pyfloyd

A parsing framework and parser generator for Python.

Getting set up.

  1. Install uv via whatever system-specific magic you need (e.g., brew install uv on a Mac w/ Homebrew).
  2. Run ./run devenv to create a virtualenv at //.venv with all of the tools needed to do development (and with pyfloyd installed as an editable Python project.
  3. Run source ./.venv/bin/activate to activate the environment and pick up the tools.

Running the tests

Get set up as per the above, and then run ./run tests.

There are other commands to run to do other things like lint and format the code. ./run --help is your friend to find out more.

Publishing a version

  1. Run ./run build
  2. Run ./run publish --test] or ./run publish --prod to upload to PyPI. If you pass --test, the package will be uploaded to TestPyPI instead of the production instance.

Version History / Release Notes

  • v0.19.0 (2024-11-18)
    • Clean up handling of external values in grammars and add more error checking.
    • Clean up the way the language to use when generating code is selected.
  • v0.18.3 (2024-11-17)
    • Remove dependencies on build, twine, just use uv build and uv publish.
  • v0.18.2 (2024-11-17)
    • Fix .gitignore.
  • v0.18.1 (2024-11-18)
    • Update README.md.
  • v0.18.0 (2024-11-17)
    • First release from pyfloyd. Renames everything and moves the package directory under src/.
  • v0.17.4 (2024-11-17)
    • More cleanup - hopefully final release from floyd-python
  • v0.17.3 (2024-11-17)
    • More cleanup
  • v0.17.2 (2024-11-17)
    • More cleanup
  • v0.17.0 (2024-11-17)
    • Remove code from floyd-python repo.
  • v0.16.0 (2024-11-17)
    • Tons of cleanup, move to new syntax. I'm too lazy to document all of the changes from v0.15.0 to here. This is intended to be the last release of this project under this name; work will continue under the name pyfloyd.
  • v0.15.0 (2024-07-05)
    • Add a JavaScript back end. As a part of this I've changed the GitHub CI config to install a specific version of Node so that the new JS codepaths are tested properly.
  • v0.14.0 (2024-06-30)
    • Move a lot of the logic from python_compiler.py to a new pass in analyzer.py. Now python_compiler is very simple and you can start to see how it can be converted to something in a DSL like StringTemplate. This also will make it much easier to share logic between different compilers.
  • v0.13 (2024-06-29)
    • Rework the way subrules are generated and named to be much less cryptic. Now rules result in methods named _r_{rule}_ and subrules methods named _s_{rule}_{i} where i is a series of consecutive integers named in a depth first manner.
  • v0.12 (2024-06-29)
    • Significantly rework the generated parser so that it is less like a set of parser combinators (self._star() and so on) and more like code that you'd write inline by hand. This appears to produce a parser close to 2x faster for 1.33x more code.
  • v0.11 (2024-06-22)
    • Rework the API significantly. Now the generated parser API is a single parse() function and a data type for the return value (Result), and the public API functions are called compile() instead of compile_parser() and generate() instead of generate_parser().
    • Add typing hints to everything.
    • Add lots more documentation of the API.
  • v0.10.2 (2024-06-22)
    • Update test to use 79 cols instead of 80.
  • v0.10.1 (2024-06-22)
    • Change formatter to default to 79 cols and regen/reformat.
  • v0.10.0 (2024-06-22)
    • Clean up compiler code, rework how inlining methods works. At this point the compiler code is probably about as reasonably clean and fast as the inlining approach can be.
  • v0.9.0 (2024-05-19)
    • get operator expressions working: you can now declare the precedence and associativity of different operators in an expression and they will be handled correctly. Note that there is a fair amount of special-casing logic for this so that only some of the expressions you might think would work will actually work. It's also unclear how well this will play with memoization.
  • v0.8.0 (2024-05-19)
    • get left association in expressions that are both left- and right-recursive working properly.
  • v0.7.0 (2024-05-05)
    • Add support for ?{...} for semantic predicates and {...} for semantic actions in addition to ?( ... ) and -> .... For now, both syntaxes will be supported.
  • v0.6.0
    • This version number was skipped.
  • v0.5.0 (2024-05-04)
    • Get automatic whitespace and comment insertion working. The two collectively are known as "filler".
    • You can now declare "tokens" that can consist of compound expressions that will not have filler interleaved.
    • Add support for positional labels in addition to named labels, i.e. you can write an expression as num '+' num -> $1 + $3 in addition to num:l '+' num:r -> l + r. Both syntaxes will be supported for now.
    • Do much more semantic analysis to catch a broader set of errors.
    • Add support for unicode character classes via \p{X}.
    • Turn --memoize and --main off by default in floyd.tool.
    • Got left recursion working.
    • Added type hints to the API.
  • v0.4.0
    • This version number was skipped.
  • v0.3.0 (2024-04-02)
    • Changed the interpreter so that it no longer relies on runtime compilation.
  • v0.2.0 (2024-03-31)
    • 100% test coverage.
    • Code is clean and ready for new work.
    • Add docs/goals.md to describe what I'm hoping to accomplish with this project.
    • Add docs/todos.md to capture everything I'm planning to fix or change.
  • v0.1.0 (2024-03-25)
    • Copy over working code from glop v0.7.0. This copies only the code needed to run things, and a couple of grammars that can be used for hand-testing things. This does not add any tests, since I'm likely going to rework all of that. The code is as-is as close to the working glop code as I can keep it, except for updated formatting and copyright info. check and lint are unhappy, the coverage numbers are terrible, and we probably need to regenerate the floyd parser as well.
  • v0.0.5 (2024-03-24)
    • There's a pattern forming.
  • v0.0.4 (2024-03-24)
    • Actually bump the version this time.
  • v0.0.3 (2024-03-24)
    • Fix typos and bugs found after v0.0.2 was tagged :).
  • v0.0.2 (2024-03-24)
    • Fix typos found after v0.0.1 was tagged :).
  • v0.0.1 (2024-03-24)
    • Initial skeleton of the project uploaded to GitHub. There is nothing project-specific about this project except for the name and description.
