Lafwebpy - Query the Hebrew OT

Lafwebpy is a python server (using bottle) that exposes ETCBC Hebrew data (using text-fabric) and provides api access to it to return (1) parsing data on words as well as (2) search results and (3) collocations based on search terms.

To interact with all this goodness, we need a fantastic frontend. Enter react-lafwebpy-client.* To use these repositories, clone them both to a parent directory. Lafwebpy is going to serve static content from ../react-lafwebpy-client/build so directory structure is important. React-lafwebpy-client should be good to go (everything is built) but it uses webpack so you can npm install and start playing around with it if you so desire.

To run Lafwebpy, you need text-fabric and bottle. You also need the text-fabric-data. Then you just cd into this directory and:

python3 index.py

Finally, visit localhost:8080/ in your favourite browser.

Optionally, you can specify a port like this:

python3 index.py 8000

NB: Make sure you have 2-4GB of RAM free before doing this or your machine may lock up...

* I find that naming projects kills them, so I prefer to giving them the clunkiest names that immediately spring to mind and that way I work night and day on making them awesome. Lafwebpy is a legacy name that comes from laffabric - the previous implementation of what text-fabric now does a lot better.
