Here are some common low-level expressions that may be useful in
jump-starting parser development:
- numeric forms (:class:`integers<integer>`, :class:`reals<real>`,
:class:`scientific notation<sci_real>`)
- common :class:`programming identifiers<identifier>`
- network addresses (:class:`MAC<mac_address>`,
:class:`IPv4<ipv4_address>`, :class:`IPv6<ipv6_address>`)
- ISO8601 :class:`dates<iso8601_date>` and
:class:`datetime<iso8601_datetime>`
- :class:`UUID<uuid>`
- :class:`comma-separated list<comma_separated_list>`
Parse actions:
- :class:`convertToInteger`
- :class:`convertToFloat`
- :class:`convertToDate`
- :class:`convertToDatetime`
- :class:`stripHTMLTags`
- :class:`upcaseTokens`
- :class:`downcaseTokens`

Helper to create a parse action for converting parsed
datetime string to Python datetime.datetime
Params -
- fmt - format to be passed to datetime.strptime (default= ``"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%f"``)
Example::
dt_expr = pyparsing_common.iso8601_datetime.copy()
dt_expr.setParseAction(pyparsing_common.convertToDatetime())
print(dt_expr.parseString("1999-12-31T23:59:59.999"))
prints::
[datetime.datetime(1999, 12, 31, 23, 59, 59, 999000)]
