Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

cetem-publico

A wrapper for CETEMPúblico, an European Portuguese corpus of news extracts from the newspaper Público, with 180 million words tagged automatically using PALAVRAS.

Installation

$ npm install cetem-publico

This will download this module, but it won't download the corpus file, and it will fail if you try to use it. Use the cp.download method to download the corpus file (12GB).

Usage


This is still a work in progress, API is subject to change without warning.

Do you have suggestions? Send me a message or a pull request on GitHub!


const {CETEMPublico} = require('cetem-publico');
const cp = new CETEMPublico();

// cp.download(); // to download the corpus file

async function procLines(){
  for await (const line of cp.lines()){
    // do something with line
  }
}

async function procTokens(){
  for await (const token of cp.tokens()){
    // do something with token
  }
}

async function procSentences(){
  for await (const sent of cp.sentences()){
    // do something with sent
  }
}

async function procParagraphs(){
  for await (const par of cp.paragraphs()){
    // do something with par
  }
}

async function procExtracts(){
  for await (const ext of cp.extracts()){
    // do something with ext
  }
}

Methods

new CETEMPublico(file)

new CETEMPublico(opts)

new CETEMPublico(file, opts)

  • file: a string containing the path to a local CETEMPublico file. If not provided, the file will be loaded from $HOME/.cetem-publico/CETEMPublicoAnotado2019.gz.
  • opts: see Options.

cp.download()

Download a copy of the CETEMPublico corpus from https://www.linguateca.pt/CETEMPublico/download/, compresses it using Gzip and stores it in $HOME/.cetem-publico/CETEMPublicoAnotado2019.gz. If file already exists, it print a warning message and does nothing.

The whole file is 12GB, so this takes some time.

You can monitor the download progress by listening to the dl_progress event. Example:

cp.on('dl_progress', state => {
  ({
    fileName,
    speed,
    percent,
    elapsed,
    remaining,
    transf,
    total
  } = state);

  process.stdout.write(`${fileName}\t${speed}\t${percent}%\t${elapsed}/${remaining}\t${transf}/${total}\r`);
});

Returns a `Promise`.

cp.lines(opts)

Returns an AsyncGenerator object where each item is a string containing a line of the original corpus file.

You can monitor the progress of the corpus reading process by listening to the read_progress event. This is valid for any of the corpus reading functions (cp.lines, cp.tokens, cp.sentences, cp.paragraphs and cp.extracts). Example:

cp.on('read_progress', state => {
  ({
    speed,
    percent,
    elapsed,
    remaining,
    transf,
    total
  } = state);

  process.stdout.write(`Progress: ${speed}\t${percent}%\t${elapsed}/${remaining}\t${transf}/${total}\r`);
});

cp.tokens(opts)

Returns an AsyncGenerator object where each item is a Token object containing one token from the original corpus file.

cp.sentences(opts)

Returns an AsyncGenerator object where each item is a Sentence object containing a sentence (<s> tag) of the original corpus file.

cp.paragraphs(opts)

Returns an AsyncGenerator object where each item is a Paragraph object containing a paragraph (<p> tag) of the original corpus file.

cp.extracts(opts)

Returns an AsyncGenerator object where each item is an Extract object containing an extract (<ext> tag) of the original corpus file.

Events

dl_progress

Event emitted while downloading the corpus file.

cp.on('dl_progress', state => {})

state is an object containing the following fields:

  • fileName: name of the file being downloaded (default: CETEMPublicoAnotado2019.gz)
  • speed: download speed (in bytes per second)
  • percent: percentage of the file already downloaded
  • elapsed: time passed (in seconds)
  • remaining: time left (in seconds)
  • transf: total transferred bytes
  • total: total size of the file (in bytes)

dl_end

Event emitted when download ends.

read_progress

Event emitted while processing the corpus file.

cp.on('read_progress', state => {})

state is an object containing the following fields:

  • speed: read speed (in bytes per second)
  • percent: percentage of the file already read
  • elapsed: time passed (in seconds)
  • remaining: time left (in seconds)
  • transf: total read bytes
  • total: total size of the file (in bytes)

read_end

Event emitted when reading ends.

Options (TODO)

  • noMWEs: Omit multi-word expressions
  • simplMWEs: Simplify MWEs: return their tokens as any other token
  • noTitles: Omit titles
  • noAuthors: Omit authors
  • noTitles: Omit titles

Classes

Token

Used to represent the tokens in the original corpus file. In the format used by CETEMPublico, each token is in an individual line.

new Token(word, info)

  • word is the word in the original corpus text
  • info (all these are optional)
    • lineNum: the line number for this token in the original corpus file
    • tokenId: an ID for this token
    • section: the ID of the section the token is in
    • week:
    • lemma: the lemmatized version of word
    • pos: the part-of-speech (POS) tag for word
    • `other*: an object with all the extra information found in CETEMPublico for this token

MultiWordExpression

CETEMPublico annotates some mult-word expressions using <mwe> tags. Inside each tag, the tokens which compose the expression, one in each line. MWEs can have attributes indicating the lemma and the POS tag for the whole expression.

new MultiWordExpression({lemma, pos}, tokens)

  • lemma: the lemma for the multi-word expression
  • pos: the POS tag for the multi-word expression
  • tokens: an array of Token objects which make this MWE

Sentence

In CETEMPublico, a sentence is represented using a <s> tag. Sentences contain a list of tokens (the words in that sentence). Because some words can form multi-word expressions, inside a Sentence we can find both Tokens and MultiWordExpressions (which, in turn, have Token objects inside).

new Sentence(id, tokens)

  • id: an id for the sentence
  • tokens: an array of tokens and MWEs which form this sentence

Paragraph

A paragraph, represented in CETEMPublico using the tag <p>. Paragraphs are composed of a sequence of sentences.

new Paragraph(id, sentences)

  • id: an id for the sentence
  • sentences: an array of sentences which form this paragraph

Extract

An extract of an news article. Extracts are represented by the tag <ext> and contain a sequence of sentences. Optionally, they can also include a Title and Authors, and the attributes n (an id for the extract), sec (the newspaper section it was gathered from) and sem (the week in which it was published).

new Extract({n, sec, sem}, contents)

  • n: the number of this extract
  • section: the section in which the extract was found
  • week: the week it was published on
  • contents: an array of Paragraph objects, possibly also including a Title and an Authors objects

Authors

The authors of the article an Extract was gathered from.

new Authors(tokens)

  • tokens: an array of Token objects, each being an author of the article

Title

The title of the article the Extract belongs to.

new Title(tokens)

  • tokens: an array of Token objects which make the title

TODO

  • Implement opts
  • Fix ID in '«' and '»' (these quotation marks don't seem to get attributed IDs in the original CETEMPublico)
  • Add tests
  • Speed up download using fast-request?
  • Add options to cp.download
    • Where to download from
    • Where to download to
  • ...
