============================================
 TGrep search implementation for NLTK trees
============================================

This module supports TGrep2 syntax for matching parts of NLTK Trees.
Note that many tgrep operators require the tree passed to be a
``ParentedTree``.

- `Tgrep2 manual <http://tedlab.mit.edu/~dr/Tgrep2/tgrep2.pdf>`_
- `Tgrep2 source <http://tedlab.mit.edu/~dr/Tgrep2/>`_

Usage
=====

>>> from nltk.tree import ParentedTree
>>> from nltk.tgrep import tgrep_nodes, tgrep_positions
>>> tree = ParentedTree.fromstring('(S (NP (DT the) (JJ big) (NN dog)) (VP bit) (NP (DT a) (NN cat)))')
>>> list(tgrep_nodes('NN', [tree]))
[[ParentedTree('NN', ['dog']), ParentedTree('NN', ['cat'])]]
>>> list(tgrep_positions('NN', [tree]))
[[(0, 2), (2, 1)]]
>>> list(tgrep_nodes('DT', [tree]))
[[ParentedTree('DT', ['the']), ParentedTree('DT', ['a'])]]
>>> list(tgrep_nodes('DT $ JJ', [tree]))
[[ParentedTree('DT', ['the'])]]

This implementation adds syntax to select nodes based on their NLTK
tree position.  This syntax is ``N`` plus a Python tuple representing
the tree position.  For instance, ``N()``, ``N(0,)``, ``N(0,0)`` are
valid node selectors.  Example:

>>> tree = ParentedTree.fromstring('(S (NP (DT the) (JJ big) (NN dog)) (VP bit) (NP (DT a) (NN cat)))')
>>> tree[0,0]
ParentedTree('DT', ['the'])
>>> tree[0,0].treeposition()
(0, 0)
>>> list(tgrep_nodes('N(0,0)', [tree]))
[[ParentedTree('DT', ['the'])]]

Caveats:
========

- Link modifiers: "?" and "=" are not implemented.
- Tgrep compatibility: Using "@" for "!", "{" for "<", "}" for ">" are
  not implemented.
- The "=" and "~" links are not implemented.

Known Issues:
=============

- There are some issues with link relations involving leaf nodes
  (which are represented as bare strings in NLTK trees).  For
  instance, consider the tree::

      (S (A x))

  The search string ``* !>> S`` should select all nodes which are not
  dominated in some way by an ``S`` node (i.e., all nodes which are
  not descendants of an ``S``).  Clearly, in this tree, the only node
  which fulfills this criterion is the top node (since it is not
  dominated by anything).  However, the code here will find both the
  top node and the leaf node ``x``.  This is because we cannot recover
  the parent of the leaf, since it is stored as a bare string.

  A possible workaround, when performing this kind of search, would be
  to filter out all leaf nodes.

Implementation notes
====================

This implementation is (somewhat awkwardly) based on lambda functions
which are predicates on a node.  A predicate is a function which is
either True or False; using a predicate function, we can identify sets
of nodes with particular properties.  A predicate function, could, for
instance, return True only if a particular node has a label matching a
particular regular expression, and has a daughter node which has no
sisters.  Because tgrep2 search strings can do things statefully (such
as substituting in macros, and binding nodes with node labels), the
actual predicate function is declared with three arguments::

    pred = lambda n, m, l: return True # some logic here

``n``
    is a node in a tree; this argument must always be given

``m``
    contains a dictionary, mapping macro names onto predicate functions

``l``
    is a dictionary to map node labels onto nodes in the tree

``m`` and ``l`` are declared to default to ``None``, and so need not be
specified in a call to a predicate.  Predicates which call other
predicates must always pass the value of these arguments on.  The
top-level predicate (constructed by ``_tgrep_exprs_action``) binds the
macro definitions to ``m`` and initialises ``l`` to an empty dictionary.

    This is a segmented pattern, a tgrep2 expression which begins with

    The problem is that for segemented_pattern_action (': =v < =s'),
    the first element (in this case, =v) is specifically selected by

    returns true if the node visited is the same as =v.

    We solve this by creating two copies of a node_label_use in the
    grammar; the label use inside a tgrep_expr_labeled has a separate
    parse action to the pred use inside a node_expr.  See
