node-mecab

==========

node-mecab is a very simple MeCab binding for Node.

Not all features are supported now. 

Requirement

===========

- Node.js >= 0.4.0

- MeCab >= 0.9.7

How to install

==============

You can install mecab-binding from npm repository.

	npm install mecab-binding

You can also make it yourself.

	git clone git://github.com/hakobera/node-mecab-binding

	cd node-mecab-binding

	npm install -g

	npm link

How to use

==========

Simple analyze

--------------

Create Mecab.Tagger instance and call parse() method. You can get a result as string.

Mecab.Tagger constuctor arguments is same as executable mecab command line interface. 

	var MeCab = require('mecab-binding');

	var m = new MeCab.Tagger('-O wakati');

	console.log(m.parse('今日もしないとね'));

This is similar to other language binding.

Mecab.Taggerhttp://mecab.sourceforge.net/mecab.html constuctor arguments is same as executable mecab command line interface listed below.

http://mecab.sourceforge.net/mecab.html

Get more information for each word

----------------------------------

When you call parseToNode() method, you can get special morpheme as Mecab.Node instance. 

	var MeCab = require('mecab-binding');

	var m = new MeCab.Tagger('');

	var n = m.parseToNode('今日もしないとね');

	for (; n; n = n.next()) {

		console.log("%s\t%d", n.feature, n.cost);

	}

Currently, node.surface value cannot get correctly. If your focus is on surface and feature information, you can either use the parse() or the new parseToArray() method:

	var arr = m.parseToArray('今日もしないとね');

	for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i += 2) {

		console.log('Surface: %s\tFeature: %s', arr[i], arr[i + 1]);

	}

Error handling

--------------

If error has occurred, mecab-binding throws Error.

So, if you want to handle it, write try-catch block.

	var MeCab = require('mecab-binding');

	try {

		var m = new MeCab.Tagger('-d .');

		console.log(m.parse('今日もしないとね'));

	} catch (e) {

	  console.log('Illegal argument error occurred.');

		console.log(e);

	}
