:mod:`shlex` --- Simple lexical analysis
|
||||
========================================
|
||||
|

.. module:: shlex
|
||||
:synopsis: Simple lexical analysis for Unix shell-like languages.

|
||||
|
||||
**Source code:** :source:`Lib/shlex.py`
|
||||
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
The :class:`~shlex.shlex` class makes it easy to write lexical analyzers for
|
||||
simple syntaxes resembling that of the Unix shell. This will often be useful
|
||||
for writing minilanguages, (for example, in run control files for Python
|
||||
applications) or for parsing quoted strings.
|
||||
|
||||
The :mod:`shlex` module defines the following functions:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. function:: split(s, comments=False, posix=True)
|
||||
|
||||
Split the string *s* using shell-like syntax. If *comments* is :const:`False`
|
||||
(the default), the parsing of comments in the given string will be disabled
|
||||
(setting the :attr:`~shlex.commenters` attribute of the
|
||||
:class:`~shlex.shlex` instance to the empty string). This function operates
|
||||
in POSIX mode by default, but uses non-POSIX mode if the *posix* argument is
|
||||
false.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
Since the :func:`split` function instantiates a :class:`~shlex.shlex`
|
||||
instance, passing ``None`` for *s* will read the string to split from
|
||||
standard input.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. function:: quote(s)
|
||||
|
||||
Return a shell-escaped version of the string *s*. The returned value is a
|
||||
string that can safely be used as one token in a shell command line, for
|
||||
cases where you cannot use a list.
|
||||
|
||||
This idiom would be unsafe:
|
||||
|
||||
>>> filename = 'somefile; rm -rf ~'
|
||||
>>> command = 'ls -l {}'.format(filename)
|
||||
>>> print(command) # executed by a shell: boom!
|
||||
ls -l somefile; rm -rf ~
|
||||
|
||||
:func:`quote` lets you plug the security hole:
|
||||
|
||||
>>> from shlex import quote
|
||||
>>> command = 'ls -l {}'.format(quote(filename))
|
||||
>>> print(command)
|
||||
ls -l 'somefile; rm -rf ~'
|
||||
>>> remote_command = 'ssh home {}'.format(quote(command))
|
||||
>>> print(remote_command)
|
||||
ssh home 'ls -l '"'"'somefile; rm -rf ~'"'"''
|
||||
|
||||
The quoting is compatible with UNIX shells and with :func:`split`:
|
||||
|
||||
>>> from shlex import split
|
||||
>>> remote_command = split(remote_command)
|
||||
>>> remote_command
|
||||
['ssh', 'home', "ls -l 'somefile; rm -rf ~'"]
|
||||
>>> command = split(remote_command[-1])
|
||||
>>> command
|
||||
['ls', '-l', 'somefile; rm -rf ~']
|
||||
|
||||
.. versionadded:: 3.3
|
||||
|
||||
The :mod:`shlex` module defines the following class:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. class:: shlex(instream=None, infile=None, posix=False, punctuation_chars=False)
|
||||
|
||||
A :class:`~shlex.shlex` instance or subclass instance is a lexical analyzer
|
||||
object. The initialization argument, if present, specifies where to read
|
||||
characters from. It must be a file-/stream-like object with
|
||||
:meth:`~io.TextIOBase.read` and :meth:`~io.TextIOBase.readline` methods, or
|
||||
a string. If no argument is given, input will be taken from ``sys.stdin``.
|
||||
The second optional argument is a filename string, which sets the initial
|
||||
value of the :attr:`~shlex.infile` attribute. If the *instream*
|
||||
argument is omitted or equal to ``sys.stdin``, this second argument
|
||||
defaults to "stdin". The *posix* argument defines the operational mode:
|
||||
when *posix* is not true (default), the :class:`~shlex.shlex` instance will
|
||||
operate in compatibility mode. When operating in POSIX mode,
|
||||
:class:`~shlex.shlex` will try to be as close as possible to the POSIX shell
|
||||
parsing rules. The *punctuation_chars* argument provides a way to make the
|
||||
behaviour even closer to how real shells parse. This can take a number of
|
||||
values: the default value, ``False``, preserves the behaviour seen under
|
||||
Python 3.5 and earlier. If set to ``True``, then parsing of the characters
|
||||
``();<>|&`` is changed: any run of these characters (considered punctuation
|
||||
characters) is returned as a single token. If set to a non-empty string of
|
||||
characters, those characters will be used as the punctuation characters. Any
|
||||
characters in the :attr:`wordchars` attribute that appear in
|
||||
*punctuation_chars* will be removed from :attr:`wordchars`. See
|
||||
:ref:`improved-shell-compatibility` for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
.. versionchanged:: 3.6
|
||||
The *punctuation_chars* parameter was added.
|
||||
|
||||

.. _shlex-objects:
|
||||
|
||||
shlex Objects
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
A :class:`~shlex.shlex` instance has the following methods:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: shlex.get_token()
|
||||
|
||||
Return a token. If tokens have been stacked using :meth:`push_token`, pop a
|
||||
token off the stack. Otherwise, read one from the input stream. If reading
|
||||
encounters an immediate end-of-file, :attr:`eof` is returned (the empty
|
||||
string (``''``) in non-POSIX mode, and ``None`` in POSIX mode).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: shlex.push_token(str)
|
||||
|
||||
Push the argument onto the token stack.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: shlex.read_token()
|
||||
|
||||
Read a raw token. Ignore the pushback stack, and do not interpret source
|
||||
requests. (This is not ordinarily a useful entry point, and is documented here
|
||||
only for the sake of completeness.)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: shlex.sourcehook(filename)
|
||||
|
||||
When :class:`~shlex.shlex` detects a source request (see :attr:`source`
|
||||
below) this method is given the following token as argument, and expected
|
||||
to return a tuple consisting of a filename and an open file-like object.
|
||||
|
||||
Normally, this method first strips any quotes off the argument. If the result
|
||||
is an absolute pathname, or there was no previous source request in effect, or
|
||||
the previous source was a stream (such as ``sys.stdin``), the result is left
|
||||
alone. Otherwise, if the result is a relative pathname, the directory part of
|
||||
the name of the file immediately before it on the source inclusion stack is
|
||||
prepended (this behavior is like the way the C preprocessor handles ``#include
|
||||
"file.h"``).
|
||||
|
||||
The result of the manipulations is treated as a filename, and returned as the
|
||||
first component of the tuple, with :func:`open` called on it to yield the second
|
||||
component. (Note: this is the reverse of the order of arguments in instance
|
||||
initialization!)
|
||||
|
||||
This hook is exposed so that you can use it to implement directory search paths,
|
||||
addition of file extensions, and other namespace hacks. There is no
|
||||
corresponding 'close' hook, but a shlex instance will call the
|
||||
:meth:`~io.IOBase.close` method of the sourced input stream when it returns
|
||||
EOF.
|
||||
|
||||
For more explicit control of source stacking, use the :meth:`push_source` and
|
||||
:meth:`pop_source` methods.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: shlex.push_source(newstream, newfile=None)
|
||||
|
||||
Push an input source stream onto the input stack. If the filename argument is
|
||||
specified it will later be available for use in error messages. This is the
|
||||
same method used internally by the :meth:`sourcehook` method.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: shlex.pop_source()
|
||||
|
||||
Pop the last-pushed input source from the input stack. This is the same method
|
||||
used internally when the lexer reaches EOF on a stacked input stream.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. method:: shlex.error_leader(infile=None, lineno=None)
|
||||
|
||||
This method generates an error message leader in the format of a Unix C compiler
|
||||
error label; the format is ``'"%s", line %d: '``, where the ``%s`` is replaced
|
||||
with the name of the current source file and the ``%d`` with the current input
|
||||
line number (the optional arguments can be used to override these).
|
||||
|
||||
This convenience is provided to encourage :mod:`shlex` users to generate error
|
||||
messages in the standard, parseable format understood by Emacs and other Unix
|
||||
tools.
|
||||
|
||||
Instances of :class:`~shlex.shlex` subclasses have some public instance
|
||||
variables which either control lexical analysis or can be used for debugging:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.commenters
|
||||
|
||||
The string of characters that are recognized as comment beginners. All
|
||||
characters from the comment beginner to end of line are ignored. Includes just
|
||||
``'#'`` by default.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.wordchars
|
||||
|
||||
The string of characters that will accumulate into multi-character tokens. By
|
||||
default, includes all ASCII alphanumerics and underscore. In POSIX mode, the
|
||||
accented characters in the Latin-1 set are also included. If
|
||||
:attr:`punctuation_chars` is not empty, the characters ``~-./*?=``, which can
|
||||
appear in filename specifications and command line parameters, will also be
|
||||
included in this attribute, and any characters which appear in
|
||||
``punctuation_chars`` will be removed from ``wordchars`` if they are present
|
||||
there.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.whitespace
|
||||
|
||||
Characters that will be considered whitespace and skipped. Whitespace bounds
|
||||
tokens. By default, includes space, tab, linefeed and carriage-return.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.escape
|
||||
|
||||
Characters that will be considered as escape. This will be only used in POSIX
|
||||
mode, and includes just ``'\'`` by default.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.quotes
|
||||
|
||||
Characters that will be considered string quotes. The token accumulates until
|
||||
the same quote is encountered again (thus, different quote types protect each
|
||||
other as in the shell.) By default, includes ASCII single and double quotes.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.escapedquotes
|
||||
|
||||
Characters in :attr:`quotes` that will interpret escape characters defined in
|
||||
:attr:`escape`. This is only used in POSIX mode, and includes just ``'"'`` by
|
||||
default.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.whitespace_split
|
||||
|
||||
If ``True``, tokens will only be split in whitespaces. This is useful, for
|
||||
example, for parsing command lines with :class:`~shlex.shlex`, getting
|
||||
tokens in a similar way to shell arguments. If this attribute is ``True``,
|
||||
:attr:`punctuation_chars` will have no effect, and splitting will happen
|
||||
only on whitespaces. When using :attr:`punctuation_chars`, which is
|
||||
intended to provide parsing closer to that implemented by shells, it is
|
||||
advisable to leave ``whitespace_split`` as ``False`` (the default value).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.infile
|
||||
|
||||
The name of the current input file, as initially set at class instantiation time
|
||||
or stacked by later source requests. It may be useful to examine this when
|
||||
constructing error messages.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.instream
|
||||
|
||||
The input stream from which this :class:`~shlex.shlex` instance is reading
|
||||
characters.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.source
|
||||
|
||||
This attribute is ``None`` by default. If you assign a string to it, that
|
||||
string will be recognized as a lexical-level inclusion request similar to the
|
||||
``source`` keyword in various shells. That is, the immediately following token
|
||||
will be opened as a filename and input will be taken from that stream until
|
||||
EOF, at which point the :meth:`~io.IOBase.close` method of that stream will be
|
||||
called and the input source will again become the original input stream. Source
|
||||
requests may be stacked any number of levels deep.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.debug
|
||||
|
||||
If this attribute is numeric and ``1`` or more, a :class:`~shlex.shlex`
|
||||
instance will print verbose progress output on its behavior. If you need
|
||||
to use this, you can read the module source code to learn the details.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.lineno
|
||||
|
||||
Source line number (count of newlines seen so far plus one).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.token
|
||||
|
||||
The token buffer. It may be useful to examine this when catching exceptions.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.eof
|
||||
|
||||
Token used to determine end of file. This will be set to the empty string
|
||||
(``''``), in non-POSIX mode, and to ``None`` in POSIX mode.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
.. attribute:: shlex.punctuation_chars
|
||||
|
||||
Characters that will be considered punctuation. Runs of punctuation
|
||||
characters will be returned as a single token. However, note that no
|
||||
semantic validity checking will be performed: for example, '>>>' could be
|
||||
returned as a token, even though it may not be recognised as such by shells.
|
||||

|
||||
.. _shlex-parsing-rules:
|
||||
|
||||
Parsing Rules
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
When operating in non-POSIX mode, :class:`~shlex.shlex` will try to obey to the
|
||||
following rules.
|
||||
|
||||
* Quote characters are not recognized within words (``Do"Not"Separate`` is
|
||||
parsed as the single word ``Do"Not"Separate``);
|
||||
|
||||
* Escape characters are not recognized;
|
||||
|
||||
* Enclosing characters in quotes preserve the literal value of all characters
|
||||
within the quotes;
|
||||
|
||||
* Closing quotes separate words (``"Do"Separate`` is parsed as ``"Do"`` and
|
||||
``Separate``);
|
||||
|
||||
* If :attr:`~shlex.whitespace_split` is ``False``, any character not
|
||||
declared to be a word character, whitespace, or a quote will be returned as
|
||||
a single-character token. If it is ``True``, :class:`~shlex.shlex` will only
|
||||
split words in whitespaces;
|
||||
|
||||
* EOF is signaled with an empty string (``''``);
|
||||
|
||||
* It's not possible to parse empty strings, even if quoted.
|
||||
|
||||
When operating in POSIX mode, :class:`~shlex.shlex` will try to obey to the
|
||||
following parsing rules.
|
||||
|
||||
* Quotes are stripped out, and do not separate words (``"Do"Not"Separate"`` is
|
||||
parsed as the single word ``DoNotSeparate``);
|
||||
|
||||
* Non-quoted escape characters (e.g. ``'\'``) preserve the literal value of the
|
||||
next character that follows;
|
||||
|
||||
* Enclosing characters in quotes which are not part of
|
||||
:attr:`~shlex.escapedquotes` (e.g. ``"'"``) preserve the literal value
|
||||
of all characters within the quotes;
|
||||
|
||||
* Enclosing characters in quotes which are part of
|
||||
:attr:`~shlex.escapedquotes` (e.g. ``'"'``) preserves the literal value
|
||||
of all characters within the quotes, with the exception of the characters
|
||||
mentioned in :attr:`~shlex.escape`. The escape characters retain its
|
||||
special meaning only when followed by the quote in use, or the escape
|
||||
character itself. Otherwise the escape character will be considered a
|
||||
normal character.
|
||||
|
||||
* EOF is signaled with a :const:`None` value;
|
||||
|
||||
* Quoted empty strings (``''``) are allowed.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _improved-shell-compatibility:
|
||||
|
||||
Improved Compatibility with Shells
|
||||
----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
.. versionadded:: 3.6
|
||||
|
||||
The :class:`shlex` class provides compatibility with the parsing performed by
|
||||
common Unix shells like ``bash``, ``dash``, and ``sh``. To take advantage of
|
||||
this compatibility, specify the ``punctuation_chars`` argument in the
|
||||
constructor. This defaults to ``False``, which preserves pre-3.6 behaviour.
|
||||
However, if it is set to ``True``, then parsing of the characters ``();<>|&``
|
||||
is changed: any run of these characters is returned as a single token. While
|
||||
this is short of a full parser for shells (which would be out of scope for the
|
||||
standard library, given the multiplicity of shells out there), it does allow
|
||||
you to perform processing of command lines more easily than you could
|
||||
otherwise. To illustrate, you can see the difference in the following snippet:
|
||||
|
||||
.. doctest::
|
||||
:options: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
|
||||
|
||||
>>> import shlex
|
||||
>>> text = "a && b; c && d || e; f >'abc'; (def \"ghi\")"
|
||||
>>> list(shlex.shlex(text))
|
||||
['a', '&', '&', 'b', ';', 'c', '&', '&', 'd', '|', '|', 'e', ';', 'f', '>',
|
||||
"'abc'", ';', '(', 'def', '"ghi"', ')']
|
||||
>>> list(shlex.shlex(text, punctuation_chars=True))
|
||||
['a', '&&', 'b', ';', 'c', '&&', 'd', '||', 'e', ';', 'f', '>', "'abc'",
|
||||
';', '(', 'def', '"ghi"', ')']
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, tokens will be returned which are not valid for shells, and you'll
|
||||
need to implement your own error checks on the returned tokens.
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of passing ``True`` as the value for the punctuation_chars parameter,
|
||||
you can pass a string with specific characters, which will be used to determine
|
||||
which characters constitute punctuation. For example::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> import shlex
|
||||
>>> s = shlex.shlex("a && b || c", punctuation_chars="|")
|
||||
>>> list(s)
|
||||
['a', '&', '&', 'b', '||', 'c']
|
||||
|
||||
.. note:: When ``punctuation_chars`` is specified, the :attr:`~shlex.wordchars`
|
||||
attribute is augmented with the characters ``~-./*?=``. That is because these
|
||||
characters can appear in file names (including wildcards) and command-line
|
||||
arguments (e.g. ``--color=auto``). Hence::
|
||||
|
||||
>>> import shlex
|
||||
>>> s = shlex.shlex('~/a && b-c --color=auto || d *.py?',
|
||||
... punctuation_chars=True)
|
||||
>>> list(s)
|
||||
['~/a', '&&', 'b-c', '--color=auto', '||', 'd', '*.py?']
|
||||
|
||||
For best effect, ``punctuation_chars`` should be set in conjunction with
|
||||
``posix=True``. (Note that ``posix=False`` is the default for
|
||||
:class:`~shlex.shlex`.)
