gedcomkit (Python)

Python bindings for gedcomkit, an archival-grade GEDCOM library written in Rust: byte-preserving round-trip, encoding detection and reporting, GEDCOM 5.5 through 7.x. A node no caller touched is written back byte for byte; nothing is dropped for being unrecognized; hostile input is bounded.

import gedcomkit

doc = gedcomkit.Gedcom.parse(open("family.ged", "rb").read())
print(doc.encoding)          # "Read as ANSEL, declared ANSEL"
print(len(doc), doc.version)

for person in doc.individuals():
    print(person["names"], person["events"])

for finding in doc.validate():
    print(finding["severity"], finding["message"])

# The family graph reads both directions of the link, so a one-sided
# file (FAMC only, no CHIL) still answers.
print(doc.parents_of("@I3@"))

# Edit one structure by the path its view carries; every untouched
# line still writes back byte for byte.
doc.set_logical_value("@I1@", [0], "Ada /Lovelace/")
open("family.ged", "wb").write(doc.to_bytes())

Build from this directory with maturin:

maturin develop          # into the active virtualenv
maturin build --release  # a wheel

The Rust core lives at the root of the same repository; this crate is a thin PyO3 layer over its public API.
