A simple configurable tool for manipulating dependency trees.
DepEdit reads and writes files encoded in the CoNLLX or CoNLLU dependency format (10 columns). It's a simple Python script which can change token attributes, token text, part of speech dependency function and other columns, as well as rewiring dependency graphs based on rules. You can also use it to add annotations to each sentence based on properties of the subgraph (see the English example of tagging rough sentence type in examples/)
To use the script, either copy the file depedit/depedit.py into your project, or install it from PyPI:
pip install depedit
usage: depedit.py [-h] [-c CONFIG] [-d] [-s] [-k {supertoks,comments,both}]
[-q] [--stepwise] [-o OUTDIR] [-e EXTENSION] [-i INFIX]
[--version]
file
positional arguments:
file Input single file name or glob pattern to process a
batch (e.g. *.conll10)
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-c CONFIG, --config CONFIG
Configuration file defining transformation
-d, --docname Begin output with # newdoc id =...
-s, --sent_id Add running sentence ID comments
-k {supertoks,comments,both}, --kill {supertoks,comments,both}
Remove supertokens or commments from output
-q, --quiet Do not output warnings and messages
--stepwise Output sentence repeatedly after each step (useful for
debugging)
--version show program's version number and exit
Batch mode options:
-o OUTDIR, --outdir OUTDIR
Output directory in batch mode
-e EXTENSION, --extension EXTENSION
Extension for output files in batch mode
-i INFIX, --infix INFIX
Infix to denote edited files in batch mode (default:
.depedit)
