You can install orgpase via PyPI
pip install orgparseor via conda-forge
conda install orgparse -c conda-forgeThere are pretty extensive doctests if you're interested in some specific method. Otherwise here are some example snippets:
from orgparse import load, loads
load('PATH/TO/FILE.org')
load(file_like_object)
loads('''
* This is org-mode contents
You can load org object from string.
** Second header
''')
>>> root = loads('''
... * Heading 1
... ** Heading 2
... *** Heading 3
... ''')
>>> for node in root[1:]: # [1:] for skipping root itself
... print(node)
* Heading 1
** Heading 2
*** Heading 3
>>> h1 = root.children[0]
>>> h2 = h1.children[0]
>>> h3 = h2.children[0]
>>> print(h1)
* Heading 1
>>> print(h2)
** Heading 2
>>> print(h3)
*** Heading 3
>>> print(h2.get_parent())
* Heading 1
>>> print(h3.get_parent(max_level=1))
* Heading 1>>> root = loads('''

For my personal use, orgparse mostly has all features I need, so there hasn't been much active development lately.
However, contributions are always welcome! Please provide tests along with your contribution if you're fixing bugs or adding new functionality.
