pynlg is a pure python re-implementation of SimpleNLG-EnFr, a java library enabling french and english text surface realisation, based on SimpleNLG.

For more information about what SimpleNLG and SimpleNLG-EnFr, have a look at their documentation:

pynlg supports Python2.7 and 3.5. Python 3.3 and 3.4 should work, but are untested.

Examples

Definition of a nominal sentence, with a feminine noun

from pynlg.lexicon.fr import FrenchLexicon
from pynlg.lexicon.feature.category import NOUN, ADJECTIVE, DETERMINER
from pynlg.lexicon.feature.gender import FEMININE
from pynlg import make_noun_phrase

lex = FrenchLexicon()
un = lex.first(u'un', category=DETERMINER)
maison = lex.first(u'maison', category=NOUN)
maison = maison.inflex(gender=FEMININE)
beau = lex.first(u'beau', category=ADJECTIVE)
perdu = lex.first(u'perdu', category=ADJECTIVE)
phrase = make_noun_phrase(lexicon=lex, specifier=un, noun=maison, modifiers=[beau, perdu])
syntaxically_realised_phrase = phrase.realise()
morphologically_realised_phrase = syntaxically_realised_phrase.realise_morphology()
morphologically_realised_phrase.components
[<StringElement {realisation=une, category=DETERMINER}>,
<StringElement {realisation=belle, category=ADJECTIVE}>,
<StringElement {realisation=maison, category=CANNED_TEXT}>,
<StringElement {realisation=perdue, category=ADJECTIVE}>]

Supported languages

For now, the following languages are supported:

  • french (in process)
  • english (in process)

How can I contribute?

First, clone the repository, and create a new local branch. Once the new feature is implemented (or the bug is fixed) and everything is tested properly, push your work and create a pull request.

Note: you should run the tests beforehand, and make sure they pass:

$ tox

How do I add support for a new language?
