doccano-cbie

This is a fork of the doccano project, with the goal of adding new features and improvements to the original project as described in the thesis Implementierung einer Web-basierten Oberfläche zur Annotation von Daten für Named Entity Recognition auf der Basis von verschiedenen Textformaten in Azure (Implementation of a web-based interface for named entity recognition data annotation of different text formats in Azure)

Detailed documentation on the addition of new import and export formats for NER, the core of this thesis, can be found in add-formats.md.

Codacy Badge doccano CI

doccano is an open-source text annotation tool for humans. It provides annotation features for text classification, sequence labeling, and sequence to sequence tasks. You can create labeled data for sentiment analysis, named entity recognition, text summarization, and so on. Just create a project, upload data, and start annotating. You can build a dataset in hours.

Documentation

Features

  • Collaborative annotation
  • Multi-language support
  • Mobile support
  • Emoji 😄 support
  • Dark theme
  • RESTful API

Usage

There are three options to run doccano:

  • pip (Python 3.8+)
  • Docker
  • Docker Compose

pip

To install doccano, run:

pip install doccano

By default, SQLite 3 is used for the default database. If you want to use PostgreSQL, install the additional dependencies:

pip install 'doccano[postgresql]'

and set the DATABASE_URL environment variable according to your PostgreSQL credentials:

DATABASE_URL="postgres://${POSTGRES_USER}:${POSTGRES_PASSWORD}@${POSTGRES_HOST}:${POSTGRES_PORT}/${POSTGRES_DB}?sslmode=disable"

After installation, run the following commands:

# Initialize database.
doccano init
# Create a super user.
doccano createuser --username admin --password pass
# Start a web server.
doccano webserver --port 8000

In another terminal, run the command:

# Start the task queue to handle file upload/download.
doccano task

Go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/.

Docker

As a one-time setup, create a Docker container as follows:

docker pull doccano/doccano
docker container create --name doccano \
  -e "ADMIN_USERNAME=admin" \
  -e "[email protected]" \
  -e "ADMIN_PASSWORD=password" \
  -v doccano-db:/data \
  -p 8000:8000 doccano/doccano

Next, start doccano by running the container:

docker container start doccano

Go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/.

To stop the container, run docker container stop doccano -t 5. All data created in the container will persist across restarts.

If you want to use the latest features, specify the nightly tag:

docker pull doccano/doccano:nightly

Docker Compose

You need to install Git and clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/doccano/doccano.git
cd doccano

Note for Windows developers: Be sure to configure git to correctly handle line endings or you may encounter status code 127 errors while running the services in future steps. Running with the git config options below will ensure your git directory correctly handles line endings.

git clone https://github.com/doccano/doccano.git --config core.autocrlf=input

Then, create an .env file with variables in the following format (see ./docker/.env.example):

# platform settings
ADMIN_USERNAME=admin
ADMIN_PASSWORD=password
[email protected]

# rabbit mq settings
RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_USER=doccano
RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_PASS=doccano

# database settings
POSTGRES_USER=doccano
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=doccano
POSTGRES_DB=doccano

After running the following command, access http://127.0.0.1/.

docker-compose -f docker/docker-compose.prod.yml --env-file .env up
