About

A text parser written in the Python language.

The parser is pretty fast, but not as user friendly as PyParsing and Lark.

• Thanks PyParsing for a user friendly interface. Many of textparser’s class names are taken from this project.

Installation

pip install textparser

Example usage

The Hello World example parses the string Hello, World! and outputs its parse tree ['Hello', ',', 'World', '!'].

The script:

import textparser
from textparser import Sequence


class Parser(textparser.Parser):

    def token_specs(self):
        return [
            ('SKIP',          r'[ \r\n\t]+'),
            ('WORD',          r'\w+'),
            ('EMARK',    '!', r'!'),
            ('COMMA',    ',', r','),
            ('MISMATCH',      r'.')
        ]

    def grammar(self):
        return Sequence('WORD', ',', 'WORD', '!')


tree = Parser().parse('Hello, World!')

print('Tree:', tree)

Script execution:

$ python3 examples/hello_world.py
Tree: ['Hello', ',', 'World', '!']
$
