32Introduction
33============
34
35PLY is a 100% Python implementation of the common parsing tools lex
36and yacc. Here are a few highlights:
37
38 -  PLY is very closely modeled after traditional lex/yacc.
39    If you know how to use these tools in C, you will find PLY
40    to be similar.
41
42 -  PLY provides *very* extensive error reporting and diagnostic
43    information to assist in parser construction.  The original
44    implementation was developed for instructional purposes.  As
45    a result, the system tries to identify the most common types
46    of errors made by novice users.
47
48 -  PLY provides full support for empty productions, error recovery,
49    precedence specifiers, and moderately ambiguous grammars.
50
51 -  Parsing is based on LR-parsing which is fast, memory efficient,
52    better suited to large grammars, and which has a number of nice
53    properties when dealing with syntax errors and other parsing problems.
54    Currently, PLY builds its parsing tables using the LALR(1)
55    algorithm used in yacc.
56
57 -  PLY uses Python introspection features to build lexers and parsers.
58    This greatly simplifies the task of parser construction since it reduces
59    the number of files and eliminates the need to run a separate lex/yacc
60    tool before running your program.
61
62 -  PLY can be used to build parsers for "real" programming languages.
63    Although it is not ultra-fast due to its Python implementation,
64    PLY can be used to parse grammars consisting of several hundred
65    rules (as might be found for a language like C).  The lexer and LR
66    parser are also reasonably efficient when parsing typically
67    sized programs.  People have used PLY to build parsers for
68    C, C++, ADA, and other real programming languages.
69
70How to Use
71==========
72
73PLY consists of two files : lex.py and yacc.py.  These are contained
74within the 'ply' directory which may also be used as a Python package.
75To use PLY, simply copy the 'ply' directory to your project and import
76lex and yacc from the associated 'ply' package.  For example:
77
78     import ply.lex as lex
79     import ply.yacc as yacc
80
81Alternatively, you can copy just the files lex.py and yacc.py
82individually and use them as modules.  For example:
83
84     import lex
85     import yacc
86
87The file setup.py can be used to install ply using distutils.
88
89The file doc/ply.html contains complete documentation on how to use
90the system.
91
92The example directory contains several different examples including a
93PLY specification for ANSI C as given in K&R 2nd Ed.
94
95A simple example is found at the end of this document
96
97Requirements
98============
99PLY requires the use of Python 2.2 or greater.  However, you should
100use the latest Python release if possible.  It should work on just
101about any platform.  PLY has been tested with both CPython and Jython.
102It also seems to work with IronPython.
103
104Resources
105=========
106More information about PLY can be obtained on the PLY webpage at:
107
108     http://www.dabeaz.com/ply
109
110For a detailed overview of parsing theory, consult the excellent
111book "Compilers : Principles, Techniques, and Tools" by Aho, Sethi, and
112Ullman.  The topics found in "Lex & Yacc" by Levine, Mason, and Brown
113may also be useful.

119Acknowledgments
120===============
121A special thanks is in order for all of the students in CS326 who
122suffered through about 25 different versions of these tools :-).
123
124The CHANGES file acknowledges those who have contributed patches.
125
126Elias Ioup did the first implementation of LALR(1) parsing in PLY-1.x.
127Andrew Waters and Markus Schoepflin were instrumental in reporting bugs
128and testing a revised LALR(1) implementation for PLY-2.0.
129
130Special Note for PLY-3.0
131========================
132PLY-3.0 the first PLY release to support Python 3. However, backwards
133compatibility with Python 2.2 is still preserved. PLY provides dual
134Python 2/3 compatibility by restricting its implementation to a common
135subset of basic language features. You should not convert PLY using
1362to3--it is not necessary and may in fact break the implementation.
137
138Example
139=======

141Here is a simple example showing a PLY implementation of a calculator
142with variables.

249Bug Reports and Patches
250=======================
251My goal with PLY is to simply have a decent lex/yacc implementation
252for Python.  As a general rule, I don't spend huge amounts of time
253working on it unless I receive very specific bug reports and/or
254patches to fix problems. I also try to incorporate submitted feature
255requests and enhancements into each new version.  To contact me about
256bugs and/or new features, please send email to dave@dabeaz.com.
