  Description     : Parse YARA rules into a dictionary representation.

Plyara is a script and library that lexes and parses a file consisting
of one more YARA rules into a python dictionary representation.
The goal of this tool is to make it easier to perform bulk operations
or transformations of large sets of YARA rules, such as extracting
indicators, updating attributes, and analyzing a corpus.
Other applications include linters and dependency checkers.

Plyara leverages the Python module PLY for lexing YARA rules.

The package will be introduced to the pkg-security-team repos
