Paprika.Net
What is Paprika?
Paprika is a language, and software, for generating semi-random arrangements of words - like computer-driven mad-libs. This can be useful for generating game dialogue, tweet bots, and flavour text which have spice and variety! Paprika (the software) takes a "request" and uses it to execute some "grammar" (grammars are the files which make up your random options). Better to show than to tell:
# Here's a grammar file. Hashes denote comments (lines the software should not read)
# Below is a "category", denoted with an asterisk:
* animal
cow
horse
mouse
* nice
lovely
delightful
amazing
If this grammar was loaded, the user could enter the following input to get the following example output:
Check out this [animal]
-> "Check out this cow"
My [animal] is [nice]
-> "My mouse is delightful"
If you run each command again, the output can be different, because the bits in [square brackets]
are randomised.
The language has many more features than this, which you can explore at http://paprika.me.uk
In this repository
Paprika.Net
is the core functionality of the Paprika engine. It can load, parse, execute, and validate grammars and queries. It is well unit-tested in Paprika.NetTests
. This project is available as a NuGet package as SteGriff.Paprika.Net
.
Paprika.Net.Console
is basically a desktop client for Paprika. It's a command line app which calls upon Paprika.Net
, letting you play with and iterate your grammar files rapidly.
Using the Paprika.Net package (API)
WIP
Install the NuGet package using Install-Package SteGriff.Paprika.Net
- Instantiate a
Core
object usingvar engine = new SteGriff.Paprika.Net.Core()
; - Load a grammar with
engine...
- Parse a request with
engine.Parse("My query is [cool/nice]")
- You can select specific values you want to use (instead of random ones) using an overload of
engine.Parse...
Config for Paprika.Net.Console app
By default, the grammars are chosen from the paprika-grammar
submodule (../../paprika-grammar/
) but you can override this in App.config
like so:
<appSettings>
<add key="GrammarRoot" value="C:/path/to/my/paprika-grammar/" />
</appSettings>
The specified directory must contain an index.grammar
file.
