Whatlang

Natural language detection in Rust.

Features

• Support more than 50 languages
• 100% written in Rust
• No external dependencies
• Super fast
• Recognizes not only a language, but also a script (Latin, Cyrillic, etc)

Get started

The library is still in active development. Here is the short example how to use it:

Add to you Cargo.toml: ``` [dependencies]

whatlang = "*" ```

In you program:

```rust extern crate whatlang;

use whatlang::{detect_lang, Lang, Script, Query};

fn main() { let text = "Guten Abend, meine Damen und Herren!".tostring(); let query = Query::new(&text); let result = detectlang(query).unwrap(); asserteq!(result.lang, Lang::Deu); asserteq!(result.lang.tocode(), "deu"); asserteq!(result.script, Script::Latin); } ```

Roadmap

• Support 100 most popular languages
• Allow to specify whitelist/blacklist in Query struct
• Provide some metrics about reliability in Result struct
• Tune performance
