docutils.utils.code_analyzer.Lexer

class documentation

class Lexer(object): (source)

Parse code lines and yield "classified" tokens.

Arguments

code -- string of source code to parse, language -- formal language the code is written in, tokennames -- either 'long', 'short', or 'none' (see below).

Merge subsequent tokens of the same token-type.

Iterating over an instance yields the tokens as (tokentype, value) tuples. The value of tokennames configures the naming of the tokentype:

'long': downcased full token type name, 'short': short name defined by pygments.token.STANDARD_TYPES

(= class argument used in pygments html output),

'none': skip lexical analysis.

Method	`__init__`	Set up a lexical analyzer for `code` in `language`.
Method	`__iter__`	Parse self.code and yield "classified" tokens.
Method	`merge`	Merge subsequent tokens of same token-type.
Instance Variable	`code`	Undocumented

Instance Variable	`tokennames`	Undocumented

def __init__(self, code, language, tokennames='short'): (source)

Set up a lexical analyzer for code in language.

def __iter__(self): (source)

Parse self.code and yield "classified" tokens.

def merge(self, tokens): (source)

Merge subsequent tokens of same token-type.

Also strip the final newline (added by pygments).
