Getting Started

Requires Java 8 or later. Add the dependency to your Maven pom.xml:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.textrazor</groupId>
  <artifactId>textrazor</artifactId>
  <version>1.0.15</version>
</dependency> 

Maven includes the required Jackson dependencies automatically. Version 1.0.15 uses the Jackson 2.21.7 BOM, which selects jackson-core 2.21.7, jackson-annotations 2.21, and jackson-databind 2.21.7.

For manual installation, download the JAR from Maven Central and include those Jackson JARs on your classpath.

Usage

You'll need a free API key. Set it in the TEXTRAZOR_API_KEY environment variable, then analyze text:

import com.textrazor.TextRazor;
import com.textrazor.annotations.AnalyzedText;
import com.textrazor.annotations.Entity;

TextRazor client = new TextRazor(System.getenv("TEXTRAZOR_API_KEY"));
client.addExtractor("entities");

AnalyzedText result = client.analyze("Apple is based in Cupertino, California.");
for (Entity entity : result.getResponse().getEntities()) {
    System.out.println(entity.getEntityId());
}

Call this code from a method that handles or declares NetworkException and AnalysisException.

Full JavaDoc can be found as part of the package, or you can browse more comprehensive documentation at the TextRazor site.
