    **===  General Options  ===**

    start
            The start symbol. Either a string, or a list of strings for multiple possible starts (Default: "start")
    debug
            Display debug information and extra warnings. Use only when debugging (Default: ``False``)
            When used with Earley, it generates a forest graph as "sppf.png", if 'dot' is installed.
    strict
            Throw an exception on any potential ambiguity, including shift/reduce conflicts, and regex collisions.
    transformer
            Applies the transformer to every parse tree (equivalent to applying it after the parse, but faster)
    propagate_positions
            Propagates positional attributes into the 'meta' attribute of all tree branches.
            Sets attributes: (line, column, end_line, end_column, start_pos, end_pos,
                              container_line, container_column, container_end_line, container_end_column)
            Accepts ``False``, ``True``, or a callable, which will filter which nodes to ignore when propagating.
    maybe_placeholders
            When ``True``, the ``[]`` operator returns ``None`` when not matched.
            When ``False``,  ``[]`` behaves like the ``?`` operator, and returns no value at all.
            (default= ``True``)
    cache
            Cache the results of the Lark grammar analysis, for x2 to x3 faster loading. LALR only for now.

            - When ``False``, does nothing (default)
            - When ``True``, caches to a temporary file in the local directory
            - When given a string, caches to the path pointed by the string
    cache_grammar
            For use with ``cache`` option. When ``True``, the unanalyzed grammar is also included in the cache.
            Useful for classes that require the ``Lark.grammar`` to be present (e.g. Reconstructor).
            (default= ``False``)
    regex
            When True, uses the ``regex`` module instead of the stdlib ``re``.
    g_regex_flags
            Flags that are applied to all terminals (both regex and strings)
    keep_all_tokens
            Prevent the tree builder from automagically removing "punctuation" tokens (Default: ``False``)
    tree_class
            Lark will produce trees comprised of instances of this class instead of the default ``lark.Tree``.

    **=== Algorithm Options ===**

    parser
            Decides which parser engine to use. Accepts "earley" or "lalr". (Default: "earley").
            (there is also a "cyk" option for legacy)
    lexer
            Decides whether or not to use a lexer stage

            - "auto" (default): Choose for me based on the parser
            - "basic": Use a basic lexer
            - "contextual": Stronger lexer (only works with parser="lalr")
            - "dynamic": Flexible and powerful (only with parser="earley")
            - "dynamic_complete": Same as dynamic, but tries *every* variation of tokenizing possible.
    ambiguity
            Decides how to handle ambiguity in the parse. Only relevant if parser="earley"

            - "resolve": The parser will automatically choose the simplest derivation
              (it chooses consistently: greedy for tokens, non-greedy for rules)
            - "explicit": The parser will return all derivations wrapped in "_ambig" tree nodes (i.e. a forest).
            - "forest": The parser will return the root of the shared packed parse forest.

    **=== Misc. / Domain Specific Options ===**

    postlex
            Lexer post-processing (Default: ``None``) Only works with the basic and contextual lexers.
    priority
            How priorities should be evaluated - "auto", ``None``, "normal", "invert" (Default: "auto")
    lexer_callbacks
            Dictionary of callbacks for the lexer. May alter tokens during lexing. Use with caution.
    use_bytes
            Accept an input of type ``bytes`` instead of ``str``.
    ordered_sets
            Should Earley use ordered-sets to achieve stable output (~10% slower than regular sets. Default: True)
    edit_terminals
            A callback for editing the terminals before parse.
    import_paths
            A List of either paths or loader functions to specify from where grammars are imported
    source_path
            Override the source of from where the grammar was loaded. Useful for relative imports and unconventional grammar loading
    **=== End of Options ===**
