Since these projects are external, depending on the functionality they are free-to-roll their own parser implementations or make hacks to pass away things. Or fork the Grammar/python.gram to preserve all tokens and generate a Python parser from it. > If people are interested in using ast.parse extensions as a replacement for > lib2to3, I suggest discussing at I don't quite get what you are proposing here, >I propose implementing an optional pass over the parse tree that records >lib2to3's "prefix" with each leaf node. The interface would be something like: How would you do that? By augmenting the AST with the information retrieved from tokens? If so, check this out; https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/blob/master/leo/core/leoAst.py and asttokens. Also, please move the discussion to somewhere else (like discuss.python.org etc.) since this is not the ideal place to discuss and people might be distracted! (feel free to cc me where you move the discussion) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36541> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
