Emend is a service built on Google App Engine for alerting website owners and authors of grammatical and spelling mistakes found on their site.
Emend uses Megaera to handle the dirty work.
Emend integrates with Twitter and bit.ly to publish a live stream of edits. Spelling suggestions are provided by Yahoo! Search BOSS via YQL.
Emend expects its requirements to be installed by pip
in a virtualenv
environment.
Setup the environment in the project root,
virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python2.7 --no-site-packages .
Activate the environment,
source bin/activate
Install Emend's requirements,
pip install -r pip-requirements.txt
Emend's application root is "app".
