Note: THIS IS NOT PRODUCTON CODE. This SDK is example code to get you started making programmatic calls to AlchemyAPI.

This is a .NET (C#) implementation of the AlchemyAPI SDK. Mono and .NET sections for installation and examples are below. AlchemyAPI keys can be downloaded from alchemyapi.com

INSTALLATION

To compile this module and generate the AlchemyAPI.dll file, enter the "module" directory and run the "build.sh" script.

To install this module, copy the AlchemyAPI.dll file created from the previous step into your desired .NET import directory, or set your MONO_PATH environment variable to point to the directory containing the compiled AlchemyAPI.dll file.

RUNNING EXAMPLES

Several code examples are included to illustrate using the AlchemyAPI for named entity extraction, text classification, language identification, and other tasks.

All code samples are within the "example" directory.

To run these code samples you must first edit the (example/api_key.txt) file, adding your assigned AlchemyAPI API key.

Compiling Code Samples:

1. Run "build.sh" (Compiles code using Mono)

Running Code Samples:

1. Entity Extraction: ./run-test.sh entities.exe

2. Concept Tagging: ./run-test.sh concepts.exe

3. Keyword Extraction: ./run-test.sh keywords.exe

4. Text Categorization: ./run-test.sh categories.exe

5. Language Identification: ./run-test.sh language.exe

6. HTML Text Extraction: ./run-test.sh text_extract.exe

7. HTML Structured Content Scraping: ./run-test.sh constraint_queries.exe

8. Microformats Extraction: ./run-test.sh microformats.exe

9. RSS / ATOM Feed Links Extraction: ./run-test.sh feed_links.exe

10. Sentiment Analysis: ./run-test.sh sentiment.exe

11. Relations Extraction: ./run-test.sh relations.exe

12. Example Parameter Usage: ./run-test.sh parameters.exe

13. Author Extraction ./run-test.sh author.exe

INSTALLATION

To compile this module and generate the AlchemyAPI.dll file, enter the "module" directory and run the "build.bat" script.

To install this module, copy the AlchemyAPI.dll file generated from the previous step into your desired .NET import directory. For purposes of running examples, the dll is copied into the example folder.
