ReadLess API

You can use readless like a library in your project.

For quickly summarizing a conversation using ClusterRank algorithm:

# -*- coding: utf8 -*-

from readless.Summarization import clusterrank
summarizer = clusterrank.ClusterRank()
pathToFile = "C:/conversation.in"
summary = summarizer.summarizeFile(pathToFile)

For segmenting a text using TextTiling algorithm:

# -*- coding: utf8 -*-

from readless.Segmentation import texttiling
segmentation = texttiling.TextTiling()
pathToFile = "C:/conversation.in"
segmentedText = segmentation.segmentFile(pathToFile)

For a detailed list of other API functionalities, see **ReadLess Documentation**.
