architxt 0.4.0

ArchiTXT is a tool for structuring textual data into a valid database model. It is guided by a meta-grammar and uses an iterative process of tree rewriting.

ArchiTXT: Text-to-Database Structuring Tool

ArchiTXT is a robust tool designed to convert unstructured textual data into structured formats that are ready for database storage. It automates the generation of database schemas and creates corresponding data instances, simplifying the integration of text-based information into database systems.

Working with unstructured text can be challenging when you need to store and query it in a structured database. ArchiTXT bridges this gap by transforming raw text into organized, query-friendly structures. By automating both schema generation and data instance creation, it streamlines the entire process of managing textual information in databases.

Installation

To install ArchiTXT, make sure you have Python 3.10+ and pip installed. Then, run:

pip install architxt

For the development version, you can install it directly through GIT using

pip install git+https://github.com/Neplex/ArchiTXT.git

Usage

ArchiTXT is built to work seamlessly with BRAT-annotated corpora that includes pre-labeled named entities. It also requires access to a CoreNLP server, which you can set up using the Docker configuration available in the source repository.
