• Parameter
  summary List of characters which should be used to split tokens name splitChars

  • If not present, then tokens are split on any sequence of punctuation. 

• Parameter
  summary List of characters which will NOT be used to split tokens. name dontSplitChars

  
  
  • This is typically used to identify exceptions (characters which are not used to split tokens) when splitChars is missing.
  • These characters are included in the produced tokens.

• Parameter
  summary if any character in this list occurs inside a token, that token will be split just before that character name splitBeforeChars

• Parameter
  summary if any character in this list occurs inside a token, that token will be split just after that character name splitAfterChars

• Parameter
  summary true/false whether to split on all punctuation (default: true) name splitPrefixChars

• Parameter
  summary true/false whether to split on all punctuation (default: true) name splitSuffixChars

• Parameter
  summary The flag to be put on the vertex between the two tokens. name splitFlag

  
  
  • If missing, defaults to ALL_PUNCTUATION.

Examples

"dontSplitChars": ".",
"splitChars":"-",
"splitFlag":"DASH_SPLIT"

Example Output

"dontSplitChars": "."

{
 "type":"CharacterSplitter",
 "dontSplitChars":"."
}

Splits on all punctuation, except periods periods.

For example, the token:  "SagaToolkit-1.0" will produce the following graph:

V-------[SagaToolkit-1.0]-------V
 ^----[SagaToolkit]--V--[1.0]----^

{
  "type":"CharacterSplitter",
  "splitChars":"-",
  "splitFlag":"DASH_SPLIT"
}

(splits tokens dashes)

Output Flags

Lex-Item Flags:

• TOKEN - All tokens produced are tagged as TOKEN

Vertex Flags:

• ALL_PUNCTUATION - Identifies the vertex as all token
  • The default flag if no "splitFlag" is present.
• <splitFlag> - Defines an alternative flag to ALL_PUNCTUATION, if desired (see above)

Example

...

V-----[Abe-Lincoln]-----V--[likes]--V--[the]--V-----[iPhone-*&@#*&7.0]-----V
^--[Abe]--V--[Lincoln]--^                     ^--[iPhone]--V--[7]--V--[0]--^ 

...

{
	"type":"CharacterSplitter",
	"dontSplitChars": "."
}

V-----[Abe-Lincoln]-----V--[likes]--V--[the]--V--[iPhone-*&@#*&7.0]--V
^--[Abe]--V--[Lincoln]--^                     ^--[iPhone]--V--[7.0]--^

With Split Chars Param

{
	"type":"CharacterSplitter",
	"splitChars": "-#."
	"dontSplitChars": "."
}

V-----[Abe-Lincoln]-----V--[likes]--V--[the]--V--------[iPhone-*&@#*&7.0]--------V
^--[Abe]--V--[Lincoln]--^                     ^--[iPhone]--V--[*&@]--V--[*&7.0]--^
