Installation

Requirements

• Python 3.6+

Stable release

To install slr-parser, run this command in your terminal:

pip install slr-parser

This is the preferred method to install slr-parser, as it will always install the most recent stable release.

If you don't have pip installed, this Python installation guide can guide you through the process.

From sources

The sources for slr-parser can be downloaded from the Github repo.

You can either clone the public repository:

git clone git://github.com/Vipul97/slr-parser

Or download the tarball:

curl -OJL https://github.com/Vipul97/slr-parser/tarball/master

Once you have a copy of the source, you can install it with:

python setup.py install

Usage

Grammar Syntax

• For every production, the head and the body of the production is separated by ->.
• Capitalized symbols are treated as nonterminals and non-capitalized symbols are treated as terminals.
• All symbols in the body of the production are separated by spaces. Multicharacter symbols can be made by not including spaces between the characters.
• The choice operator | can be used in the body of the production to match either the expression before or the expression after the operator.
• ^ is treated as the null symbol.

Grammar File

A text file containing the grammar is required. For example, the contents of a grammar file grammar.txt looks like this:

E -> E + T
E -> T
T -> T * F | F
F -> ( E )
F -> id

Tokens

The tokens enclosed within double quotes are required as the input to the SLR Parser. All tokens are separated with spaces. For example, "id + id * id".

usage: slr [-h] [-g] grammar_file tokens

positional arguments:
  grammar_file  text file to be used as grammar
  tokens        tokens to be parsed - all tokens are separated with spaces

optional arguments:
  -h, --help    show this help message and exit
  -g            generate automaton
