## Overview

This library aims to provide the GloVe algorithm in a nearly-unaltered format relative to its original distribution by stanfordnlp.

The bulk of the alterations consist of removing the `main()` methods from the glove applications, and converting them to accept filenames instead of stdin/stdout. (See pull requests [1](https://github.com/ttymck/crucyble/pull/1), [2](https://github.com/ttymck/crucyble/pull/2), and [3](https://github.com/ttymck/crucyble/pull/3))

These altered C sources are then wrapped with Cython to provide "native extensions" in the Python runtime.

## Development

### Local Testing
**Prerequisites**: `gcc` and [cython](https://cython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/quickstart/install.html) installed.

To test this library locally:
1. clone the repo
2. from `crucyble/` run `python setup.py build_ext -i`
3. try: `PYTHONPATH=. python test/test_glove.py`
4. examine the outputs!

You can change the corpus variable in `test_glove.py` to point to any corpus you have locally.
