  >>> dracor = DraCor()

• Summary in a dictionary

  >>> dracor.summary()

• Summary in a string

  >>> str(dracor)

• DraCor info in a dictionary

  >>> dracor.dracor_info()

Corpus

• Initialize a Corpus instance

  >>> corpus = Corpus('rus')
  >>> corpus = Corpus('cal')
  ...

• Summary in a dictionary

  >>> corpus.summary()

• Summary in a string

  >>> str(corpus)

  >>> corpus.filter(
      id__in=frozenset(f"rus000{num:03d}" for num in range(0, 250, 2)),
      subtitle__icontains='комедия',
      author__name__contains='Крылов'
  )
  >>> corpus.filter(name__contains='mysl')
  >>> corpus.filter(title__exact='Мысль')
  >>> corpus.filter(
      year_normalized__in=frozenset(['1935', '1936'])
      source_url__contains='lib'
  )
  >>> corpus.filter(wikidata_id__iexact='Q1989636')
  >>> corpus.filter(networkdata_csv_url__icontains='/andreyev-ne-ubiy/')
