# bible-verse-parser
A python parser to parse bible verse references from a text.
This was originally created to tag resources for building https://marvel.bible.
The script is now modified for general use.
This script is now adapted to become a core utility in UniqueBible.app project.
# Features:
1. Search for verse references from text file(s)
2. Add taggings on verse references
3. Support books of bible canon and apocrypha
4. Support tagging on chains of refernces, e.g. Rom 1:2, 3, 5, 8; 9:2, 10
5. Support books of one chapter only, like Obadiah 2, Jude 3, 3John 4, etc.
6. Support chapter references [references without verse number specified], e.g. Gen 1, 3-4; 8, 9-10.
7. Support standardisation of book abbreviations and verse reference format.
8. Support parsing multiple files in one go.
9. Support extracting all references in a text. (This feature is especially useful for bulding indexes.)
10. Support tagging on range(s) of verses
# Main file:
BibleVerseParser.py [written with python version 3.6+]
Use "BibleVerseParser.py" together with "BibleBooks.py" & "RegexSearch.py" in the same directory.
# Usage:
Tag a file, where [file] is the filename:
> python3 BibleVerseParser.py [file]
Tag all files in a folder, where [folder] is the folder name:
> python3 BibleVerseParser.py [folder]
Interactive Mode:
> python3 BibleVerseParser.py
# Format of tagging:
e.g. John 3:16 is tagged as <ref onclick="bcv(43,3,16)">John 3:16</ref>
e.g. John 3:14-16 is tagged as <ref onclick="bcv(43,3,14,3,16)">John 3:14-16</ref>
e.g. John 3:14-4:3 is tagged as <ref onclick="bcv(43,3,14,4,3)">John 3:14-4:3</ref>
# User Interaction:
Prompting question (1) "Enter a file / folder name here: "
Enter the name of a file, which you want to parse.
OR
Enter the name of a directory containing files, which you want you parse.
Prompting question (2) "Do you want to standardise the format of all bible verse references? [YES/NO] "
Enter YES if you want to standardise all verse references with SBL-style-abbreviations and common format like Gen 2:4; Deut 6:4, etc.
Any answers other than "YES" [case-insensitive] skip the standarisation.
# Dart Version

(bible-verse-parser.py is used here to add taggings for bible verse references.)

"Enter a file / folder name here: " dictionary-for-testing.txt
"Do you want to standardise the format of all bible verse references? [YES/NO] " YES
