This is a tool for extracting things from text in JSONs.

Currently it supports:

• Set lists of terms

It used to support (and will soon support again):

• Words in ALLCAPS
• Dates

To use any methods:

e = TermExtractor.new(File.read("input/file.json"), ["fields", "to",
"extract", "from"], "name_of_output_field")

Then, for set terms:

e.extractSetTerms(File.read("list/of/terms.json"), ["field", "with",
"extraction", "terms"], "if it is case sensitive")

Input JSONs are of the form:

"Term to map matches to": {
      "Search Terms": ["Array", "of", "terms"],
      "Case Sensitive?": "Yes"
}

Alternatively, a simple array of terms to look for also works.

The following options are available for case sensitivity:

• "case-sensitive" matches only terms in the same case as specified.
• "case-insensitive" matches that term in any case.
• "name of field with case sensitivity info" allows for term-by-term case sensitivity determination.

Output Methods-

• e.getAllOutput gets all the results
• e.getOnlyMatching gets only the results where terms were extracted from
• e.getTermList gets a list of extracted terms in order of number of appearances
