library3.2.0pypypi✓ verified 87d ago

Rebulk is a Python library for defining simple search patterns in bulk and performing advanced matching on any string. It provides a clean API for building complex matchers with regular expressions, functional patterns, and chain filtering. Current version is 3.3.0, released in December 2023, with irregular release cadence.

Rebulk

✓ from rebulk import Rebulk

Create a Rebulk matcher, add string and regex patterns, and match against input.

from rebulk import Rebulk, Match rebulk = Rebulk() rebulk.string('hello') rebulk.regex(r'world') matches = rebulk.matches('hello world') for m in matches: print(m.value, m.span)

Debug

Known issues

breakingRegex support is disabled by default since v3.0.0. To enable regex matching, set REBULK_REGEX_ENABLED=1 environment variable before importing rebulk.

fix

Set environment variable: import os; os.environ['REBULK_REGEX_ENABLED'] = '1'

affects: >=3.0.0

breakingPython 2.7 and 3.4 support dropped in v3.0.0; Python 3.5 dropped in v3.1.0; Python 3.6 dropped in v3.2.0.

fix

Use Python 3.7 or later (Python 3.12 supported in v3.3.0).

affects: >=3.0.0

gotchaPatterns are evaluated in order, and later patterns can override earlier ones if they match same position. Use `exclude` or `priority` to control behavior.

fix

Understand pattern evaluation order: first added pattern wins in case of conflict unless priority is set.

affects: all

deprecatedThe REGEX_DISABLED environment variable was replaced by REBULK_REGEX_ENABLED in v3.0.0. Old variable is ignored.

fix

Use REBULK_REGEX_ENABLED instead of REGEX_DISABLED.

affects: >=3.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

AttributeError: module 'rebulk' has no attribute 'Match'

Imported Match from rebulk module incorrectly (e.g., import rebulk; rebulk.Match).

fix

Use: from rebulk import Match

Regex pattern '...' not matching even though regex module is installed.

Regex is disabled by default in Rebulk versions >=3.0.0.

fix

Set os.environ['REBULK_REGEX_ENABLED'] = '1' before importing rebulk.

rebulk.exceptions.PatternError: Unsupported pattern type

Using an unsupported pattern type (e.g., tuple without proper indicator).

fix

Use string, compiled regex, or callable for patterns.
