Description

Notation

The notation used on this page corresponds to the ANTLR 4 notation with a few exceptions for better readability:

omitted lexer rule actions and commands,
omitted lexical modes.

Short description:

operator | denotes alternative,
operator * denotes iteration (zero or more),
operator + denotes iteration (one or more),
operator ? denotes option (zero or one),
operator .. denotes range (from left to right),
operator ~ denotes negation.

Grammar source files

Kotlin grammar source files (in ANTLR format) are located in the Kotlin specification repository:

KotlinLexer.g4 describes lexical structure;
UnicodeClasses.g4 describes the characters that can be used in identifiers (these rules are omitted on this page for better readability);
KotlinParser.g4 describes syntax.

The grammar on this page corresponds to the grammar files above.

Symbols and naming

Terminal symbol names start with an uppercase letter, e.g. Identifier.
Non-terminal symbol names start with a lowercase letter, e.g. kotlinFile.

Symbol definitions may be documented with attributes:

start attribute denotes a symbol that represents the whole source file (see kotlinFile and script),
helper attribute denotes a lexer fragment rule (used only inside other terminal symbols).

Also for better readability some simplifications are made:

lexer rules consisting of one string literal element are inlined to the use site,
new line tokens are excluded (new lines are not allowed in some places, see source grammar files for details).

Scope

The grammar corresponds to the latest stable version of the Kotlin compiler excluding lexer and parser rules for experimental features that are disabled by default.

Depending on the target and publicity of the declaration, the set of allowed symbols in identifiers is different. This rule contains the union of allowed symbols from all targets. Thus, the code for any target can be parsed using the grammar.

The allowed symbols in identifiers corresponding to the target and publicity of the declaration are given below.
