32. Python compiler package¶

Deprecated since version 2.6: The compiler package has been removed in Python 3.

The Python compiler package is a tool for analyzing Python source code and generating Python bytecode. The compiler contains libraries to generate an abstract syntax tree from Python source code and to generate Python bytecode from the tree.

The compiler package is a Python source to bytecode translator written in Python. It uses the built-in parser and standard parser module to generate a concrete syntax tree. This tree is used to generate an abstract syntax tree (AST) and then Python bytecode.

The full functionality of the package duplicates the built-in compiler provided with the Python interpreter. It is intended to match its behavior almost exactly. Why implement another compiler that does the same thing? The package is useful for a variety of purposes. It can be modified more easily than the built-in compiler. The AST it generates is useful for analyzing Python source code.

This chapter explains how the various components of the compiler package work. It blends reference material with a tutorial.

32.1. The basic interface¶

The top-level of the package defines four functions. If you import compiler, you will get these functions and a collection of modules contained in the package.

compiler.parse(buf)¶: Returns an abstract syntax tree for the Python source code in buf. The function raises SyntaxError if there is an error in the source code. The return value is a compiler.ast.Module instance that contains the tree.

compiler.parseFile(path)¶: Return an abstract syntax tree for the Python source code in the file specified by path. It is equivalent to parse(open(path).read()).

compiler.walk(ast, visitor[, verbose])¶: Do a pre-order walk over the abstract syntax tree ast. Call the appropriate method on the visitor instance for each node encountered.

compiler.compile(source, filename, mode, flags=None, dont_inherit=None)¶

Compile the string source, a Python module, statement or expression, into a code object that can be executed by the exec statement or eval(). This function is a replacement for the built-in compile() function.

The filename will be used for run-time error messages.

The mode must be ‘exec’ to compile a module, ‘single’ to compile a single (interactive) statement, or ‘eval’ to compile an expression.

The flags and dont_inherit arguments affect future-related statements, but are not supported yet.

compiler.compileFile(source)¶: Compiles the file source and generates a .pyc file.

The compiler package contains the following modules: ast, consts, future, misc, pyassem, pycodegen, symbols, transformer, and visitor.

32.2. Limitations¶

There are some problems with the error checking of the compiler package. The interpreter detects syntax errors in two distinct phases. One set of errors is detected by the interpreter’s parser, the other set by the compiler. The compiler package relies on the interpreter’s parser, so it get the first phases of error checking for free. It implements the second phase itself, and that implementation is incomplete. For example, the compiler package does not raise an error if a name appears more than once in an argument list: def f(x, x): ...

A future version of the compiler should fix these problems.

32.3. Python Abstract Syntax¶

The compiler.ast module defines an abstract syntax for Python. In the abstract syntax tree, each node represents a syntactic construct. The root of the tree is Module object.

The abstract syntax offers a higher level interface to parsed Python source code. The parser module and the compiler written in C for the Python interpreter use a concrete syntax tree. The concrete syntax is tied closely to the grammar description used for the Python parser. Instead of a single node for a construct, there are often several levels of nested nodes that are introduced by Python’s precedence rules.

The abstract syntax tree is created by the compiler.transformer module. The transformer relies on the built-in Python parser to generate a concrete syntax tree. It generates an abstract syntax tree from the concrete tree.

The transformer module was created by Greg Stein and Bill Tutt for an experimental Python-to-C compiler. The current version contains a number of modifications and improvements, but the basic form of the abstract syntax and of the transformer are due to Stein and Tutt.

32.3.1. AST Nodes¶

The compiler.ast module is generated from a text file that describes each node type and its elements. Each node type is represented as a class that inherits from the abstract base class compiler.ast.Node and defines a set of named attributes for child nodes.

class compiler.ast.Node¶

The Node instances are created automatically by the parser generator. The recommended interface for specific Node instances is to use the public attributes to access child nodes. A public attribute may be bound to a single node or to a sequence of nodes, depending on the Node type. For example, the bases attribute of the Class node, is bound to a list of base class nodes, and the doc attribute is bound to a single node.

Each Node instance has a lineno attribute which may be None. XXX Not sure what the rules are for which nodes will have a useful lineno.

All Node objects offer the following methods:

getChildren()¶: Returns a flattened list of the child nodes and objects in the order they occur. Specifically, the order of the nodes is the order in which they appear in the Python grammar. Not all of the children are Node instances. The names of functions and classes, for example, are plain strings.

getChildNodes()¶: Returns a flattened list of the child nodes in the order they occur. This method is like getChildren(), except that it only returns those children that are Node instances.

Two examples illustrate the general structure of Node classes. The while statement is defined by the following grammar production:

while_stmt:     "while" expression ":" suite
               ["else" ":" suite]

The While node has three attributes: test, body, and else_. (If the natural name for an attribute is also a Python reserved word, it can’t be used as an attribute name. An underscore is appended to the word to make it a legal identifier, hence else_ instead of else.)

The if statement is more complicated because it can include several tests.

if_stmt: 'if' test ':' suite ('elif' test ':' suite)* ['else' ':' suite]

The If node only defines two attributes: tests and else_. The tests attribute is a sequence of test expression, consequent body pairs. There is one pair for each if/elif clause. The first element of the pair is the test expression. The second elements is a Stmt node that contains the code to execute if the test is true.

The getChildren() method of If returns a flat list of child nodes. If there are three if/elif clauses and no else clause, then getChildren() will return a list of six elements: the first test expression, the first Stmt, the second text expression, etc.

The following table lists each of the Node subclasses defined in compiler.ast and each of the public attributes available on their instances. The values of most of the attributes are themselves Node instances or sequences of instances. When the value is something other than an instance, the type is noted in the comment. The attributes are listed in the order in which they are returned by getChildren() and getChildNodes().

32.3.2. Assignment nodes¶

There is a collection of nodes used to represent assignments. Each assignment statement in the source code becomes a single Assign node in the AST. The nodes attribute is a list that contains a node for each assignment target. This is necessary because assignment can be chained, e.g. a = b = 2. Each Node in the list will be one of the following classes: AssAttr, AssList, AssName, or AssTuple.

Each target assignment node will describe the kind of object being assigned to: AssName for a simple name, e.g. a = 1. AssAttr for an attribute assigned, e.g. a.x = 1. AssList and AssTuple for list and tuple expansion respectively, e.g. a, b, c = a_tuple.

The target assignment nodes also have a flags attribute that indicates whether the node is being used for assignment or in a delete statement. The AssName is also used to represent a delete statement, e.g. del x.

When an expression contains several attribute references, an assignment or delete statement will contain only one AssAttr node – for the final attribute reference. The other attribute references will be represented as Getattr nodes in the expr attribute of the AssAttr instance.

32.3.3. Examples¶

This section shows several simple examples of ASTs for Python source code. The examples demonstrate how to use the parse() function, what the repr of an AST looks like, and how to access attributes of an AST node.

The first module defines a single function. Assume it is stored in doublelib.py.

"""This is an example module.

This is the docstring.
"""

def double(x):
    "Return twice the argument"
    return x * 2

In the interactive interpreter session below, I have reformatted the long AST reprs for readability. The AST reprs use unqualified class names. If you want to create an instance from a repr, you must import the class names from the compiler.ast module.

>>> import compiler
>>> mod = compiler.parseFile("doublelib.py")
>>> mod
Module('This is an example module.\n\nThis is the docstring.\n',
       Stmt([Function(None, 'double', ['x'], [], 0,
                      'Return twice the argument',
                      Stmt([Return(Mul((Name('x'), Const(2))))]))]))
>>> from compiler.ast import *
>>> Module('This is an example module.\n\nThis is the docstring.\n',
...    Stmt([Function(None, 'double', ['x'], [], 0,
...                   'Return twice the argument',
...                   Stmt([Return(Mul((Name('x'), Const(2))))]))]))
Module('This is an example module.\n\nThis is the docstring.\n',
       Stmt([Function(None, 'double', ['x'], [], 0,
                      'Return twice the argument',
                      Stmt([Return(Mul((Name('x'), Const(2))))]))]))
>>> mod.doc
'This is an example module.\n\nThis is the docstring.\n'
>>> for node in mod.node.nodes:
...     print node
...
Function(None, 'double', ['x'], [], 0, 'Return twice the argument',
         Stmt([Return(Mul((Name('x'), Const(2))))]))
>>> func = mod.node.nodes[0]
>>> func.code
Stmt([Return(Mul((Name('x'), Const(2))))])

32.4. Using Visitors to Walk ASTs¶

The visitor pattern is ... The compiler package uses a variant on the visitor pattern that takes advantage of Python’s introspection features to eliminate the need for much of the visitor’s infrastructure.

The classes being visited do not need to be programmed to accept visitors. The visitor need only define visit methods for classes it is specifically interested in; a default visit method can handle the rest.

XXX The magic visit() method for visitors.

compiler.visitor.walk(tree, visitor[, verbose])¶

class compiler.visitor.ASTVisitor¶

The ASTVisitor is responsible for walking over the tree in the correct order. A walk begins with a call to preorder(). For each node, it checks the visitor argument to preorder() for a method named ‘visitNodeType,’ where NodeType is the name of the node’s class, e.g. for a While node a visitWhile() would be called. If the method exists, it is called with the node as its first argument.

The visitor method for a particular node type can control how child nodes are visited during the walk. The ASTVisitor modifies the visitor argument by adding a visit method to the visitor; this method can be used to visit a particular child node. If no visitor is found for a particular node type, the default() method is called.

ASTVisitor objects have the following methods:

XXX describe extra arguments

default(node[, ...])¶

dispatch(node[, ...])¶

preorder(tree, visitor)¶

32.5. Bytecode Generation¶

The code generator is a visitor that emits bytecodes. Each visit method can call the emit() method to emit a new bytecode. The basic code generator is specialized for modules, classes, and functions. An assembler converts that emitted instructions to the low-level bytecode format. It handles things like generation of constant lists of code objects and calculation of jump offsets.
