pyparsing-3.2.2 (Python Module)

[Douglas R. Reno]

New point version

[Bruce Dubbs]

Version 3.2.2 - March, 2025

• Released cvt_pyparsing_pep8_names.py conversion utility to upgrade pyparsing-based programs and libraries that use legacy camelCase names to use the new PEP8-compliant snake_case method names. The converter can also be imported into other scripts as

from pyparsing.tools.cvt_pyparsing_pep8_names import pep8_converter

• Fixed bug in nested_expr where nested contents were stripped of whitespace when the default whitespace characters were cleared (raised in this StackOverflow question ​https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79327649). Also addressed bug in resolving PEP8 compliant argument name and legacy argument name.

• Fixed bug in rest_of_line and the underlying Regex class, in which matching a pattern that could match an empty string (such as ".*" or "[A-Z]*" would not raise a ParseException at or beyond the end of the input string. This could cause an infinite parsing loop when parsing rest_of_line at the end of the input string.

• Enhancements and extra input validation for pyparsing.util.make_compressed_re - see usage in examples/complex_chemical_formulas.py and result in the generated railroad diagram examples/complex_chemical_formulas_diagram.html. Properly escapes characters like "." and "*" that have special meaning in regular expressions.

• Fixed bug in one_of() to properly escape characters that are regular expression markers (such as '*', '+', '?', etc.) before building the internal regex.

• Better exception message for MatchFirst and Or expressions, showing all alternatives rather than just the first one.

• Added return type annotation of "-> None" for all __init__() methods, to satisfy mypy --strict type checking. PR submitted by FeRD, thank you!

• Added optional argument show_hidden to create_diagram to show elements that are used internally by pyparsing, but are not part of the actual parser grammar. For instance, the Tag class can insert values into the parsed results but it does not actually parse any input, so by default it is not included in a railroad diagram. By calling create_diagram with show_hidden = True, these internal elements will be included. (You can see this in the tag_metadata.py script in the examples directory.)

• Fixed bug in number_words.py example. Also added ebnf_number_words.py to demonstrate using the ebnf.py EBNF parser generator to build a similar parser directly from EBNF.

• Fixed syntax warning raised in bigquery_view_parser.py, invalid escape sequence "\s".

• Added support for Python 3.14.
