# py_literal
[](https://travis-ci.org/jturner314/py_literal)
This is a pure-Rust crate for parsing/formatting [Python literals]. See
[`src/lib.rs`](src/lib.rs) for more information.
[Python literals]: https://docs.python.org/3/reference/lexical_analysis.html#literals
**This crate is a work-in-progress.** The goal is for the parser to support
everything [`ast.literal_eval()`] does, but it supports only a subset. See the
docs for the `FromStr` implementation for `Value` for details.
[`ast.literal_eval()`]: https://docs.python.org/3/library/ast.html#ast.literal_eval
