wiktionary-de-parser 0.10.1

Extracts data from German Wiktionary dump files.

wiktionary-de-parser

A Python module to extract data from German Wiktionary XML files (for Python 3.11+).

Features

• Extracts flexion tables, IPA transcriptions, language, genus, lemma, part of speech information (basic) and syllables of a word.
• Yields per entry, not per page (a page can have multiple entries/ words can have different meanings)

Installation

pip install wiktionary-de-parser

Or with Poetry:

poetry add wiktionary-de-parser

Usage

from bz2 import BZ2File
from wiktionary_de_parser import Parser

bzfile_path = '/tmp/dewiktionary-latest-pages-articles-multistream.xml.bz2'
bz_file = BZ2File(bzfile_path)

for record in Parser(bz_file):
    if record.lang_code != 'de':
      continue
    # do stuff with 'record'

Note: In this example we load a compressed Wiktionary dump file that was obtained from here.
