Interacting with Dictionary

items = [{'key': 'house',
          'category': 'N',
          'forms': ['house', 'houses']},
         {'key': 'hill',
          'category': 'N',
          'forms': ['hill', 'hills']},
         {'key': 'on',
          'forms': ['on'],
          'category': 'Prep',
          'attributes': {'Operation': 'Syntax.on_Prep/Prep'}},
         {'key': 'the',
          'forms': ['the'],
          'category': 'Det',
          'attributes': {'Operation': 'Syntax.the_Det/Det'}}]

for item in items:
    at.create_dictionary_item(**item)
    
items = at.list_dictionary_items()

Working with Data

Upload a local file

at.upload_data_file('example_data.csv')

{'message': 'Succesfully uploaded file', 'id': 'example_data.csv'}

Create a data file from scratch

Document plans

Open Accelerated Text document plan editor (http://127.0.0.1:8080 by default) and create a new document plan named "House description". More detailed instructions can be found in documentation.

Fetch single document plan

dp = at.get_document_plan(name='House description')
dp['documentPlan']
