# Assembly Line Weaver: Suffolk LIT Lab Document Assembly Line

[![PyPI version](https://badge.fury.io/py/docassemble.ALWeaver.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/py/docassemble.ALWeaver)



The Assembly Line Project is a collection of volunteers, students, and institutions who joined together

during the COVID-19 pandemic to help increase access to the court system. Our vision is mobile-friendly,

easy to use **guided** online forms that help empower litigants to access the court remotely.

Our signature project is [CourtFormsOnline.org](https://courtformsonline.org).

We designed a step-by-step, assembly line style process for automating court forms on top of Docassemble

and built several tools along the way that **you** can use in your home jurisdiction.

This package contains an **automation and rapid prototyping tool** to support authoring robust,

consistent, and attractive Docassemble interviews that help complete court forms. Upload a labeled

PDF or DOCX file, and the Assembly Line Weaver will produce a runnable, clean code, draft of a

Docassemble interview that you can continue to edit and refine.

## Installation requirements

### Using auto drafting mode

As of June 2023, the Weaver includes auto drafting mode.

To use the automatic field grouping feature of auto drafting mode,

you need to install either:

1. The `en_core_web_lg` model on your server, or

2. An API token for tools.suffolklitlab.org.

You can request an API token by emailing massaccess@suffolklitlab.org. If you

prefer to install your own copy of the `en_core_web_lg` model, you can

access it the first time you select to use auto drafting mode when logged

in as an administrator.
