This module can be used to replace keywords in sentences or extract keywords from sentences. It is based on the `FlashText algorithm `_.

Installation
------------
::

$ pip install flashtext

API doc
-------

Documentation can be found at `FlashText Read the Docs
`_.

Usage
-----
Extract keywords
>>> from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
>>> keyword_processor = KeywordProcessor()
>>> # keyword_processor.add_keyword(, )
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('Big Apple', 'New York')
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('Bay Area')
>>> keywords_found = keyword_processor.extract_keywords('I love Big Apple and Bay Area.')
>>> keywords_found
>>> # ['New York', 'Bay Area']

Replace keywords
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('New Delhi', 'NCR region')
>>> new_sentence = keyword_processor.replace_keywords('I love Big Apple and new delhi.')
>>> new_sentence
>>> # 'I love New York and NCR region.'

Case Sensitive example
>>> from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
>>> keyword_processor = KeywordProcessor(case_sensitive=True)
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('Big Apple', 'New York')
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('Bay Area')
>>> keywords_found = keyword_processor.extract_keywords('I love big Apple and Bay Area.')
>>> keywords_found
>>> # ['Bay Area']

Span of keywords extracted
>>> from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
>>> keyword_processor = KeywordProcessor()
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('Big Apple', 'New York')
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('Bay Area')
>>> keywords_found = keyword_processor.extract_keywords('I love big Apple and Bay Area.', span_info=True)
>>> keywords_found
>>> # [('New York', 7, 16), ('Bay Area', 21, 29)]

Get Extra information with keywords extracted
>>> from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
>>> kp = KeywordProcessor()
>>> kp.add_keyword('Taj Mahal', ('Monument', 'Taj Mahal'))
>>> kp.add_keyword('Delhi', ('Location', 'Delhi'))
>>> kp.extract_keywords('Taj Mahal is in Delhi.')
>>> # [('Monument', 'Taj Mahal'), ('Location', 'Delhi')]
>>> # NOTE: replace_keywords feature won't work with this.

No clean name for Keywords
>>> from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
>>> keyword_processor = KeywordProcessor()
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('Big Apple')
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('Bay Area')
>>> keywords_found = keyword_processor.extract_keywords('I love big Apple and Bay Area.')
>>> keywords_found
>>> # ['Big Apple', 'Bay Area']

Add Multiple Keywords simultaneously
>>> from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
>>> keyword_processor = KeywordProcessor()
>>> keyword_dict = {
>>> "java": ["java_2e", "java programing"],
>>> "product management": ["PM", "product manager"]
>>> }
>>> # {'clean_name': ['list of unclean names']}
>>> keyword_processor.add_keywords_from_dict(keyword_dict)
>>> # Or add keywords from a list:
>>> keyword_processor.add_keywords_from_list(["java", "python"])
>>> keyword_processor.extract_keywords('I am a product manager for a java_2e platform')
>>> # output ['product management', 'java']

To Remove keywords
>>> from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
>>> keyword_processor = KeywordProcessor()
>>> keyword_dict = {
>>> "java": ["java_2e", "java programing"],
>>> "product management": ["PM", "product manager"]
>>> }
>>> keyword_processor.add_keywords_from_dict(keyword_dict)
>>> print(keyword_processor.extract_keywords('I am a product manager for a java_2e platform'))
>>> # output ['product management', 'java']
>>> keyword_processor.remove_keyword('java_2e')
>>> # you can also remove keywords from a list/ dictionary
>>> keyword_processor.remove_keywords_from_dict({"product management": ["PM"]})
>>> keyword_processor.remove_keywords_from_list(["java programing"])
>>> keyword_processor.extract_keywords('I am a product manager for a java_2e platform')
>>> # output ['product management']

To check Number of terms in KeywordProcessor
>>> from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
>>> keyword_processor = KeywordProcessor()
>>> keyword_dict = {
>>> "java": ["java_2e", "java programing"],
>>> "product management": ["PM", "product manager"]
>>> }
>>> keyword_processor.add_keywords_from_dict(keyword_dict)
>>> print(len(keyword_processor))
>>> # output 4

To check if term is present in KeywordProcessor
>>> from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
>>> keyword_processor = KeywordProcessor()
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('j2ee', 'Java')
>>> 'j2ee' in keyword_processor
>>> # output: True
>>> keyword_processor.get_keyword('j2ee')
>>> # output: Java
>>> keyword_processor['colour'] = 'color'
>>> keyword_processor['colour']
>>> # output: color

Get all keywords in dictionary
>>> from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
>>> keyword_processor = KeywordProcessor()
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('j2ee', 'Java')
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('colour', 'color')
>>> keyword_processor.get_all_keywords()
>>> # output: {'colour': 'color', 'j2ee': 'Java'}

For detecting Word Boundary currently any character other than this `\\w` `[A-Za-z0-9_]` is considered a word boundary.

To set or add characters as part of word characters
>>> from flashtext import KeywordProcessor
>>> keyword_processor = KeywordProcessor()
>>> keyword_processor.add_keyword('Big Apple')
>>> print(keyword_processor.extract_keywords('I love Big Apple/Bay Area.'))
>>> # ['Big Apple']
>>> keyword_processor.add_non_word_boundary('/')
>>> print(keyword_processor.extract_keywords('I love Big Apple/Bay Area.'))
>>> # []

Why not Regex?
--------------

It's a custom algorithm based on `Aho-Corasick algorithm
`_ and `Trie Dictionary
`_.

Link to code for benchmarking the `Find Feature `_ and `Replace Feature `_.

The idea for this library came from the following `StackOverflow question
`_.
