LingoTweaker (Python)

Python bindings for the LingoTweaker proofreading engine (Rust core, PyO3). The extension module is imported as lt_py; the distribution is named lingotweaker.

import lt_py

engine = lt_py.Engine("en-US")
for match in engine.check("I can heard you."):
    print(match["rule_id"], match["suggestions"])

This wheel ships code only. Language data is installed separately, one PyPI distribution per language:

pip install lingotweaker lingotweaker-data-en

lt_py then finds the data automatically for a matching language:

import lt_py

engine = lt_py.Engine("en-US")

Each lingotweaker-data-<lang> package exposes its directory as lingotweaker_data_<lang>.data_dir() if you prefer to pass it explicitly (lt_py.Engine(..., data_dir=data_dir())) or to set LT_DATA_DIR (which also accepts a single .pack/.pack.gz file). Per-language packs and archives are attached to each GitHub Release as well. See the repository README and data/README.md for how the data tree is produced.

LingoTweaker is an independent project and includes a port of the legacy LanguageTool proofreading engine and its rule data. Upstream references and licenses are kept; see THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md in the repository.
