Function calls

Example:

from nafigator.parse import generate_naf

doc = generate_naf(input = "../data/example.pdf",
                   engine = "stanza",
                   language = "en",
                   naf_version = "v3.1",
                   dtd_validation = False,
                   params = {'fileDesc': {'author': 'W.J.Willemse'}},
                   nlp = None)

• input: text document to convert to naf document

• engine: pipeline processor, i.e. ‘spacy’ or ‘stanza’

• language: ‘en’ or ‘nl’

• naf_version: ‘v3’ or ‘v3.1’

• dtd_validation: True or False (default = False)

• params: dictionary with parameters (default = {})

• nlp: custom made pipeline object from spacy or stanza (default = None)
