getMatchingGraphIds {nzilbb.labbcat}R Documentation

Deprecated synonym for getMatchingTranscriptIds.

Description

Gets a list of IDs of graphs (i.e. transcript names) that match a particular pattern.

Usage

getMatchingGraphIds(
  labbcat.url,
  expression,
  page.length = NULL,
  page.number = NULL,
  order = NULL
)

Arguments

labbcat.url

URL to the LaBB-CAT instance

expression

An expression that determines which graphs match

page.length

The maximum number of IDs to return, or null to return all

page.number

The zero-based page number to return, or null to return the first page

order

An expression that determines the order the graphs are listed in - if specified, this must include the keyword 'ASC' for ascending or 'DESC' for descending order.

Details

The results can be exhaustive, by omitting pageLength and page.number, or they can be a subset (a 'page') of results, by given pageLength and page.number values.

The order of the list can be specified. If ommitted, the graphs are listed in ID order.

The expression language is currently not well defined, but is based on JavaScript syntax.

Expressions such as those in the examples can be used.

Value

A list of graph IDs (i.e. transcript names)

Examples

## Not run: 
## define the LaBB-CAT URL
labbcat.url <- "https://labbcat.canterbury.ac.nz/demo/"

## Get all transcripts whose names start with "BR"
transcripts <- getMatchingGraphIds(labbcat.url, "/^BR.+/.test(id)")

## Get the first twenty transcripts in the "QB" corpus
transcripts <- getMatchingGraphIds(
        labbcat.url, "first('corpus').label = 'QB'", 20, 0)

## Get the second transcript that has "QB247_Jacqui" as a speaker
transcripts <- getMatchingGraphIds(
        labbcat.url, "labels('participant').includes('QB247_Jacqui')", 1, 1)

## Get all transcripts in the QB corpus whose names start with "BR"
## in word-count order 
transcripts <- getMatchingGraphIds(
        labbcat.url, "first('corpus').label = 'QB' && /^BR.+/.test(id)", 
        order="first('transcript_word_count').label ASC")
