Crate mmi_parser

This crate exists to support the primary functions of the MMI parser command line tool.

The primary reference for the field information is found here and relies on MetaMap 2016 or newer.

The main functionality is encompassed in MmiOutput, AaOutput, and parse_record.

For questions on implementations of the parsing algorithms for specific sections, please consult the source which contains well-labeled and fairly documented functions to parse each type.

Structs

AaOutput

Main “Secondary” struct of program Acronyms and Abbreviations detected by MetaMap

AaPosInfo

Abbreviation and Acronym position information

MmiOutput

Main struct for entire library. Represents an entire fielded MMI record as one type.

Position

Structure for Position representing start index, length, and Position Type.

Trigger

Struct to represent Trigger information.

ValueError occurs when an invalid value was provided

Enums

AbbreviationType

Which type of abbreviation (AA) record exists, either AA or UA (user-defined)

Functions

check_parts

Simple utility function to check whether

label_aa_parts

Labels AA records with the corresponding field names

parse_position_parts

parse_record

A better alternative to MmiOutput::assemble or AaOutput::assemble Takes a string reference, splits it on vertical bar (pipe) characters, labels each item with its corresponding field name, passes labeled data into MmiOutput::assemble or AaOutput::assemble.
