        wikitextparser
        ==============
        
        A simple, purely python, WikiText parsing tool.
        
        Be warned that the project is in it's early development stage.
        The API may change drastically and there may be some bugs.
        It sure can't parse a page the exact same way as the MediaWiki does 
        (because it's completely offline and can't expand templates and
        also has not yet implemented many details of MediaWiki parser...),
        but my guess is that for most usual cases the current capabilities 
        will suffice.
        
        Installation
        ============
        
        Use ``pip install wikitextparser``
        
        Usage
        =====
        
        Here is a short demo of some of the functionalities:
        
        .. code:: python
        
            >>> import wikitextparser as wtp
            >>> # wikitextparser can detect sections, parserfunctions, templates,
            >>> # wikilinks, external links, arguments, and HTML comments in
            >>> # your wikitext:
            >>> wt = wtp.parse("""
            == h2 ==
            t2
        
            === h3 ===
            t3
        
            == h22 ==
            t22
        
            {{text|value1{{text|value2}}}}
        
            [[A|B]]""")
            >>> 
            >>> wt.templates
            [Template('{{text|value2}}'), Template('{{text|value1{{text|value2}}}}')]
            >>> wt.templates[1].arguments
            [Argument("|value1{{text|value2}}")]
            >>> wt.templates[1].arguments[0].value = 'value3'
            >>> print(wt)
        
            == h2 ==
            t2
        
            === h3 ===
            t3
        
            == h22 ==
            t22
        
            {{text|value3}}
        
            [[A|B]]
            >>> # It provides easy-to-use properties so you can get or set
            >>> # name or value of templates, arguments, wikilinks, etc.
            >>> wt.wikilinks
            [WikiLink("[[A|B]]")]
            >>> wt.wikilinks[0].target = 'Z'
            >>> wt.wikilinks[0].text = 'X'
            >>> wt.wikilinks[0]
            WikiLink('[[Z|X]]')
            >>> 
            >>> from pprint import pprint
            >>> pprint(wt.sections)
            [Section('\n'),
             Section('== h2 ==\nt2\n\n=== h3 ===\nt3\n\n'),
             Section('=== h3 ===\nt3\n\n'),
             Section('== h22 ==\nt22\n\n{{text|value3}}\n\n[[Z|X]]')]
            >>> 
            >>> wt.sections[1].title = 'newtitle'
            >>> print(wt)

            == h22 ==
            t22
        
            {{text|value3}}
        
            [[Z|X]]
            >>> # There is a pprint function that you might find useful:
            >>> p = wtp.parse('{{t1 |b=b|c=c| d={{t2|e=e|f=f}} }}')
            >>> t2, t1 = p.templates
