WOPED-Wordnet Microservice

This microservice is designed to support the WOPED/Text2Process service. It exposes two endpoints: one to retrieve the synonyms of a word, and another to find the base form of a word given its part of speech.

Building the Docker Image

1. Install Docker on your system.
2. Navigate to the directory containing the Dockerfile and your application code.
3. Run docker build -t wordnet-microservice . to build the Docker image.

Running the Docker Container

Run docker run -p 5000:5000 wordnet-microservice to start the microservice. The service will be available at http://localhost:5000.

Alternative

Run the start.sh. This builds and runs an instance of the microservice

API Endpoints

Parameters:

• word - The word for which you want to find the base form.
• pos - The part of speech of the word. It should be one of 'n' (noun), 'v' (verb), 'a' (adjective) or 'r' (adverb).

Example:

    "word": "running",
    "pos": "v"
}

}

GET /healthcheck

This endpoints returns a success message if the service is reachable
