Indexer transforms list of strings to list of integers according to the string2int mapping function(e.q. a look-up table).

## Getting Started

### Prerequisites

1. Please create a virtual environment with python 3.6
2. Type the following command in terminal:
```
make install
```

### Running the tests

```
make test
```

## How to completely save and load indexer?

### 1. Save
```python
from text_indexer.io import save_indexer
custom_indexer_instance = XXIndexer()
save_indexer(indexer=custom_indexer_instance, output_dir='directory-to-export-indexer')
```
If output_dir is `/home/user/example/`, you will get a tar file `/home/user/example-all.tar.gz` after calling
`save_indexer`.

### 2. Load
```python
from text_indexer.io import load_indexer
your_indexer = load_indexer(path='indexer-tar-filepath')
```
