gitmirror/examples/reconstruct_json.py

#
# This example demonstrates an experimental feature: Text reconstruction
# The Reconstructor takes a parse tree (already filtered from punctuation, of course),
# and reconstructs it into correct text, that can be parsed correctly.
# It can be useful for creating "hooks" to alter data before handing it to other parsers. You can also use it to generate samples from scratch.
