image image image image image codecov Code style: black Netlify Status

Let computers do the hard work for you! iambic provides:

  1. The most accurate method for counting lines automatically.
  2. Automatically track which characters are speaking in any scene.
  3. Deterministic, repeatable results, with the ability to store your data as JSON with strictly defined schema for passing over the wire or storing locally or in a NoSQL database between runtimes.

Installation

In order to install the latest version, simply pip3 install -U iambic.

This library requires Python 3.7 or greater.

What is it?

iambic was originally envisioned as a tool for translating Shakespearean text into actionable information, i.e.:

  1. How many lines are in this particular play?
  2. How many lines does a given character speak in this play?
  3. Which characters speak, in which scenes and acts?

As a result of the implementation, this tool can be applied to any body of text which adhere's to its parsing syntax.

The Schema

The full schema specification has been written in JSON Schema 7.0 and can be found here

Documentation

The full documentation is available at iambic.seandstewart.io
