NAME¶
hfst-regexp2fst - =Compile (weighted) regular expressions into transducer(s)
SYNOPSIS¶
hfst-regexp2fst [OPTIONS...] [INFILE]
DESCRIPTION¶
Compile (weighted) regular expressions into transducer(s) Common options:
- -h, --help
 - Print help message
 - -V, --version
 - Print version info
 - -v, --verbose
 - Print verbosely while processing
 - -q, --quiet
 - Only print fatal erros and requested output
 - -s, --silent
 - Alias of --quiet
 
Input/Output options:¶
- -i, --input=INFILE
 - Read input transducer from INFILE
 - -o, --output=OUTFILE
 - Write output transducer to OUTFILE
 
String and format options:¶
- -f, --format=FMT
 - Write result in FMT format
 - -j, --disjunct
 - Disjunct all regexps instead of transforming each regexp into a separate transducer
 - -l, --line
 - Input is line separated (default)
 - -S, --semicolon
 - Input is semicolon separated
 - -e, --epsilon=EPS
 - Map EPS as zero, i.e. epsilon.
 - -x, --xerox-composition=VALUE Whether flag diacritics are treated as ordinary
 - symbols in composition (default is false).
 - -X, --xfst=VARIABLE
 - Toggle xfst compatibility option VARIABLE.
 
Harmonization and optimization options:¶
- -H, --do-not-harmonize
 - Do not expand '?' symbols.
 - -F, --harmonize-flags
 - Harmonize flag diacritics.
 - -E, --encode-weights
 - Encode weights when minimizing (default is false).
 - -M, --do-not-minimize
 - Determinize result instead of minimizing it.
 
If OUTFILE or INFILE is missing or -, standard streams will be used. FMT must be one of the following: {foma, sfst, openfst-tropical, openfst-log}. If EPS is not defined, the default representation of 0 is used VALUEs recognized are {true,ON,yes} and {false,OFF,no}. Xfst variables are {flag-is-epsilon (default OFF)}.
EXAMPLES¶
- echo " {cat}:{dog} " | hfst-regexp2fst
 - create transducer {cat}:{dog}
 - echo " {cat}:{dog}::3 " | hfst-regexp2fst
 - same but with weight 3
 - echo " c:d a:o::3 t:g " | hfst-regexp2fst
 - same but with weight 3 in the middle
 - echo " cat ; dog ; "3" " | hfst-regexp2fst -S
 - create transducers
 
- "cat" and "dog" and "3"
