emuR (version 1.0.0)

runBASwebservice_pho2sylCanonical: Adds syllabified word labels to a word level that already contains canonical pronunciations.

Description

This function calls the webservice Pho2Syl to add syllabified canonical pronunciation labels to a word level that already contains unsyllabified canonical pronunciation labels (as can be derived using runBASwebservice_g2pForPronunciation). This function requires an internet connection.

Usage

runBASwebservice_pho2sylCanonical(handle, canoAttributeDefinitionName, language,
  canoSylAttributeDefinitionName = "KAS", params = list(), patience = 0,
  resume = FALSE, verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

handle

emuDB handle

canoAttributeDefinitionName

name of the attribute (not level!) containing a canonical pronunciation of the words.

language

language(s) to be used. If you pass a single string (e.g. "deu-DE"), this language will be used for all bundles. Alternatively, you can select the language for every bundle individually. To do so, you must pass a data frame with the columns session, bundle, language. This data frame must contain one row for every bundle in your emuDB. Up-to-date lists of the languages accepted by all webservices can be found here: https://clarin.phonetik.uni-muenchen.de/BASWebServices/services/help

canoSylAttributeDefinitionName

attribute name for syllabified canonical pronunciations of words

params

named list of parameters to be passed on to the webservice. It is your own responsibility to ensure that these parameters are compatible with the webservice API (see https://clarin.phonetik.uni-muenchen.de/BASWebServices/services/help). Some options accepted by the API (e.g. output format) cannot be set when calling a webservice from within emuR, and will be overridden.

patience

If a web service call fails, it is repeated a further n times, with n being the value of patience. Must be set to a value between 0 and 3.

resume

If a previous call to this function has failed (and you think you have fixed the issue that caused the error), you can set resume=TRUE to recover any progress made up to that point. This will only work if your R temporary directory has not been deleted or emptied in the meantime.
