flpc: Lightning-Fast Python Regex

🚀 Supercharge your Python regex with Rust-powered performance!

🌟 Why flpc?

[CURRENTLY IN EXPERIMENTAL STAGE]

flpc is a powerful Python library that wraps the blazing-fast Rust regex crate, bringing enhanced speed to your regular expression operations. It's designed to be a drop-in replacement for Python's native re module, with some minor syntax differences.

🚀 Quick Start

1. Install flpc:

   pip install flpc
   

2. Use it in your code as shown in the API

🔧 API

flpc mirrors the re module's API, with a few small exceptions:

• Use fmatch() instead of match() (to avoid conflicts with Python's keyword)
• When using group() on a match object, always provide an index (e.g., group(0) for the entire match)

Common functions include:

• compile()
• search()
• findall()
• finditer()
• split()
• sub()
• subn()

💡 Pro Tips

• Pre-compile your patterns for faster execution
• Use raw strings (r'') for cleaner regex patterns
• Always check if a match is found before accessing groups
• Remember to use group(0) to get the entire match
