NAME

Ufal::Parsito - bindings to Parsito library http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/parsito.

SYNOPSIS

use Ufal::Parsito;

my $parser_file = '...';
my $parser = Ufal::Parsito::Parser::load($parser_file) or die "Cannot load parser from file '$parser_file'\n";

my $conllu_input = Ufal::Parsito::TreeInputFormat::newInputFormat("conllu");
my $conllu_output = Ufal::Parsito::TreeOutputFormat::newOutputFormat("conllu");
my $tree = Ufal::Parsito::Tree->new();

$conllu_input->setText(join('', <>));
while ($conllu_input->nextTree($tree)) {
  $parser->parse($tree);

  my $output = $conllu_output->writeTree($tree, $conllu_input);
  print $output;
}
length($conllu_input->lastError()) and die "Cannot read input CoNLL-U: " . $conllu_input->lastError();

REQUIREMENTS

To compile the module, C++11 compiler is needed, either g++ 4.7 or newer, alternatively clang 3.2 or newer.

DESCRIPTION

Ufal::Parsito is a Perl binding to Parsito library http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/parsito.

The bindings is a straightforward conversion of the C++ bindings API. Vectors do not have native Perl interface, see Ufal::Parsito::Children source for reference. Static methods and enumerations are available only through the module, not through object instance.

Wrapped C++ API

The C++ API being wrapped follows. For a API reference of the original C++ API, see L\<http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/parsito/api-reference\>.

Helper Structures
-----------------

  typedef vector<int> Children;

  class Node {
   public:
    int id;          // 0 is root, >0 is sentence node, <0 is undefined
    string form;    // form
    string lemma;   // lemma
    string upostag; // universal part-of-speech tag
    string xpostag; // language-specific part-of-speech tag
    string feats;   // list of morphological features
    int head;       // head, 0 is root, <0 is without parent
    string deprel;  // dependency relation to the head
    string deps;    // secondary dependencies
    string misc;    // miscellaneous information

    Children children;

    node(int id = -1, string form = string());
  };
  typedef std::vector<node> Nodes;

Examples

run_parsito

Simple example performing parsing and CoNLL-U reading and writing.

use strict;
use open qw(:std :utf8);

use Ufal::Parsito;


@ARGV >= 1 or die "Usage: $0 parser_file\n";

print STDERR "Loading parser: ";
my $parser = Ufal::Parsito::Parser::load($ARGV[0]);
$parser or die "Cannot load parser from file '$ARGV[0]'\n";
print STDERR "done\n";
shift @ARGV;

my $conllu_input = Ufal::Parsito::TreeInputFormat::newInputFormat("conllu");
my $conllu_output = Ufal::Parsito::TreeOutputFormat::newOutputFormat("conllu");
my $tree = Ufal::Parsito::Tree->new();

for (my $not_eof = 1; $not_eof; ) {
  my $text = '';

  # Read block
  while (1) {
    my $line = <>;
    last unless ($not_eof = defined $line);
    $text .= $line;
    chomp($line);
    last unless length $line;
  }

  # Tag
  $conllu_input->setText($text);
  while ($conllu_input->nextTree($tree)) {
    $parser->parse($tree);

    my $output = $conllu_output->writeTree($tree, $conllu_input);
    print $output;
  }
  length($conllu_input->lastError()) and die "Cannot read input CoNLL-U: " . $conllu_input->lastError();
}
