• Remove/replace stopwords.
• Remove/replace punctuation.
• Remove/replace numbers.
• Remove/replace emails.

See our docs for more information

Installation

pip install -U spacy-cleaner

or install with Poetry

poetry add spacy-cleaner

📖 Example

spacy-cleaner can clean text written in any language spaCy has a model for:

import spacy
from spacy_cleaner import processing, Cleaner

model = spacy.load("en_core_web_sm")

Class Pipeline allows for configurable cleaning of text using spaCy. The Pipeline is initialised with a model and functions that transform spaCy tokens:

 cleaner = Cleaner( 
    model,
    processing.remove_stopword_token,
    processing.replace_punctuation_token,
    processing.mutate_lemma_token,
)

Next the pipeline can be called with the method clean to clean a list of texts:

texts = ["Hello, my name is Cellan! I love to swim!"]

cleaner.clean(texts)

About the method clean...

The method clean is a wrapper around the spaCy Language class method pipe. Check the docs for more information:

https://spacy.io/api/language#pipe

Giving the output:

['hello _IS_PUNCT_ Cellan _IS_PUNCT_ love swim _IS_PUNCT_']
