Usage and examples

1. Install ScienceIO

   pip install scienceio
   

2. Register:

   from scienceio import ScienceIO
   ScienceIO.register(
       first_name="Demo name",
       last_name="Demo lastname",
       email="[e-mail]"
   )
   

   You will be sent an email asking you to verify your account. As part of the process you will be asked to create a password.

3. Create a directory .scio in your home directory (Mac users, your home directory is /Users/{username}. Linux users, your home directory is /home/{username}. Windows users, your home directory is C:\\Users\{username}) Inside this directory, create a text file called config containing your credentials:

   [SETTINGS]
   email=[e-mail]
   

4. Query the BioNLP API:

   scio = ScienceIO()
   query_text = (
     'The COVID-19 pandemic has shown a markedly low proportion of '
     'cases among children 1–4. Age disparities in observed cases could be '
     'explained by children having lower susceptibility to infection, lower '
     'propensity to show clinical symptoms or both.'
   )
   
   results = scio.annotate(query_text)
   print(results)
