Word Suggestions Approach

Installing

Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your build file

allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...
        maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
    }
}

Step 2. Add the dependency

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.github.Socret360:akara-android:Tag'
}

Step 3. Use the package

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
    lateinit var akara: Akara

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

        akara = Akara(this)

        val sentence = "ឯងនេះមួយយប់ៗដេកខ្វល់រឿងអនាគតមិនដឹងធ្វើអីចិញ្ចឹមខ្លួនមួយនេះរស់"

        akara.suggest(input, object: OnSuggestionListener {
            override fun onCompleted(
                suggestionType: SuggestionType?,
                suggestions: List<String>,
                sequences: List<Sequence>,
                words: List<String>
            ) {
                Log.d(TAG, "input: $input")
                Log.d(TAG, "sequences: $sequences")
                Log.d(TAG, "words: $words")
                Log.d(TAG, "suggestions: ${suggestions.take(3)}")
                Log.d(TAG, "suggestion_type: $suggestionType")
                Log.d(TAG, "======")
            }

            override fun onError() {
                Log.d(TAG, "$input: Cannot provide suggestions")
            }
        })
    }
}
