An English-language dictionary and thesaurus in a Go package by Karan Goel.
Golang port of the Python counterpart.
For a given word, Vocabulary will give you:
- Meaning
- Synonyms
- Antonyms
- Part of speech: whether the word is a noun, interjection or an adverb et el
- Usage example: a quick example on how to use the word in a sentence
- Written in idiomatic Go
- No external dependencies
- So easy, a five-year-old can use it
- Works on Mac, Linux and Windows.
$ go get -u github.com/karan/vocabulary- Required for
Antonyms
- Required for
PartOfSpeech
Calling vocabulary.Word() with any word as a string will return a vocabulary.Word type object that has all possible information about it.
Or if you just want selective information, you can call individual functions passing in a word (vocabulary.Meanings("hallucination")).
package main
// Simple example usage of
// github.com/karan/vocabulary
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/karan/vocabulary"
)
func main() {
// Set the API keys
// Some functions require API keys. Refer to docs.
// If API keys are not required, simple set empty strings as config:
c := &vocabulary.Config{BigHugeLabsApiKey: BigHugeLabsApiKey, WordnikApiKey: WordnikApiKey}
// Instantiate a Vocabulary object with your config
v, err := vocabulary.New(c)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
// Create a new vocabulary.Word object, and collects all possible information.
word, err := v.Word("vuvuzela")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Printf("word.Word = %s \n", word.Word)
fmt.Printf("word.Meanings = %s \n", word.Meanings)
fmt.Printf("word.Synonyms = %s \n", word.Synonyms)
fmt.Printf("word.Antonyms = %s \n", word.Antonyms)
fmt.Printf("word.PartOfSpeech = %s \n", word.PartOfSpeech)
fmt.Printf("word.UsageExample = %s \n", word.UsageExample)
// Get just the synonyms
// synonyms, err := v.Synonyms("area")
// if err != nil {
// log.Fatal(err)
// }
// for _, s := range synonyms {
// fmt.Println(s)
// }
//
// Get just the antonyms
// ants, err := v.Antonyms("love")
// if err != nil {
// log.Fatal(err)
// }
// for _, a := range ants {
// fmt.Println(a)
// }
// Get just the part of speech
// pos, err := v.PartOfSpeech("love")
// if err != nil {
// log.Fatal(err)
// }
// for _, a := range pos {
// fmt.Println(a)
// }
// Can also use:
// v.UsageExample(word)
}Create examples/api_keys.go with your API keys:
package main
const (
BigHugeLabsApiKey = "xxxx"
WordnikApiKey = "xxxx"
)Then, to run the tests, use this command:
$ go test
