How do I get the original text that an antlr4 rule matched?

ANTLR’s CharStream class has a method getText(Interval interval) which will return the original source in the give range. The Context object has methods to get the beginning and end. Assuming you have a field in your listener called input which has the CharStream being parsed, you can do this:

    int a = ctx.start.getStartIndex();
    int b = ctx.stop.getStopIndex();
    Interval interval = new Interval(a,b);
    input.getText(interval);
