A high-level NLP toolkit built on top of modern LLMs.
Project description
TextTools
📌 Overview
TextTools is a high-level NLP toolkit built on top of LLMs.
It provides both sync (TheTool) and async (AsyncTheTool) APIs for maximum flexibility.
It provides ready-to-use utilities for translation, question detection, keyword extraction, categorization, NER extraction, and more - designed to help you integrate AI-powered text processing into your applications with minimal effort.
Note: Most features of texttools are reliable when you use google/gemma-3n-e4b-it model.
✨ Features
TextTools provides a rich collection of high-level NLP utilities, Each tool is designed to work with structured outputs.
categorize()- Classifies text into given categoriesextract_keywords()- Extracts keywords from the textextract_entities()- Named Entity Recognition (NER) systemis_question()- Binary question detectiontext_to_question()- Generates questions from textmerge_questions()- Merges multiple questions into onerewrite()- Rewrites text in a diffrent waysubject_to_question()- Generates questions about a specific subjectsummarize()- Text summarizationtranslate()- Text translationpropositionize()- Convert text to atomic independence meaningful sentencescheck_fact()- Check whether a statement is relevant to the source textrun_custom()- Allows users to define a custom tool with an arbitrary BaseModel
🚀 Installation
Install the latest release via PyPI:
pip install -U hamtaa-texttools
📊 Tool Quality Tiers
| Status | Meaning | Tools | Use in Production? |
|---|---|---|---|
| ✅ Production | Evaluated, tested, stable. | categorize() (list mode), extract_keywords(), extract_entities(), is_question(), text_to_question(), merge_questions(), rewrite(), subject_to_question(), summarize(), run_custom() |
Yes - ready for reliable use. |
| 🧪 Experimental | Added to the package but not fully evaluated. Functional, but quality may vary. | categorize() (tree mode), translate(), propositionize(), check_fact() |
Use with caution - outputs not yet validated. |
⚙️ with_analysis, logprobs, output_lang, user_prompt, temperature, validator and priority parameters
TextTools provides several optional flags to customize LLM behavior:
-
with_analysis: bool→ Adds a reasoning step before generating the final output. Note: This doubles token usage per call. -
logprobs: bool→ Returns token-level probabilities for the generated output. You can also specifytop_logprobs=<N>to get the top N alternative tokens and their probabilities.
Note: This feature works if it's supported by the model. -
output_lang: str→ Forces the model to respond in a specific language. -
user_prompt: str→ Allows you to inject a custom instruction or into the model alongside the main template. This gives you fine-grained control over how the model interprets or modifies the input text. -
temperature: float→ Determines how creative the model should respond. Takes a float number from0.0to2.0. -
validator: Callable (Experimental)→ Forces TheTool to validate the output result based on your custom validator. Validator should return a boolean. If the validator fails, TheTool will retry to get another output by modifyingtemperature. You can also specifymax_validation_retries=<N>. -
priority: int (Experimental)→ Task execution priority level. Affects processing order in queues. Note: This feature works if it's supported by the model and vLLM.
🧩 ToolOutput
Every tool of TextTools returns a ToolOutput object which is a BaseModel with attributes:
result: Anyanalysis: strlogprobs: listerrors: list[str]ToolOutputMetadata→tool_name: strprocessed_at: datetimeexecution_time: float
Note: You can use repr(ToolOutput) to print your output with all the details.
🧨 Sync vs Async
| Tool | Style | Use case |
|---|---|---|
TheTool |
Sync | Simple scripts, sequential workflows |
AsyncTheTool |
Async | High-throughput apps, APIs, concurrent tasks |
⚡ Quick Start (Sync)
from openai import OpenAI
from texttools import TheTool
client = OpenAI(base_url = "your_url", API_KEY = "your_api_key")
model = "model_name"
the_tool = TheTool(client=client, model=model)
detection = the_tool.is_question("Is this project open source?")
print(repr(detection))
⚡ Quick Start (Async)
import asyncio
from openai import AsyncOpenAI
from texttools import AsyncTheTool
async def main():
async_client = AsyncOpenAI(base_url="your_url", api_key="your_api_key")
model = "model_name"
async_the_tool = AsyncTheTool(client=async_client, model=model)
translation_task = async_the_tool.translate("سلام، حالت چطوره؟", target_language="English")
keywords_task = async_the_tool.extract_keywords("Tomorrow, we will be dead by the car crash")
(translation, keywords) = await asyncio.gather(translation_task, keywords_task)
print(repr(translation))
print(repr(keywords))
asyncio.run(main())
👍 Use Cases
Use TextTools when you need to:
- 🔍 Classify large datasets quickly without model training
- 🌍 Translate and process multilingual corpora with ease
- 🧩 Integrate LLMs into production pipelines (structured outputs)
- 📊 Analyze large text collections using embeddings and categorization
📚 Batch Processing
Process large datasets efficiently using OpenAI's batch API.
⚡ Quick Start (Batch Runner)
from pydantic import BaseModel
from texttools import BatchRunner, BatchConfig
config = BatchConfig(
system_prompt="Extract entities from the text",
job_name="entity_extraction",
input_data_path="data.json",
output_data_filename="results.json",
model="gpt-4o-mini"
)
class Output(BaseModel):
entities: list[str]
runner = BatchRunner(config, output_model=Output)
runner.run()
