Senpy lets you create sentiment analysis web services easily, fast and using a well known API. As a bonus, senpy services use semantic vocabularies (e.g. NIF, Marl, Onyx) and formats (turtle, JSON-LD, xml-rdf).

Have you ever wanted to turn your sentiment analysis algorithms into a service? With senpy, now you can. It provides all the tools so you just have to worry about improving your algorithms:

See it in action.

The stable version can be installed in three ways.

pip install -U --user senpy

Alternatively, you can use the development version:

git clone http://github.com/gsi-upm/senpy
cd senpy
pip install --user .

If you want to install senpy globally, use sudo instead of the --user flag.

Build the image or use the pre-built one: docker run -ti -p 5000:5000 gsiupm/senpy --default-plugins.

To add custom plugins, add a volume and tell senpy where to find the plugins: docker run -ti -p 5000:5000 -v <PATH OF PLUGINS>:/plugins gsiupm/senpy --default-plugins -f /plugins

This command will run the senpy container using the latest image available, mounting your current folder so you get your latest code:

# Python 3.5
make dev
# Python 2.7
make dev-2.7

# Python 3.5
make build-3.5
# Python 2.7
make build-2.7

make test

This command will run the senpy server listening on localhost:5000

# Python 3.5
make run-3.5
# Python 2.7
make run-2.7

However, the easiest and recommended way is to just use the command-line tool to load your plugins and launch the server.

senpy

or, alternatively:

python -m senpy

This will create a server with any modules found in the current path. For more options, see the --help page.

Alternatively, you can use the modules included in senpy to build your own application.

Use a free heroku instance to share your service with the world. Just use the example Procfile in this repository, or build your own.
