hAraCat is a Python library for adding diacritics automatically to Medieval Arabic text.

pip3 install haracat
python3 -m haracat.download

Use 🐱

Diacritics can be added as follows

from haracat import diacritics_sentence
diacritics_sentence("الإجاج، مثلثة الأول: الستر.".split(" "))
>> الْإِجاجُ، مُثَلَّثَةَ الْأَوَّلِ: السِّتْرُ.

First the sentence is tokenized before the diacritics are predicted.
