Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : python-esmre Version : 0.3.1 Upstream Author : Will Harris <whar...@gmail.com> * URL : https://pypi.python.org/pypi/esmre * License : LGPL Programming Lang: Python Description : Regular expression accelerator for Python
Esmre is a Python module that can be used to speed up the execution of a large collection of regular expressions. It works by building a index of compulsory substrings from a collection of regular expressions, which it uses to quickly exclude those expressions which trivially do not match each input. . The esmre module builds on the simpler string matching facilities of the esm module, which wraps a C implementation some of the algorithms described in Aho's and Corasick's paper on efficient string matching [Aho, A.V, and Corasick, M. J. Efficient String Matching: An Aid to Bibliographic Search. Comm. ACM 18:6 (June 1975), 333-340]. Some minor modifications have been made to the algorithms in the paper and one algorithm is missing (for now), but there is enough to implement a quick string matching index. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
