KPCommons 0.0.3

A collection of reusable methods.

Readme

KPCommons is a collection of methods which are regularly needed.

Util

Util.py contains the following methods:

• calculate_overlap is a method to calculate the overlap between two ranges.

  overlap = Util.calculate_overlap(0, 10, 5, 10)
  

  would return a result of 5. The first two arguments are the start and end position of the first range, and the last two arguments are the positions of the second range.

  Note: In case of no overlap, the distance between the two ranges is returned as a negative result.

• calculate_overlap_ratios is a method to calculate the overlap ratios of two ranges.

  ratio_1, ratio_2 = Util.calculate_overlap_ratio(0, 10, 5, 10)
  

Footnote

Footnote.py contains a collection of methods for working with footnotes.

• get_footnotes_ranges takes a text and returns two list of tuples of start and end character positions of footnote ranges, that is, text surrounded by '[[[' and ']]]'. The first list is without an offset, that is, the actual positions, and the second list is with an offset, that is, as if the footnotes were removed.
• get_footnote_ranges_without_offset and get_footnote_ranges_with_offset are variants of get_footnotes_ranges which only return one of the lists.
• is_position_in_ranges checks if a position is in one of the ranges.
• is_range_in_ranges checks if a range given by a start and end position overlaps with one of the given ranges.
• remove_footnotes removes footnotes from a text. Footnotes are marked by '[[[' and ']]]'.
• map_to_real_pos maps start and end character positions of a text with footnotes removed to real positions, that is, positions before footnotes where removed.
