This is a really simple Python parser for the [journald binary export format](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/export/).

It can parse journal entries from a file-like object or an iterable, and yields each entry as a `dict` containing all attributes of the journal entry.

    from __future__ import print_function  # if using Python 2.x

    from journalparse import journalparse

    with open("some_file", "rb") as fp:

        for entry in journalparse(fp):

            print(entry)

    # ... or ...

    data = b"_MESSAGE=blah"

    for entry in journalparse(data):

        print(entry)

No requirements other than Python. Tested on Python 3.5 but should work on Python 2.6+ and 3.2+.
