Getting synset details #12

Closed mehmetilker closed 8 years ago

mehmetilker commented 8 years ago

Is it possible to get all the details for the word in one function call ? What I mean with details is that when we look up a word in wordnet portal we can see synset details as antonym, torponym, hypernym, sister term etc. (even frequency counts)

One way to do it, if I am not wrong iterate over ptrs node and get details for the synset by Id. In this case @ symbol is direct hypernym I guess. (and others +, ~, $ ...)

Sorry for late reply. That's right -- you can loop over the ptrs and use the new (added in version 1.1) seek() method. You'll have to decode the WordNet symbols yourself.

You may also want to look at wordnet-magic which provides some of these methods, if it meets your perf requirements.

Same problem there... I am still trying to figure out callback hell... Efficient and proper way to get definition + relations... Plus it uses sql lite 450MB file, which I could not make it work in the cloud...

Thank you for your answer and work.
