A command-line application to export (TALN-like) conference proceedings to various formats (namely pdf, hal, aclanthology, dblp)
Project description
Description
taln2x is a Python program which converts a set of scientific articles to a ready-to-ingest dataset for open archives. Currently supported output formats include pdf (for printable full proceedings), TALN archives, HAL, ACL anthology, and DBLP.
User interface
taln2x is a command-line tool which expects as input a directory containing specific pieces of information (gathered either manually or else via an abstract management system such as easychair) and relying on a given structure (see documentation), and outputs a directory whose internal structure depends on the target online archive.
Installation
The recommanded way to install taln2x is to use the pip package manager (within a virtual environment to avoid conflicts with installed libraries):
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install taln2x
Basic usage
taln2x COMMAND [OPTIONS]
Where COMMAND is either new (to set up an input directory containing the expected structure and ready-to-fill config files), build (to compile proceedings in a given target format according to the config file, see documentation), clean (to remove proceedings from output directory), or list (to check which articles can be found on the HAL open archive).
For a full list of options, invoke:
taln2x --help
Documentation
taln2x documentation is available at https://talnarchives.gitlabpages.inria.fr/taln2x.
Authors and acknowledgment
taln2x has been developed by Yannick Parmentier, with the help of Sylvain Pogodalla, on behalf of ATALA (the French Association for Computational Linguistics).
The taln2x logo has been created using the Letterblocks fonts made by Vladimir Nikolic.
License
taln2x is released under the terms of the GNU GPLv3 license (see LICENSE).
Project status
The taln2x is a sequel of the taln2acl project which has started in 2020 and has been used (among others) to ingest the proceedings of the TALN conferences from 1999 til 2022 to the ACL anthology and TALNarchives.
