Parsy is an easy and elegant way to parse text in Python by combining small
parsers into complex, larger parsers. If it means anything to you, it's a
monadic parser combinator library for LL(infinity) grammars in the spirit of
Parsec, Parsnip, and Parsimmon. But don't worry, it has really good
documentation and it doesn't say things like that!
For a good example of the kind of clear, declarative code you can create using
parsy, see the SQL SELECT statement example or JSON parser.
The project:
- has zero dependencies outside stdlib.
- is highly mature and stable, with few-to-none backwards incompatibilities over
the past 10 years.
- is essentially complete, with no rewrites planned. Widely useful improvements
that don't break compatibility will still be considered, however.
- is implemented in a single module with less than 800LOC, which you could
vendor easily if required.
NOTE: If this package has multiple flavors (see below), then use one of them instead of the name specified above. NOTE: This is a Python port. Instead of py311-parsy listed in the above command, you can pick from the names under the Packages section.
