My Ghost Writer

A simple helper for writers.

Overview

My Ghost Writer is a web application that analyzes text and provides words frequency statistics. It allows users to upload or type in a text, and then displays the most common words, their frequencies and their position with the text editor. The application uses natural language processing (NLP) techniques to stem words, making it easier to identify patterns and trends in the text.

Features

• Analyse large texts and provide words frequency statistics
• Use NLP to stem words for more accurate results
• Support for uploading or typing in text
• User-friendly interface with a simple editor and display of word frequencies

Technologies Used

• Python 3.10+ (FastAPI web framework)
• a Vanilla JavaScript frontend, playwright for E2E testing
• nltk library for natural language processing
• structlog for logging and error handling

Getting Started

In a Linux/WSL environment (I didn't tried with MacOS or Windows):

1. Clone the repository using git clone https://github.com/trincadev/my_ghost_writer, cd my_ghost_writer

2. Create a virtualenv and install the project dependencies using an existing python version with

   • poetry (poetry env use 3.12.10, poetry install, eval $(poetry env activate))
   • python -m venv .venv, source .venv/bin/activate, pip install -r requirements.txt (and the other requirements files if you need also the webserver and/or the test environment)

3. Run the application using python my_ghost_writer/app.py
