pii-preprocess 0.1.0

Document preprocessing for PII Management

pii-preprocess

This package is intended for the data/document preprocessing stage in the PII Management flow designed by PIISA.

It will contain:

• a Python API and command-line entry points to read a number of file formats and convert them to PII Source Documents, as defined by pii-data
• Utilities for document transformation (to ease PII processing)

Contents

The current contents of the package are:

• Classes and an API for reading some file types:
  • CSV files (into Table source documents)
  • Microsoft Word files (into Sequence or Tree source documents)
  • Raw text files (read plain text files into Sequence source documents or, using indentation, into Tree source documents).
• A configurable loader class thar can load formats by dispatching to appropriate subclasses
• Some command-line scripts:
  • a generic script that uses the loader class to convert any implemented format to a YAML or plain text file
  • scripts for specific formats:
    • a script to convert between CSV files and the YAML canonical representation for Source Documents
    • a script to convert between plain text files and the YAML canonical representation for Source Documents
