An API with 2 endpoint: word_counter.py and word_statistics.py.
word_counter.py- receives a text input and counts the number of appearances for each word in the inputword_statistics.py- receives a word and returns the number of times the word appeared so far (in all previous calls)
1.Clone the project
2.Go to the directory where you cloned the project to and run a command line
3.Install requirements
pip install -r requirements.txt
4.Run the API using:
py api.py
Now you can use the two endpoints: wordscounter and statistics.
When using the Counter endpoint there are 3 options:
Insert a path to a text file:
POST http://127.0.0.1:5000/wordscounter?source=file_path/file.txt&type=string
Got it!
Insert a URL to text:
POST http://127.0.0.1:5000/wordscounter?type=url&source=http://www.textfiles.com/100/hack11a.txt
Got it!
Insert a string:
POST http://127.0.0.1:5000/wordscounter?type=url&source="Hey Lemonade! looking forward to hearing from you :)"
Got it!
Get the number of times a word appeared so far:
GET http://127.0.0.1:5000/statistics?word=lemonade
The word "lemonade" appeared so far 12 times
Reset all words in counter:
DELETE http://127.0.0.1:5000/statistics
Counter was reset
- All given texts are encoded by 'utf-8' format
- Only alphabet consecutive sequences ('a'-'z' or 'A'-'Z') counts as words
- All words are considered as case insensitive
- Any non-alphabet char will be considered as a separator between chars sequences - words
a string => the dictionary that the counter creates from it: {'word': number of appearances}
Me ME mE => {'me': 3}
me2 => {'me': 1}
m2e => {'m': 1, 'e': 1}
{[(me)]} => {'me': 1}
m&$@e => {'m': 1, 'e': 1}
@$me#% => {'me': 1}
me,me => {'me': 2}
me.me => {'me': 2}
me-me => {'me': 2}
me@#$me => {'me': 2}
Me ME mE me-me- me2 2me me,me.me, .me. -me- => {'me': 12}
m#@e $#m$$e %^m_*e5 &7m09e2 => {'m': 4, 'e': 4}
mmee meme => {'mmee': 1, 'meme': 1}
The project's folder includes tests.py file that contains a unittest for the component
