match_spec是什么呢?

A “match specification” (match_spec) is an Erlang term describing a small “program” that will try to match something (either the parameters to a function as used in the erlang:trace_pattern/2 BIF, or the objects in an ETS table.). The match_spec in many ways works like a small function in Erlang, but is interpreted/compiled by the Erlang runtime system to something much more efficient than calling an Erlang function. The match_spec is also very limited compared to the expressiveness of real Erlang functions.

具体参见这里
说白了它就是个erlang term得过滤器,可以让用户来自己选择需要匹配什么,需要从term里面抽取什么数据。那同学可能就有疑问了,Erlang的函数不是很强大吗,它能做的函数也能做,那为什么要重新费劲做一个呢?
Erlang实现这个match_spec得原因有2个:1. 运行效率 2. 小巧可以在运行期使用。

它的实现思路是: match_spec是个引擎,有自己的语法,先把语句编译成专用的opcode, 然后在在匹配的时候运行opcode,获取结果,可以理解为erlang的DSL。

接下来我带大家先感性的认识下这个DSL:
