Apache OpenNLP Add-ons is a set of optional components built on the Apache OpenNLP API.
Each add-on is published as its own Maven artifact, so an application can take a single integration without taking the dependencies of the others. Shared contracts stay in OpenNLP core; an implementation belongs here when it needs a distinct model format, external data, or an optional third-party library.
Currently, the repository has the following modules:
opennlp-addons-docs : The DocBook sources of the add-ons manual.Depend on the module you need, not on the parent opennlp-addons POM:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.opennlp.addons</groupId>
<artifactId>${addon.artifactId}</artifactId>
<version>${opennlp-addons.version}</version>
</dependency>
compile group: "org.apache.opennlp.addons", name: "${addon.artifactId}", version: "${opennlp-addons.version}"
[!NOTE] No 3.x add-ons release is published yet. Until one is, build this repository locally to use its artifacts.
At least JDK 21 and Maven 3.9.6 are required to build the add-ons.
After cloning the repository go into the destination directory and run:
mvn install
A verify build additionally runs Checkstyle, forbidden API checks, the RAT license header check, and a dependency license report. Use -Pjacoco for coverage.
The manual is written in DocBook XML under opennlp-addons-docs/src/docbkx and builds with the rest of the reactor.
Every contribution is welcome, from a documentation typo fix to a new add-on. To get involved, please follow the instructions here
