Function nom::combinator::peek

pub fn peek<I: Clone, O, E: ParseError<I>, F>(
    f: F
) -> impl FnMut(I) -> IResult<I, O, E> where
    F: Parser<I, O, E>, 

Tries to apply its parser without consuming the input.

let mut parser = peek(alpha1);

assert_eq!(parser("abcd;"), Ok(("abcd;", "abcd")));
assert_eq!(parser("123;"), Err(Err::Error(("123;", ErrorKind::Alpha))));
