title: Matcher
|
|
teaser: Match sequences of tokens, based on pattern rules
|
|
tag: class
|
|
source: spacy/matcher/matcher.pyx
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Matcher.\_\_init\_\_ {#init tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
Create the rule-based `Matcher`. If `validate=True` is set, all patterns added
|
|
to the matcher will be validated against a JSON schema and a `MatchPatternError`
|
|
is raised if problems are found. Those can include incorrect types (e.g. a
|
|
string where an integer is expected) or unexpected property names.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> from spacy.matcher import Matcher
|
|
> matcher = Matcher(nlp.vocab)
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| --------------------------------------- | --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `vocab` | `Vocab` | The vocabulary object, which must be shared with the documents the matcher will operate on. |
|
|
| `validate` <Tag variant="new">2.1</Tag> | bool | Validate all patterns added to this matcher. |
|
|
| **RETURNS** | `Matcher` | The newly constructed object. |
|
|
|
|
## Matcher.\_\_call\_\_ {#call tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
Find all token sequences matching the supplied patterns on the `Doc` or `Span`.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> from spacy.matcher import Matcher
|
|
>
|
|
> matcher = Matcher(nlp.vocab)
|
|
> pattern = [{"LOWER": "hello"}, {"LOWER": "world"}]
|
|
> matcher.add("HelloWorld", [pattern])
|
|
> doc = nlp("hello world!")
|
|
> matches = matcher(doc)
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| ----------- | ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
| `doclike` | `Doc`/`Span` | The `Doc` or `Span` to match over. |
|
|
| **RETURNS** | list | A list of `(match_id, start, end)` tuples, describing the matches. A match tuple describes a span `doc[start:end`]. The `match_id` is the ID of the added match pattern. |
|
|
|
|
## Matcher.pipe {#pipe tag="method"}
|
|
|
|
Match a stream of documents, yielding them in turn.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> from spacy.matcher import Matcher
|
|
> matcher = Matcher(nlp.vocab)
|
|
> for doc in matcher.pipe(docs, batch_size=50):
|
|
> pass
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| --------------------------------------------- | -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `docs` | iterable | A stream of documents. |
|
|
| `batch_size` | int | The number of documents to accumulate into a working set. |
|
|
| `return_matches` <Tag variant="new">2.1</Tag> | bool | Yield the match lists along with the docs, making results `(doc, matches)` tuples. |
|
|
| `as_tuples` | bool | Interpret the input stream as `(doc, context)` tuples, and yield `(result, context)` tuples out. If both `return_matches` and `as_tuples` are `True`, the output will be a sequence of `((doc, matches), context)` tuples. |
|
|
| **YIELDS** | `Doc` | Documents, in order. |
|
|
|
|
## Matcher.\_\_len\_\_ {#len tag="method" new="2"}
|
|
|
|
Get the number of rules added to the matcher. Note that this only returns the
|
|
number of rules (identical with the number of IDs), not the number of individual
|
|
patterns.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> matcher = Matcher(nlp.vocab)
|
|
> assert len(matcher) == 0
|
|
> matcher.add("Rule", [[{"ORTH": "test"}]])
|
|
> assert len(matcher) == 1
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| ----------- | ---- | -------------------- |
|
|
| **RETURNS** | int | The number of rules. |
|
|
|
|
## Matcher.\_\_contains\_\_ {#contains tag="method" new="2"}
|
|
|
|
Check whether the matcher contains rules for a match ID.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> matcher = Matcher(nlp.vocab)
|
|
> assert "Rule" not in matcher
|
|
> matcher.add("Rule", [[{'ORTH': 'test'}]])
|
|
> assert "Rule" in matcher
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| ----------- | ---- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `key` | str | The match ID. |
|
|
| **RETURNS** | bool | Whether the matcher contains rules for this match ID. |
|
|
|
|
## Matcher.add {#add tag="method" new="2"}
|
|
|
|
Add a rule to the matcher, consisting of an ID key, one or more patterns, and a
|
|
callback function to act on the matches. The callback function will receive the
|
|
arguments `matcher`, `doc`, `i` and `matches`. If a pattern already exists for
|
|
the given ID, the patterns will be extended. An `on_match` callback will be
|
|
overwritten.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> def on_match(matcher, doc, id, matches):
|
|
> print('Matched!', matches)
|
|
>
|
|
> matcher = Matcher(nlp.vocab)
|
|
> patterns = [
|
|
> [{"LOWER": "hello"}, {"LOWER": "world"}],
|
|
> [{"ORTH": "Google"}, {"ORTH": "Maps"}]
|
|
> ]
|
|
> matcher.add("TEST_PATTERNS", patterns)
|
|
> doc = nlp("HELLO WORLD on Google Maps.")
|
|
> matches = matcher(doc)
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
<Infobox title="Changed in v3.0" variant="warning">
|
|
|
|
As of spaCy v3.0, `Matcher.add` takes a list of patterns as the second argument
|
|
(instead of a variable number of arguments). The `on_match` callback becomes an
|
|
optional keyword argument.
|
|
|
|
```diff
|
|
patterns = [[{"TEXT": "Google"}, {"TEXT": "Now"}], [{"TEXT": "GoogleNow"}]]
|
|
- matcher.add("GoogleNow", on_match, *patterns)
|
|
+ matcher.add("GoogleNow", patterns, on_match=on_match)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</Infobox>
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| ---------- | ------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `match_id` | str | An ID for the thing you're matching. |
|
|
| `patterns` | list | Match pattern. A pattern consists of a list of dicts, where each dict describes a token. |
|
|
| `on_match` | callable or `None` | Callback function to act on matches. Takes the arguments `matcher`, `doc`, `i` and `matches`. |
|
|
|
|
## Matcher.remove {#remove tag="method" new="2"}
|
|
|
|
Remove a rule from the matcher. A `KeyError` is raised if the match ID does not
|
|
exist.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> matcher.add("Rule", [[{"ORTH": "test"}]])
|
|
> assert "Rule" in matcher
|
|
> matcher.remove("Rule")
|
|
> assert "Rule" not in matcher
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| ----- | ---- | ------------------------- |
|
|
| `key` | str | The ID of the match rule. |
|
|
|
|
## Matcher.get {#get tag="method" new="2"}
|
|
|
|
Retrieve the pattern stored for a key. Returns the rule as an
|
|
`(on_match, patterns)` tuple containing the callback and available patterns.
|
|
|
|
> #### Example
|
|
>
|
|
> ```python
|
|
> matcher.add("Rule", [[{"ORTH": "test"}]])
|
|
> on_match, patterns = matcher.get("Rule")
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
| Name | Type | Description |
|
|
| ----------- | ----- | --------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `key` | str | The ID of the match rule. |
|
|
| **RETURNS** | tuple | The rule, as an `(on_match, patterns)` tuple. |
