class documentation

class RegexLexerMeta(LexerMeta):

Known subclasses: pygments.lexer.ProfilingRegexLexerMeta

Metaclass for RegexLexer, creates the self._tokens attribute from self.tokens on the first instantiation.

Method	`__call__`	Instantiate cls after preprocessing its token definitions.
Method	`_process_new_state`	Preprocess the state transition action of a token definition.
Method	`_process_regex`	Preprocess the regular expression component of a token definition.
Method	`_process_state`	Preprocess a single state definition.
Method	`_process_token`	Preprocess the token component of a token definition.
Method	`get_tokendefs`	Merge tokens from superclasses in MRO order, returning a single tokendef dictionary.
Method	`process_tokendef`	Preprocess a dictionary of token definitions.

Inherited from LexerMeta:

Method __new__ Undocumented

def __call__(cls, *args, **kwds):

Instantiate cls after preprocessing its token definitions.

def _process_new_state(cls, new_state, unprocessed, processed):

Preprocess the state transition action of a token definition.

def _process_regex(cls, regex, rflags, state):

overridden in pygments.lexer.ProfilingRegexLexerMeta

Preprocess the regular expression component of a token definition.

def _process_state(cls, unprocessed, processed, state):

Preprocess a single state definition.

def _process_token(cls, token):

Preprocess the token component of a token definition.

def get_tokendefs(cls):

Merge tokens from superclasses in MRO order, returning a single tokendef dictionary.

Any state that is not defined by a subclass will be inherited automatically. States that are defined by subclasses will, by default, override that state in the superclass. If a subclass wishes to inherit definitions from a superclass, it can use the special value "inherit", which will cause the superclass' state definition to be included at that point in the state.

def process_tokendef(cls, name, tokendefs=None):

Preprocess a dictionary of token definitions.
