class Attribute(label, value=None, metadata=None, uid=None)[source]#

Medkit attribute, to be added to an annotation

Variables

label (str) – The attribute label
value (Optional[Any]) – The value of the attribute. Should be either simple built-in types (int, float, bool, str) or collections of these types (list, dict, tuple). If you need structured complex data you should create a subclass of Attribute.
metadata (Dict[str, Any]) – The metadata of the attribute
uid (str) – The identifier of the attribute

Methods:

`copy`()	Create a new attribute that is a copy of the current instance, but with a new identifier
`from_dict`(attribute_dict)	Creates an Attribute from a dict
`to_brat`()	Return a value compatible with the brat format
`to_spacy`()	Return a value compatible with spaCy

Return a value compatible with the brat format

to_spacy()[source]#

Return a value compatible with spaCy

Create a new attribute that is a copy of the current instance, but with a new identifier

This is used when we want to duplicate an existing attribute onto a different annotation.
