highscore

Easily find and rank keywords in long texts.

2019-10-19 I archived this project as there hasn't been any recent activity and I have moved on to other projects. You can still download and use it though.

Features

Installation

For better blacklist perfomance, use the bloomfilter-rb gem:

To use word stemming, you need to have the fast-stemmer (C extension) or stemmer gem installed:

Examples

text = Highscore::Content.new "foo bar"
text.configure do
  set :multiplier, 2
  set :upper_case, 3
  set :long_words, 2
  set :long_words_threshold, 15
  set :short_words_threshold, 3      # => default: 2
  set :bonus_multiplier, 2           # => default: 3
  set :vowels, 1                     # => default: 0 = not considered
  set :consonants, 5                 # => default: 0 = not considered
  set :ignore_case, true             # => default: false
  set :word_pattern, /[\w]+[^\s0-9]/ # => default: /\w+/
  set :stemming, true                # => default: false
end

# get only the top 50 keywords
text.keywords.top(50).each do |keyword|
  keyword.text   # => keyword text
  keyword.weight # => rank weight (float)
end

# you could also just use a string
keywords = "Foo bar baz".keywords(blacklist) do
  set :multiplier, 10
end

The result is either a Highscore::Keywords object or an Array (depending on whether it's sorted or not) that you can iterate over. Each object in there is a Highscore::Keyword that has methods text and weight.

keywords = "Foo bar is not bar baz".keywords(Highscore::Blacklist.load(['baz']))

keywords.rank.each do |k|
  puts "#{k.text} #{k.weight}"
end

# prints:
# Foo 3.0
# bar 2.0
# not 1.0

Have a look at bin/highscore, you can run highscore on your CLI and feed it with text on STDIN.

Blacklisting and Whitelisting

Using a custom blacklist to ignore keywords

# setting single words
blacklist = Highscore::Blacklist.new
blacklist << 'foo'

# load a string/array
blacklist = Highscore::Blacklist.load "a string"
blacklist = Highscore::Blacklist.load %w{an array}

# loading from a file (separated by whitespace)
blacklist = Highscore::Blacklist.load_file "blacklist.txt"

# loading the default blacklist (falls back automatically if not explicit given)
blacklist = Highscore::Blacklist.load_default_file

# inject the blacklist into the content class
content = Highscore::Content.new "a string", blacklist

Using a whitelist instead of ranking all words

# construct and inject it just like a blacklist
whitelist = Highscore::Whitelist.load %w{these are valid keywords}
content = Highscore::Content.new "invalid words", whitelist

Using bonus words

# construct and inject it just like a blacklist
bonuslist = Highscore::Bonuslist.load %w{bonus words}
content = Highscore::Content.new "A string with bonus words in it", bonuslist

I18n

# Load a default blacklist
blacklist_default = Highscore::Blacklist.load "mister"
text = Highscore::Content.new "oui mister interesting", blacklist_default
text.keywords.top(3).join " "

# => prints "interesting oui"

# Load a rudimentary blacklist for French
blacklist_francais = Highscore::Blacklist.load "oui"
text.add_wordlist blacklist_francais, :french
text.keywords(:lang => :fr).top(3).join " "

# => prints "interesting mister"
