Fairly new here. I am trying to use Prolog for parsing and analyzing code. Essentially I want to flatten the AST into facts so that with rules, I may query over them. I want to parse Clojure atm, but would like something general. Which Prolog implementations are appropriate?
Also relevant is this article: https://marcellerusu.com/using_prolog_as_the_ast.html

There's a rather old paper: "Logic Programming and Compiler Writing" by David H.D. Warren. Also Peter Van Roy's PhD thesis on the "Aquarius" compiler.
See also Abrahams and Dahl "Logic Grammars" (you can find some simple code for DCTGs on the internet, although it's a somewhat slow implementation).
I wrote some code for processing Python ASTs: https://github.com/kamahen/pykythe (pykythe.pl, predicate kynode)..
It has what looks like a big pattern-matching "case" statement on the various AST node types. I intend to rewrite this code somewhat, using a newer way of handling accumulators (https://swi-prolog.discourse.group/t/dealing-with-state/6866/10 but modified to use "records" instead of "dicts" (https://swi-prolog.discourse.group/t/dealing-with-state/6866/50).
You might find it more productive to discuss in https://swi-prolog.discourse.group rather than here.

Parsing is a typical application for Prolog and there is a ton of material available online at all levels: <https://start.duckduckgo.com/?q=Prolog+parsing+AST>

Ah, now I see what job you are here for...

Nope - it's just that I don't read comp.lang.prolog often, but do read https://swi-prolog.discourse.group (moved from https://groups.google.com/g/swi-prolog), which is officially about SWI-Prolog but often has more general discussion about Prolog.

I don't believe you, especially considering the actual history and why we are where we are. Anyway, as an old timer, you should at least know that pointing users somewhere else is very poor etiquette to say the least: especially since I for one am still around here and kicking, in fact almost the only active user left.
But I'm an optimist, I might be wrong: let's see what happens next.

Says the guy with no brains, who even doesnt understand
simple call/1 examples. The contrary of alive and kicking.
More a brain dead Prolog zombie about to desintegrate.

Culio is as brain dead as LogNonsenseTalk.
These negation tests are also rather minimal: https://github.com/LogtalkDotOrg/logtalk3/tree/master/tests/prolog/predicates/not_1
Understandable, if \+ is bootstrapped as specified
the unit test for call/1, etc.. should suffice. More test
cases are only needed if one is sceptical about the
bootstrapping of \+ or its compilation. Currently in
the process of creating more „Novacore“ test cases.
Unfortunately the domain www.novacore.ch wasn‘t
available anymore, so I went for:
www.novacuor.ch
