macro, `let-alist'.  This macro takes a
;; first argument (whose value must be an alist) and a body.
;;
;; The macro expands to a let form containing body, where each dotted
;; symbol inside body is let-bound to their cdrs in the alist.  Dotted
;; symbol is any symbol starting with a `.'.  Only those present in
;; the body are let-bound and this search is done at compile time.
;;
;; For instance, the following code
;;
;;   (let-alist alist
;;     (if (and .title .body)
;;         .body
;;       .site
;;       .site.contents))
;;
;; essentially expands to
;;
;;   (let ((.title (cdr (assq 'title alist)))
;;         (.body  (cdr (assq 'body alist)))
;;         (.site  (cdr (assq 'site alist)))
;;         (.site.contents (cdr (assq 'contents (cdr (assq 'site alist))))))
;;     (if (and .title .body)
;;         .body
;;       .site
;;       .site.contents))
;;
;; If you nest `let-alist' invocations, the inner one can't access
;; the variables of the outer one. You can, however, access alists
;; inside the original alist by using dots inside the symbol, as
;; displayed in the example above by the `.site.contents'.
;;
;;; Code:


(defun let-alist--deep-dot-search (data)
  "Return alist of symbols inside DATA that start with a `.'.
Perform a deep search and return an alist where each car is the
symbol, and each cdr is the same symbol without the `.'."
  (cond
   ((symbolp data)
    (let ((name (symbol-name data)))
      (when (string-match "\\`\\." name)
        ;; Return the cons cell inside a list, so it can be appended
        ;; with other results in the clause below.
        (list (cons data (intern (replace-match "" nil nil name)))))))
   ((not (consp data)) nil)
   (t (append (let-alist--deep-dot-search (car data))
              (let-alist--deep-dot-search (cdr data))))))

(defun let-alist--access-sexp (symbol variable)
  "Return a sexp used to access SYMBOL inside VARIABLE."
  (let* ((clean (let-alist--remove-dot symbol))
         (name (symbol-name clean)))
    (if (string-match "\\`\\." name)
        clean
      (let-alist--list-to-sexp
       (mapcar #'intern (nreverse (split-string name "\\.")))
       variable))))

(defun let-alist--list-to-sexp (list var)
  "Turn symbols LIST into recursive calls to `cdr' `assq' on VAR."
  `(cdr (assq ',(car list)
              ,(if (cdr list) (let-alist--list-to-sexp (cdr list) var)
                 var))))

(defun let-alist--remove-dot (symbol)
  "Return SYMBOL, sans an initial dot."
  (let ((name (symbol-name symbol)))
    (if (string-match "\\`\\." name)
        (intern (replace-match "" nil nil name))
      symbol)))
