Branch: CURRENT, Version: 3.99.9nb2, Package name: py39-grako-3.99.9nb2, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Grako (for grammar compiler) is a tool that takes grammars in a variation of
EBNF as input, and outputs memoizing (Packrat) PEG parsers in Python.

Grako can also compile a grammar stored in a string into a Grammar object that
can be used to parse any given input, much like the re module does with
regular expressions.

Grako is different from other PEG parser generators:
* Generated parsers use Python's very efficient exception-handling system to
backtrack. Grako generated parsers simply assert what must be parsed. There
are no complicated if-then-else sequences for decision making or
backtracking. Memoization allows going over the same input sequence several
times in linear time.
* Positive and negative lookaheads, and the cut element (with its cleaning of
the memoization cache) allow for additional, hand-crafted optimizations at
the grammar level.
* Delegation to Python's re module for lexemes allows for (Perl-like) powerful
and efficient lexical analysis.
* The use of Python's context managers considerably reduces the size of the
generated parsers for code clarity, and enhanced CPU-cache hits.
* Include files, rule inheritance, and rule inclusion give Grako grammars
considerable expressive power.
* Automatic generation of Abstract Syntax Trees and Object Models, along with
Model Walkers and Code Generators make analysis and translation approachable.

Log message:
python: egg.mk: add USE_PKG_RESOURCES flag

This flag should be set for packages that import pkg_resources
and thus need setuptools after the build step.

Set this flag for packages that need it and bump PKGREVISION.

Log message:
*: bump PKGREVISION for egg.mk users

They now have a tool dependency on py-setuptools instead of a DEPENDS
