* Generalize handling of tokenizer special cases
Handle tokenizer special cases more generally by using the Matcher
internally to match special cases after the affix/token_match
tokenization is complete.
Instead of only matching special cases while processing balanced or
nearly balanced prefixes and suffixes, this recognizes special cases in
a wider range of contexts:
* Allows arbitrary numbers of prefixes/affixes around special cases
* Allows special cases separated by infixes
Existing tests/settings that couldn't be preserved as before:
* The emoticon '")' is no longer a supported special case
* The emoticon ':)' in "example:)" is a false positive again
When merged with #4258 (or the relevant cache bugfix), the affix and
token_match properties should be modified to flush and reload all
special cases to use the updated internal tokenization with the Matcher.
* Remove accidentally added test case
* Really remove accidentally added test
* Reload special cases when necessary
Reload special cases when affixes or token_match are modified. Skip
reloading during initialization.
* Update error code number
* Fix offset and whitespace in Matcher special cases
* Fix offset bugs when merging and splitting tokens
* Set final whitespace on final token in inserted special case
* Improve cache flushing in tokenizer
* Separate cache and specials memory (temporarily)
* Flush cache when adding special cases
* Repeated `self._cache = PreshMap()` and `self._specials = PreshMap()`
are necessary due to this bug:
https://github.com/explosion/preshed/issues/21
* Remove reinitialized PreshMaps on cache flush
* Update UD bin scripts
* Update imports for `bin/`
* Add all currently supported languages
* Update subtok merger for new Matcher validation
* Modify blinded check to look at tokens instead of lemmas (for corpora
with tokens but not lemmas like Telugu)
* Use special Matcher only for cases with affixes
* Reinsert specials cache checks during normal tokenization for special
cases as much as possible
* Additionally include specials cache checks while splitting on infixes
* Since the special Matcher needs consistent affix-only tokenization
for the special cases themselves, introduce the argument
`with_special_cases` in order to do tokenization with or without
specials cache checks
* After normal tokenization, postprocess with special cases Matcher for
special cases containing affixes
* Replace PhraseMatcher with Aho-Corasick
Replace PhraseMatcher with the Aho-Corasick algorithm over numpy arrays
of the hash values for the relevant attribute. The implementation is
based on FlashText.
The speed should be similar to the previous PhraseMatcher. It is now
possible to easily remove match IDs and matches don't go missing with
large keyword lists / vocabularies.
Fixes#4308.
* Restore support for pickling
* Fix internal keyword add/remove for numpy arrays
* Add test for #4248, clean up test
* Improve efficiency of special cases handling
* Use PhraseMatcher instead of Matcher
* Improve efficiency of merging/splitting special cases in document
* Process merge/splits in one pass without repeated token shifting
* Merge in place if no splits

Only used for timing/testing, should be a separate PR
* Remove final traces of UD script modifications
* Update UD bin scripts
* Update imports for `bin/`
* Add all currently supported languages
* Update subtok merger for new Matcher validation
* Modify blinded check to look at tokens instead of lemmas (for corpora
with tokens but not lemmas like Telugu)
* Add missing loop for match ID set in search loop
* Remove cruft in matching loop for partial matches
There was a bit of unnecessary code left over from FlashText in the
matching loop to handle partial token matches, which we don't have with
PhraseMatcher.
* Replace dict trie with MapStruct trie
* Fix how match ID hash is stored/added
* Update fix for match ID vocab
* Switch from map_get_unless_missing to map_get
* Switch from numpy array to Token.get_struct_attr
Access token attributes directly in Doc instead of making a copy of the
relevant values in a numpy array.
Add unsatisfactory warning for hash collision with reserved terminal
hash key. (Ideally it would change the reserved terminal hash and redo
the whole trie, but for now, I'm hoping there won't be collisions.)
* Restructure imports to export find_matches
* Implement full remove()
Remove unnecessary trie paths and free unused maps.
Parallel to Matcher, raise KeyError when attempting to remove a match ID
that has not been added.
* Switch to PhraseMatcher.find_matches
* Switch to local cdef functions for span filtering
* Switch special case reload threshold to variable
Refer to variable instead of hard-coded threshold
* Move more of special case retokenize to cdef nogil
Move as much of the special case retokenization to nogil as possible.

* Rewrap stdsort with specific types
* Switch to qsort
* Fix merge

* Revert "Switch to qsort"
This reverts commit a98d71a942.
* Fix specials check while caching
* Modify URL test with emoticons
The multiple suffix tests result in the emoticon `:>`, which is now
retokenized into one token as a special case after the suffixes are
split off.
* Refactor _apply_special_cases()
* Use cdef ints for span info used in multiple spots
* Modify _filter_special_spans() to prefer earlier
Parallel to #4414, modify _filter_special_spans() so that the earlier
span is preferred for overlapping spans of the same length.

Replace MatchStruct with Entity since the existing Entity struct is
nearly identical.
* Replace Entity with more general SpanC
* Replace MatchStruct with SpanC

* Move Turkish lemmas to a json file
Rather than a large dict in Python source, the data is now a big json
file. This includes a method for loading the json file, falling back to
a compressed file, and an update to MANIFEST.in that excludes json in
the spacy/lang directory.
This focuses on Turkish specifically because it has the most language
data in core.
* Transition all lemmatizer.py files to json
This covers all lemmatizer.py files of a significant size (>500k or so).
Small files were left alone.
None of the affected files have logic, so this was pretty
straightforward.
One unusual thing is that the lemma data for Urdu doesn't seem to be
used anywhere. That may require further investigation.
* Move large lang data to json for fr/nb/nl/sv
These are the languages that use a lemmatizer directory (rather than a
single file) and are larger than English.
For most of these languages there were many language data files, in
which case only the large ones (>500k or so) were converted to json. It
may or may not be a good idea to migrate the remaining Python files to
json in the future.
* Fix id lemmas.json
The contents of this file were originally just copied from the Python
source, but that used single quotes, so it had to be properly converted
to json first.
* Add .json.gz to gitignore
This covers the json.gz files built as part of distribution.
* Add language data gzip to build process
Currently this gzip data on every build; it works, but it should be
changed to only gzip when the source file has been updated.
* Remove Danish lemmatizer.py
Missed this when I added the json.
* Update to match latest explosion/srsly#9
The way gzipped json is loaded/saved in srsly changed a bit.
* Only compress language data if necessary
If a .json.gz file exists and is newer than the corresponding json file,
it's not recompressed.
* Move en/el language data to json
This only affected files >500kb, which was nouns for both languages and
the generic lookup table for English.
* Remove empty files in Norwegian tokenizer
It's unclear why, but the Norwegian (nb) tokenizer had empty files for
adj/adv/noun/verb lemmas. This may have been a result of copying the
structure of the English lemmatizer.
This removed the files, but still creates the empty sets in the
lemmatizer. That may not actually be necessary.
* Remove dubious entries in English lookup.json
" furthest" and " skilled" - both prefixed with a space - were in the
English lookup table. That seems obviously wrong so I have removed them.
* Fix small issues with en/fr lemmatizers
The en tokenizer was including the removed _nouns.py file, so that's
removed.
The fr tokenizer is unusual in that it has a lemmatizer directory with
both __init__.py and lemmatizer.py. lemmatizer.py had not been converted
to load the json language data, so that was fixed.

* Add custom MatchPatternError
* Improve validators and add validation option to Matcher
* Adjust formatting
* Never validate in Matcher within PhraseMatcher
If we do decide to make validate default to True, the PhraseMatcher's Matcher shouldn't ever validate. Here, we create the patterns automatically anyways (and it's currently unclear whether the validation has performance impacts at a very large scale).

Resolves#3208.
Prevent interactions with other libraries (pandas) that also access `get_ipython().config` and its parameters. See #3208 for details. I don't fully understand why this happens, but in spaCy, we can at least make sure we avoid calling into this method.

Remove hacks and wrappers, keep code in sync across our libraries and move spaCy a few steps closer to only depending on packages with binary wheels 🎉
See here: https://github.com/explosion/srsly
Serialization is hard, especially across Python versions and multiple platforms. After dealing with many subtle bugs over the years (encodings, locales, large files) our libraries like spaCy and Prodigy have steadily grown a number of utility functions to wrap the multiple serialization formats we need to support (especially json, msgpack and pickle). These wrapping functions ended up duplicated across our codebases, so we wanted to put them in one place.
At the same time, we noticed that having a lot of small dependencies was making maintainence harder, and making installation slower. To solve this, we've made srsly standalone, by including the component packages directly within it. This way we can provide all the serialization utilities we need in a single binary wheel.
srsly currently includes forks of the following packages:
ujson
msgpack
msgpack-numpy
cloudpickle
* WIP: replace json/ujson with srsly
* Replace ujson in examples
Use regular json instead of srsly to make code easier to read and follow
* Update requirements
* Fix imports
* Fix typos
* Replace msgpack with srsly
* Fix warning
* Support nowrap setting in util.prints
* Tidy up and fix whitespace
* Simplify script and use read_jsonl helper
* Add JSON schemas (see #2928)
* Deprecate Doc.print_tree
Will be replaced with Doc.to_json, which will produce a unified format
* Add Doc.to_json() method (see #2928)
Converts Doc objects to JSON using the same unified format as the training data. Method also supports serializing selected custom attributes in the doc._. space.
* Remove outdated test
* Add write_json and write_jsonl helpers
* WIP: Update spacy train
* Tidy up spacy train
* WIP: Use wasabi for formatting
* Add GoldParse helpers for JSON format

- [x] use [`black`](https://github.com/ambv/black) for auto-formatting
- [x] add `flake8` config
- [x] move all messy UD-related scripts to `cli.ud`
- [x] make converters function that take the opened file and return the converted data (instead of having them handle the IO)

Our epic matrix multiplication odyssey is drawing to a close...
I've now finally got the Blis linear algebra routines in a self-contained Python package, with wheels for Windows, Linux and OSX. The only missing platform at the moment is Windows Python 2.7. The result is at https://github.com/explosion/cython-blis
Thinc v7.0.0 will make the change to Blis. I've put a Thinc v7.0.0.dev0 up on PyPi so that we can test these changes with the CI, and even get them out to spacy-nightly, before Thinc v7.0.0 is released. This PR also updates the other dependencies to be in line with the current versions master is using. I've also resolved the msgpack deprecation problems, and gotten spaCy and Thinc up to date with the latest Cython.
The point of switching to Blis is to have control of how our matrix multiplications are executed across platforms. When we were using numpy for this, a different library would be used on pip and conda, OSX would use Accelerate, etc. This would open up different bugs and performance problems, especially when multi-threading was introduced.
With the change to Blis, we now strictly single-thread the matrix multiplications. This will make it much easier to use multiprocessing to parallelise the runtime, since we won't have nested parallelism problems to deal with.
* Use blis
* Use -2 arg to Cython
* Update dependencies
* Fix requirements
* Update setup dependencies
* Fix requirement typo
* Fix msgpack errors
* Remove Python27 test from Appveyor, until Blis works there
* Auto-format setup.py
* Fix murmurhash version
* Add helper function for reading in JSONL
* Add rule-based NER component
* Fix whitespace
* Add component to factories
* Add tests
* Add option to disable indent on json_dumps compat
Otherwise, reading JSONL back in line by line won't work

This patch does a few smallish things that tighten up the training workflow a little, and allow memory use during training to be reduced by letting the GoldCorpus stream data properly.
Previously, the parser and entity recognizer read and saved labels as lists, with extra labels noted separately. Lists were used becaue ordering is very important, to ensure that the label-to-class mapping is stable.
We now manage labels as nested dictionaries, first keyed by the action, and then keyed by the label. Values are frequencies. The trick is, how do we save new labels? We need to make sure we iterate over these in the same order they're added. Otherwise, we'll get different class IDs, and the model's predictions won't make sense.
To allow stable sorting, we map the new labels to negative values. If we have two new labels, they'll be noted as having "frequency" -1 and -2. The next new label will then have "frequency" -3. When we sort by (frequency, label), we then get a stable sort.
Storing frequencies then allows us to make the next nice improvement. Previously we had to iterate over the whole training set, to pre-process it for the deprojectivisation. This led to storing the whole training set in memory. This was most of the required memory during training.
To prevent this, we now store the frequencies as we stream in the data, and deprojectivize as we go. Once we've built the frequencies, we can then apply a frequency cut-off when we decide how many classes to make.
Finally, to allow proper data streaming, we also have to have some way of shuffling the iterator. This is awkward if the training files have multiple documents in them. To solve this, the GoldCorpus class now writes the training data to disk in msgpack files, one per document. We can then shuffle the data by shuffling the paths.
This is a squash merge, as I made a lot of very small commits. Individual commit messages below.

Currently the two parsers live side-by-side, until we figure out how to
organize them.
1. check if in data dir or shortcut link
2. check if installed as a pip package
3. check if string is path to model
4. check if Path or Path-like object
This allows users to set arbitrary strings. (Otherwise, custom lang
class "my_custom_class" would always load Burmese "my" tokenizer if one
was available.)
Previous Sputnik integration caused API change: Vocab, Tagger, etc
were loaded via a from_package classmethod, that required a
sputnik.Package instance. This forced users to first create a
sputnik.Sputnik() instance, in order to acquire a Package via
sp.pool().
Instead I've created a small file-system shim, util.Package, which
allows classes to have a .load() classmethod, that accepts either
util.Package objects, or strings. We can later gut the internals
of this and make it a proxy for Sputnik if we need more functionality
that should live in the Sputnik library.
Sputnik is now only used to download and install the data, in
spacy.en.download
