pii-transform

This package takes a source document, a collection of detected PII instances, and transforms the document by replacing the PII instances in the document with a different representation.

The type of substitution done is defined by transformation policies.

Note: pii-transform does not implement or use Transformer models for PII purposes (for the extraction of PII instances using Transformer models, see pii-extract-plg-transformers or pii-extract-plg-presidio).

Command-line script

The package provides a console script: pii-transform loads a source document & a collection of already-detected PII, and produces a transformed document following the specified policies.

API

The same functionality provided by the command-line script can also be accessed via a Python API

End-to-end workflow

The end-to-end scripts and APIs have been migrated; they are now in the pii-process package. That one is also the module to use to process generic documents, since this package supports only the PIISA Source Document format, which contains the document written as a YAML file.
