:mod:`classad` API Reference
============================
.. module:: classad
:platform: Unix, Windows, Mac OS X
:synopsis: Work with the ClassAd language
.. moduleauthor:: Brian Bockelman <bbockelm@cse.unl.edu>
This page is an exhaustive reference of the API exposed by the :mod:`classad`
module. It is not meant to be a tutorial for new users but rather a helpful
guide for those who already understand the basic usage of the module.
ClassAd Representation
----------------------
ClassAds are individually represented by the :class:`ClassAd` class.
Their attribute are key-value pairs, as in a standard Python dictionary.
The keys are strings, and the values may be either Python primitives
corresponding to ClassAd data types (string, bool, etc.) or :class:`ExprTree`
objects, which correspond to un-evaluated ClassAd expressions.
.. autoclass:: ClassAd
.. automethod:: ClassAd.eval
.. automethod:: ClassAd.lookup
.. automethod:: ClassAd.printOld
.. automethod:: ClassAd.printJson
.. automethod:: ClassAd.flatten
.. automethod:: ClassAd.matches
.. automethod:: ClassAd.symmetricMatch
.. automethod:: ClassAd.externalRefs
.. automethod:: ClassAd.internalRefs
.. automethod:: ClassAd.__eq__
.. automethod:: ClassAd.__ne__
.. autoclass:: ExprTree
.. automethod:: ExprTree.and_
.. automethod:: ExprTree.or_
.. automethod:: ExprTree.is_
.. automethod:: ExprTree.isnt_
.. automethod:: ExprTree.sameAs
.. automethod:: ExprTree.eval
.. automethod:: ExprTree.simplify
.. autoclass:: Value
Parsing and Creating ClassAds
-----------------------------
:mod:`classad` provides a variety of utility functions that can help you
construct ClassAd expressions and parse string representations of ClassAds.
.. autofunction:: parseAds
.. autofunction:: parseNext
.. autofunction:: parseOne
.. autofunction:: quote
.. autofunction:: unquote
.. autofunction:: Attribute
.. autofunction:: Function
.. autofunction:: Literal
.. autofunction:: lastError
.. autofunction:: register
.. autofunction:: registerLibrary
Parser Control
--------------
The behavior of :func:`parseAds`, :func:`parseNext`, and :func:`parseOne`
can be controlled by giving them different values of the :class:`Parser`
enumeration.
.. autoclass:: Parser
Utility Functions
-----------------
.. autofunction:: version
Exceptions
----------
For backwards-compatibility, the exceptions in this module inherit
from the built-in exceptions raised in earlier (pre-v8.9.9) versions.
.. autoclass:: ClassAdException
.. autoclass:: ClassAdEnumError
.. autoclass:: ClassAdEvaluationError
.. autoclass:: ClassAdInternalError
.. autoclass:: ClassAdOSError
.. autoclass:: ClassAdParseError
.. autoclass:: ClassAdTypeError
.. autoclass:: ClassAdValueError
Deprecated Functions
--------------------
The functions in this section are deprecated; new code should not use them
and existing code should be rewritten to use their replacements.
.. autofunction:: parse
.. autofunction:: parseOld
