- ASTNG
- =====
- What's this ?
- -------------
- The aim of this module is to provide a common base representation of
- python source code for projects such as pychecker, pyreverse,
- pylint... Well, actually the development of this library is essentially
- governed by pylint's needs.
- It provides a compatible representation which comes from the `_ast` module.
- It rebuilds the tree generated by the builtin _ast module by recursively
- walking down the AST and building an extended ast (let's call it astng ;). The
- new node classes have additional methods and attributes for different usages.
- They include some support for static inference and local name scopes.
- Furthermore, astng builds partial trees by inspecting living objects.
- Main modules are:
- * `bases`, `node_classses` and `scoped_nodes` contain the classes for the
- different type of nodes of the tree.
- * the `manager` contains a high level object to get astng trees from
- source files and living objects. It maintains a cache of previously
- constructed tree for quick access
- Installation
- ------------
- Extract the tarball, jump into the created directory and run ::
- python setup.py install
- For installation options, see ::
- python setup.py install --help
- If you have any questions, please mail the
- python-project@lists.logilab.org mailing list for support. See
- http://lists.logilab.org/mailman/listinfo/python-projects for
- subscription information and archives.
- Test
- ----
- Tests are in the 'test' subdirectory. To launch the whole tests suite
- at once, you may use the 'pytest' utility from logilab-common (simply
- type 'pytest' from within this directory) or if you're running python
- >= 2.7, using discover, for instance::
- python -m unittest discover -p "unittest*.py"
