A Python Parser
Project description
Parso is a Python parser that supports error recovery and round-trip parsing for different Python versions (in multiple Python versions). Parso is also able to list multiple syntax errors in your python file.
Parso has been battle-tested by jedi. It was pulled out of jedi to be useful for other projects as well.
Parso consists of a small API to parse Python and analyse the syntax tree.
A simple example:
>>> import parso
>>> module = parso.parse('hello + 1', version="3.9")
>>> expr = module.children[0]
>>> expr
PythonNode(arith_expr, [<Name: hello@1,0>, <Operator: +>, <Number: 1>])
>>> print(expr.get_code())
hello + 1
>>> name = expr.children[0]
>>> name
<Name: hello@1,0>
>>> name.end_pos
(1, 5)
>>> expr.end_pos
(1, 9)To list multiple issues:
>>> grammar = parso.load_grammar()
>>> module = grammar.parse('foo +\nbar\ncontinue')
>>> error1, error2 = grammar.iter_errors(module)
>>> error1.message
'SyntaxError: invalid syntax'
>>> error2.message
"SyntaxError: 'continue' not properly in loop"Resources
Installation
pip install parsoFuture
There will be better support for refactoring and comments. Stay tuned.
There’s a WIP PEP8 validator. It’s however not in a good shape, yet.
Known Issues
async/await are already used as keywords in Python3.6.
from __future__ import print_function is not ignored.
Acknowledgements
Guido van Rossum (@gvanrossum) for creating the parser generator pgen2 (originally used in lib2to3).
Salome Schneider for the extremely awesome parso logo.
Changelog
Unreleased
0.8.5 (2025-08-23)
Add a fallback grammar for Python 3.14+
0.8.4 (2024-04-05)
Add basic support for Python 3.13
0.8.3 (2021-11-30)
Add basic support for Python 3.11 and 3.12
0.8.2 (2021-03-30)
Various small bugfixes
0.8.1 (2020-12-10)
Various small bugfixes
0.8.0 (2020-08-05)
Dropped Support for Python 2.7, 3.4, 3.5
It’s possible to use pathlib.Path objects now in the API
The stubs are gone, we are now using annotations
namedexpr_test nodes are now a proper class called NamedExpr
A lot of smaller refactorings
0.7.1 (2020-07-24)
Fixed a couple of smaller bugs (mostly syntax error detection in Grammar.iter_errors)
This is going to be the last release that supports Python 2.7, 3.4 and 3.5.
0.7.0 (2020-04-13)
Fix a lot of annoying bugs in the diff parser. The fuzzer did not find issues anymore even after running it for more than 24 hours (500k tests).
Small grammar change: suites can now contain newlines even after a newline. This should really not matter if you don’t use error recovery. It allows for nicer error recovery.
0.6.2 (2020-02-27)
Bugfixes
Add Grammar.refactor (might still be subject to change until 0.7.0)
0.6.1 (2020-02-03)
Add parso.normalizer.Issue.end_pos to make it possible to know where an issue ends
0.6.0 (2020-01-26)
Dropped Python 2.6/Python 3.3 support
del_stmt names are now considered as a definition (for name.is_definition())
Bugfixes
0.5.2 (2019-12-15)
Add include_setitem to get_definition/is_definition and get_defined_names (#66)
Fix named expression error listing (#89, #90)
Fix some f-string tokenizer issues (#93)
0.5.1 (2019-07-13)
Fix: Some unicode identifiers were not correctly tokenized
Fix: Line continuations in f-strings are now working
0.5.0 (2019-06-20)
Breaking Change comp_for is now called sync_comp_for for all Python versions to be compatible with the Python 3.8 Grammar
Added .pyi stubs for a lot of the parso API
Small FileIO changes
0.4.0 (2019-04-05)
Python 3.8 support
FileIO support, it’s now possible to use abstract file IO, support is alpha
0.3.4 (2019-02-13)
Fix an f-string tokenizer error
0.3.3 (2019-02-06)
Fix async errors in the diff parser
A fix in iter_errors
This is a very small bugfix release
0.3.2 (2019-01-24)
20+ bugfixes in the diff parser and 3 in the tokenizer
A fuzzer for the diff parser, to give confidence that the diff parser is in a good shape.
Some bugfixes for f-string
0.3.1 (2018-07-09)
Bugfixes in the diff parser and keyword-only arguments
0.3.0 (2018-06-30)
Rewrote the pgen2 parser generator.
0.2.1 (2018-05-21)
A bugfix for the diff parser.
Grammar files can now be loaded from a specific path.
0.2.0 (2018-04-15)
f-strings are now parsed as a part of the normal Python grammar. This makes it way easier to deal with them.
0.1.1 (2017-11-05)
Fixed a few bugs in the caching layer
Added support for Python 3.7
0.1.0 (2017-09-04)
Pulling the library out of Jedi. Some APIs will definitely change.
