Usage

See https://ckip-classic.readthedocs.io/ for API details.

CKIPWS

CKIP Word Segmentation offline driver.

import ckip_classic.ws
print(ckip_classic.__name__, ckip_classic.__version__)

ws = ckip_classic.ws.CkipWs(logger=False)
print(ws('中文字喔'))
for l in ws.apply_list(['中文字喔', '啊哈哈哈']): print(l)

ws.apply_file(ifile='sample/sample.txt', ofile='output/sample.tag', uwfile='output/sample.uw')
with open('output/sample.tag') as fin:
    print(fin.read())
with open('output/sample.uw') as fin:
    print(fin.read())

CKIPParser

CKIP Parser offline driver.

import ckip_classic.parser
print(ckip_classic.__name__, ckip_classic.__version__)

ps = ckip_classic.parser.CkipParser(logger=False)
print(ps('中文字喔'))
for l in ps.apply_list(['中文字喔', '啊哈哈哈']): print(l)

ps.apply_file(ifile='sample/sample.txt', ofile='output/sample.tree')
with open('output/sample.tree') as fin:
    print(fin.read())

CKIPParserClient

CKIP Parser online client.

import ckip_classic.client
print(ckip_classic.__name__, ckip_classic.__version__)

ps = ckip_classic.client.CkipParserClient(username='USERNAME', password='PASSWORD')
print(ps('中文字(Na)　耶(T)　，(COMMACATEGORY)'))
for l in ps.apply_list(['中文字(Na)　耶(T)　，(COMMACATEGORY)', '啊(I)　哈(D)　哈(D)　哈(D)　。(PERIODCATEGORY)']): print(l)

FAQ

Danger

Due to C code implementation, both CkipWs and CkipParser can only be instance once.

Warning

CKIPParser fails if input text contains special characters such as ()+-:|. One may replace these characters by

text = text
   .replace('(', '（')
   .replace(')', '）')
   .replace('+', '＋')
   .replace('-', '－')
   .replace(':', '：')
   .replace('|', '｜')

Install Python development package

sudo apt-get install python3-dev

---

Tip

The CKIPWS throws “what(): locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid”. What should I do?

Install locale data.

apt-get install locales-all
