Extracting all the Things

The Regex Extractor is a simple HTTP server that will process a text input and provide a simple collection of label subsets that match configured regular expressions.

Usage

Once the application is built, there are two command line flags:

1. -addr: The address on which the HTTP server will be bound
2. -file: The CSV containing the labels and patterns

Example:

regexextractor -file ./sample.csv

Example Call:

curl http://localhost:8080 -d 'Bill Gates [e-mail]'

Example Output:

{"email":["[e-mail]"],"name":["Bill","Gates"]}

Future Work

• Use github.com/spf13/cobra to handle command line arguments
• Update the build to set to embed a version
• Configure the application to use TLS
