WordChunkerBridge

class scikitplot.corpus.WordChunkerBridge(inner)

Bridge for WordChunker → ChunkerBase contract.

Notes

WordChunker splits text at the word-token level, which does not correspond to any named ChunkingStrategy value. CUSTOM is used as the closest approximation — it signals that user-supplied or non-standard logic was applied, and downstream consumers should not assume standard segment boundaries.

Parameters:

inner (Any)

chunk(text, metadata=None)

Chunk text and return (char_start, chunk_text) pairs.

Parameters:

textstr

Raw text to chunk.

metadatadict[str, Any] or None, optional

Raw-chunk metadata dict passed by get_documents(). Forwarded as extra_metadata to the inner chunker where supported.

Returns:

list[tuple[int, str]]

Each element is (char_offset, chunk_text). If the inner chunker does not provide offsets, a forward-cursor scan computes them.

Parameters:

• text (str)

• metadata (dict[str, Any] | None)

Return type:

list[tuple[int, str]]

strategy: ClassVar[ChunkingStrategy] = 'custom'
