Project description

ipapy is a Python module to work with IPA strings.

Installation

$ pip install ipapy

or

$ git clone https://github.com/pettarin/ipapy.git
$ cd ipapy

Usage

from ipapy.ipastring import IPAString
from ipapy.ipachar import IPADiacritic

# Unicode string for "Italian style"
s = u"iˈtaljans ˈtail"

# check if s contains only IPA characters (yes)
if IPAString.is_valid_ipa(s):
    print("s is a valid IPA string")

# create IPA string from Unicode string
s_ipa = IPAString(unicode_string=s)

# print the IPAString
print(unicode(s_ipa))   # Python 2
print(s_ipa)            # Python 3

# print the IPAString (Python 3)
print(s_ipa)

# new IPAStrings containing only...
s_cv = s.cns_vwl                # vowels and consonants
s_cvs = s.cns_vwl_str           # + stress marks
s_cvsl = s.cns_vwl_str_len      # + lenght marks
s_cvslw = s.cns_vwl_str_len_wb  # + word breaks

# iterate over each IPA char, print it, and,
# if it is a diacritic, print its properties
for c_ipa in s_ipa:
    print(c_ipa)
    if isinstance(c_ipa, IPADiacritic):
        print(c_ipa.properties)

# print the name and properties of all the vowels in the string
for c_ipa in [c for c in s_ipa if c.is_vowel]:
    print(u"%s => %s" % (c_ipa, c_ipa.name))

# print the name and properties of all the consonants in the string
for c_ipa in [c for c in s_ipa if c.is_consonant]:
    print(u"%s => %s" % (c_ipa, c_ipa.name))
