Funcparserlib
|
|
|
|
Recursive descent parsing library for Python based on functional
|
|
combinators.
|
|
|
|
Parsers made with funcparserlib are pure-Python LL(*) parsers. It means
|
|
that it's very easy to write parsers without thinking about lookaheads
|
|
and other hardcore parsing stuff. However, recursive descent parsing is
|
|
a rather slow method compared to LL(k) or LR(k) algorithms. Still,
|
|
parsing with funcparserlib is at least twice faster than PyParsing, a
|
|
very popular library for Python.
|
|
|
|
The source code of funcparserlib is only 1.2K lines of code, with lots
|
|
of comments. Its API is fully type hinted. It features the longest
|
|
parsed prefix error reporting, as well as a tiny lexer generator for
|
|
token position tracking.
