Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Pyparsing 3.1.0 released
After over a year since the last release of pyparsing, I've bundled up all the bug-fixes and changes, and they are now released as pyparsing 3.1.0. Visit this link for the details.

Need help developing an interpreter
Look into "parser combinators" for building an interpreter. There's a few ones out there, but PyParsing is one I've seen around that looks pretty nifty.

About a month ago I posted about PRegEx, an open-source project which I had started that you can use to build RegEx patterns programmatically, which the subreddit seem to like. This prompted me to keep working on it, and one month later, PRegEx v2.0.0 is out!
I havent found a way to specify an exact character match in pyparsing - https://github.com/pyparsing/pyparsing/discussions/443

Python toolkits
STDOUT: Lark or pyparsing
- TatSu takes grammars in variation of EBNF, outputs memoizing Python PEG parsers

Parser Combinators in Haskell
Since it is not mentioned in the article: Python users may also want to check out pyparsing [0]. It is slightly different from Parsec/FParsec (for instance, it ignores all whitespace by default), but I think it is a really good project.

Pyparsing 3.0.x - off to a rocky start, but I think 3.0.6 looks fairly solid
Here is the page of all the new changes and features in pyparsing 3.0.
- luna is a Domain specific language that translates to regex. It's an attempt to make regex more readable.

Recommended way to read and parse a couple thousand small files
Your pyparsing parser might benefit from a tune-up. This page has some performance tips: https://github.com/pyparsing/pyparsing/wiki/Performance-Tips.

Script for extracting info from a SQL File
If your SQL has fairly complex structure, you will need a full blown SQL parser. If your statements are mostly simple select, you can get pretty close with Pyparsing, here is an example.

Show HN: I wrote a RDBMS (SQLite clone) from scratch in pure Python
Lark supports, and recommends, writing and storing the grammar in a .lark file. We have syntax highlighting support in all major IDEs, and even in github itself. For example, here is Lark's built-in grammar for Python: https://github.com/lark-parser/lark/blob/master/lark/grammar...
You can also test grammars "live" in our online IDE: https://www.lark-parser.org/ide/
The rationale is that it's more terse and has less visual clutter than a DSL over Python, which makes it easier to read and write.

Oops, I wrote yet another SQLAlchemy alternative (looking for contributors!)
First, let me introduce myself. My name is Erez. You may know some of the Python libraries I wrote in the past: Lark, Preql and Data-diff.
-
Hey guys, have any of you tried creating your own language using Python? I'm interested in giving it a shot and was wondering if anyone has any tips or resources to recommend. Thanks in advance!
It's not super maintained but you might enjoy building something with ppci, Pure Python Compiler Infrastructure. It has some front-ends and some back-ends. There's also PeachPy for an assembler. People like using Lark for parsing, I hear.
-
Is it possible to propagate higher level constructs (+, *) to the generated parse tree in an LR-style parser?
lark, a parsing library where I am somewhat involved has a really nice solution to this: Rules starting with _ are inlined in a post processing step.
-
can you create your own program language in python, if yes how?
Lark is a good library to assist with this.
- Lark a Python lexer/parser library
-
Create your own scripting language in Python with Sly
If I may ask, did you consider Lark, and if so, why wasn't it fit for your purposes?
- Creating a language with Python.

Not Your Grandfather’s Perl
A grammar provides the high level constructs you need to define the "shape" of your data, and it largely takes care of the rest. Grammar libraries exist in other language (eg. lark or Parsimonius in Python) and they weren't created just to make XML parsing easier.

Earley Parsing Explained
I made a solid attempt at an Earley parser framework of my own, but apparently to get the most reliable performance from Earley parsing you need to implement Joop Leo's improvement for right-recursive grammars, which nobody has been able to adequately explain to me. I've read Kegler's open letter to Vaillant, I've tried to read other implementations, I've even tried to beat my head against the original academic paper, but I don't have the background knowledge to make sense of it all.
