Wakati (space-delimited surface form) Output

$ cat lemon.txt
えたいの知れない不吉な塊が私の心を始終圧えつけていた。
焦躁と言おうか、嫌悪と言おうか――酒を飲んだあとに宿酔があるように、酒を毎日飲んでいると宿酔に相当した時期がやって来る。
それが来たのだ。これはちょっといけなかった。

$ sudachi --wakati lemon.txt
えたい の 知れ ない 不吉 な 塊 が 私 の 心 を 始終 圧え つけ て い た 。
焦躁 と 言おう か 、 嫌悪 と 言おう か ― ― 酒 を 飲ん だ あと に 宿酔 が ある よう に 、 酒 を 毎日 飲ん で いる と 宿酔 に 相当 し た 時期 が やっ て 来る 。
それ が 来 た の だ 。 これ は ちょっと いけ なかっ た 。

Setup

You need sudachi.rs, default plugins, and a dictionary. (This crate don't include dictionary.)

1. Get the source code

$ git clone https://github.com/WorksApplications/sudachi.rs.git

2. Download a Sudachi Dictionary

Sudachi requires a dictionary to operate. You can download a dictionary ZIP file from WorksApplications/SudachiDict (choose one from small, core, or full), unzip it, and place the system_*.dic file somewhere. By the default setting file, sudachi.rs assumes that it is placed at resources/system.dic.

Convenience Script

Optionally, you can use the fetch_dictionary.sh shell script to download a dictionary and install it to resources/system.dic.

$ ./fetch_dictionary.sh

3. Build

$ cargo build --release

Build (bake dictionary into binary)

This was un-implemented and does not work currently, see #35

Specify the bake_dictionary feature to embed a dictionary into the binary. The sudachi executable will contain the dictionary binary. The baked dictionary will be used if no one is specified via cli option or setting file.

You must specify the path the dictionary file in the SUDACHI_DICT_PATH environment variable when building. SUDACHI_DICT_PATH is relative to the sudachi.rs directory (or absolute).

Example on Unix-like system:

# Download dictionary to resources/system.dic
$ ./fetch_dictionary.sh

# Build with bake_dictionary feature (relative path)
$ env SUDACHI_DICT_PATH=resources/system.dic cargo build --release --features bake_dictionary

# or

# Build with bake_dictionary feature (absolute path)
$ env SUDACHI_DICT_PATH=/path/to/my-sudachi.dic cargo build --release --features bake_dictionary

4. Install

sudachi.rs/ $ cargo install --path sudachi-cli/

$ which sudachi
/Users/<USER>/.cargo/bin/sudachi

$ sudachi -h

  dump

  help
          Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)

Arguments:

          Input text file: If not present, read from STDIN

Options:
  -r, --config-file <CONFIG_FILE>
          Path to the setting file in JSON format
  -p, --resource_dir <RESOURCE_DIR>
          Path to the root directory of resources

          Outputs only surface form
  -d, --debug
          Debug mode: Print the debug information
  -l, --dict <DICTIONARY_PATH>
          Path to sudachi dictionary. If None, it refer config and then baked dictionary
      --split-sentences <SPLIT_SENTENCES>
          How to split sentences [default: yes]
  -h, --help
          Print help (see more with '--help')
  -V, --version
          Print version

Output

Columns are tab separated.

• Surface
• Part-of-Speech Tags (comma separated)
• Normalized Form

When you add the -a (--all) flag, it additionally outputs

• Dictionary Form
• Reading Form
• Dictionary ID
  • 0 for the system dictionary
  • 1 and above for the user dictionaries
  • -1 if a word is Out-of-Vocabulary (not in the dictionary)
• Synonym group IDs
• (OOV) if a word is Out-of-Vocabulary (not in the dictionary)

$ echo "外国人参政権" | sudachi -a
外国人参政権    名詞,普通名詞,一般,*,*,*        外国人参政権    外国人参政権    ガイコクジンサンセイケン      0       []
EOS

echo "阿quei" | sudachipy -a
阿      名詞,普通名詞,一般,*,*,*        阿      阿              -1      []      (OOV)
quei    名詞,普通名詞,一般,*,*,*        quei    quei            -1      []      (OOV)
EOS

When you add -w (--wakati) flag, it outputs space-delimited surface instead.

$ echo "外国人参政権" | sudachi -m A -w
外国 人 参政 権

ToDo

• Out of Vocabulary handling
• Easy dictionary file install & management, similar to SudachiPy
• Registration to crates.io
