Choco-Mufin

[CHaracter Ocr COordination for MUFI iN texts]

Tools for normalizing the use of some characters and checking file consistencies. Mainly target at dealing with overly diverse ways to transcribe medieval data (allographetic and graphematic for example) while keeping information such as abbreviation, hence MUFI.

Install

pip install chocomufin

Commands

The workflow is generally the following: you generate a conversion table (chocomufin generate table.csv your-files.xml), then use this table to either control (chocomufin control table.csv your-files.xml) or convert them (chocomufin convert table.csv your-files.xml). Conversion will automatically add a suffix which you can define with --suffix.

Example table of conversion

char,name,replacement,codepoint,mufidecode
ī,LATIN SMALL LETTER I WITH MACRON,ĩ,012B,i
ı,LATIN SMALL LETTER DOTLESS I,i,0131,i
ff,LATIN SMALL LIGATURE FF,ff,FB00,ff
A,LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A,A,0041,A
B,LATIN CAPITAL LETTER B,B,0042,B
C,LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C,C,0043,C
D,LATIN CAPITAL LETTER D,D,0044,D

As table:

char	name	replacement	codepoint	mufidecode
ī	LATIN SMALL LETTER I WITH MACRON	ĩ	012B	i
ı	LATIN SMALL LETTER DOTLESS I	i	0131	i
ff	LATIN SMALL LIGATURE FF	ff	FB00	ff
A	LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A	A	0041	A
B	LATIN CAPITAL LETTER B	B	0042	B
C	LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C	C	0043	C
D	LATIN CAPITAL LETTER D	D	0044	D

Github Action Template

Just replace the path to table.csv and the file that needs to be tested, then save this file on your repository in .github/workflows/chocomufin.yml:

# This workflow will install Python dependencies, run tests and lint with a single version of Python
