First, please note the following:

• The SciAnnotate standalone server only is available in SciAnnotate v1.0 and above.
• The standalone server is experimental and should not be used for sensitive data or systems accessible from the internet.

Run the installation script in “unprivileged” mode

./install.sh -u

Start the standalone server

python standalone.py

You should then be able to access the SciAnnotate server from the address printed out by standalone.py.

• Access the file labelFunctionExecutor.py
• Implement / Import your labeling function
• Add your function and corresponding alias to LABELING_FUNCTION_SET

LABELING_FUNCTION_SET = {"alias": your_new_function}

• Labeling Function Real Time Debug
• Labeling Function Hot Append
• MD5 Color Generation, Stable color for each added labeing function

• Recontruct basic storage logic of annotations from labeling function, annotations from labeling function will appear in ann file like F1, F2, etc...
• Color of annotations which are not defined in visual.conf will be assigned a color based on MD5 hash (Frontend control)
• Remove unnecessary error comments to improve visual effect

• All feature returns which will be rendered by frontend must use get_document to return a complete object

import sys
import re
def contactLabeler(text="", entity_index=None):
    res = dict()
    entities = [
        ["F" + str(next(entity_index)), "Contact-Email", [(pos.start(), pos.end())], text[pos.start(): pos.end()]]
        for pos in re.finditer("^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+(\.[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)+$", text)
    ]
    entities.extend(
        [
            ["F" + str(next(entity_index)), "Contact-Phone", [(pos.start(), pos.end())], text[pos.start(): pos.end()]]
            for pos in re.finditer("(\d{3}[-\.\s]??\d{3}[-\.\s]??\d{4}|\(\d{3}\)\s*\d{3}[-\.\s]??\d{4}|\d{3}[-\.\s]??\d{4})", text)
        ]
    )
    entity_list = set()
    for index, entity in enumerate(entities):
        entity_list.add(entity[1])
        entities[index][1] = '{}_{}'.format(str(sys._getframe().f_code.co_name), entity[1])
    res["entities"] = entities
    return res
