Textoken is a Ruby library for text tokenization. This gem extracts words from text with many customizations. It can be used in many fields like Web Crawling and Natural Language Processing.

## Basic Usage

require 'textoken'

Textoken('Software is like sex: it\'s better when it\'s free. \'Linus Tolvards\'').tokens
# => ["Software", "is", "like", "sex", ":", "it", "'", "s", "better", "when", "it", "'", "s", "free", ".", "'", "Linus", "Tolvards", "'"]

Textoken('Oh, no! Alfa is at home.').tokens
# => ["Oh", ",", "no", "!", "Alfa", "is", "at", "home", "."]

Textoken('Oh, no! Alfa is at home.').words
# => ["Oh,", "no!", "Alfa", "is", "at", "home."]

## Customization

require 'textoken'

Textoken('Oh, no! Alfa is at home.', only: 'punctuations').tokens
# => ["Oh", ",", "no", "!", "home", "."]

Textoken('Oh, no! Alfa is at home.', exclude: 'punctuations', more_than: 3).tokens
# => ["Alfa"]

Textoken('Oh, no! Alfa is at 01/01/2000 with $1000.', only: 'dates, numerics').words
# => ["01/01/2000", "$1000."]

Textoken('Oh, no! Alfa 2000 is at home.', only_regexp: '^[0-9]*$').tokens
# => ["2000"]

You can combine all options. 'Only' and 'Exclude' Options support multiple option values like only: 'punctuations, dates, numerics'

Public interface of Textoken presents two methods, tokens & words

Textoken('Alfa.').tokens
# => ["Alfa", "."]
# => splits punctuations by default whereas,

Textoken('Alfa.').words
# => ["Alfa."]
# => does not split punctuations.

Current Options

  • only: Accepts any regexp defined in option_values.yml

  • only_regexp: Accepts any regexp but only one regexp can be given.

  • exclude: Accepts any regexp defined in option_values.yml

  • exclude_regexp Accepts any regexp but only one regexp can be given.

  • less_than: Accepts any integer bigger than 1.

  • more_than: Accepts any positive integer.

## Option Meanings

  • only: If a word in text consist of a regexp or regexps, only option includes it in result.

  • only_regexp: If a word in text consist of user given regexp, only_regexp option includes it in result.

  • exclude: If a word in text does not have a regexp at some part, exclude option excludes it from result. Opposite of only.

  • exclude_regexp: If a word in text does not have user given regexp at some part, exclude option excludes it from result. Opposite of only_regexp.

  • less_than: Filters result by the word length less than the option value given.

  • more_than: Filters result by the word length bigger than the option value given.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'textoken'

And then execute:
