A concrete syntax tree parser and serializer library for Python that preserves many aspects of Python's abstract syntax tree
https://libcst.readthedocs.io/
There's a lot of different places tuples can get used, and `Element`/`StarredElement` require some tricky handling of commas, so this took a while. Hopefully, this work should make `List` easy to implement. `dictsetmaker` and comprehensions are still going to be a pain though... Along the way, I found out that `Element`/`StarredElement`'s `whitespace_after` wasn't needed, because the tuple's parenthesis (if they exist) or parent node would be a better owner anyways, so that's removed in this commit. |

TODO: Add documentation.
Getting Started
Examining a sample tree
To examine the tree that is parsed from a particular file, do the following:
python -m libcst.tool print <some_py_file.py>
Development
Start by setting up and activating a virtualenv:
git clone git@github.com:Instagram/LibCST.git libcst
cd libcst
python3 -m venv ../libcst-env/ # just an example, put this wherever you want
source ../libcst-env/bin/activate
pip install --upgrade pip # optional, if you have an old system version of pip
pip install -r requirements.txt -r requirements-dev.txt
# If you're done with the virtualenv, you can leave it by running:
deactivate
Auto-formatting code with isort and Black
We use isort and black to format code. To format changes to be conformant, run the following in the root:
isort -q -y && black libcst/
Running tests
To run all tests, do the following in the root:
python3 setup.py test
Verifying types with Pyre
To verify types for the library, do the following in the root:
pyre check
