###About Wikiminer is a wrapper for the Wikipedia API that provides data mining functionality. By simply providing the title of a Wikipedia article, Wikiminer returns a promise, passing through an object that contains:

  • the text of that article
  • the text of that article stripped of stopwords
  • an array containing the most common words in the article and their occurences
  • an array containing the least common words in the article and their occurences

When finding most and least common words, case is ignored and singular and plural versions of words are counted together.

###Usage

npm install wikiminer
const wikiminer = require('wikiminer');
wikiminer(*title*, *topCount*, *leastCount*);
  • title: String, must be a valid title of a Wikipedia page.
  • topCount: Number, number of words to include in most common words list. Default: 20
  • leastCount: Number, number of words to include in least common words list. Default: 20

result structure { text: '', textMinusStop: '', topWords: [], leastWords: [] }

###Example

The following example

const wikiminer = require('wikiminer');

wikiminer('dog', 5, 5)
.then(function(result){
  console.log(result)
})

Will print to the console:

{
  text: /*the text of the dog article*/,
  textMinusStop: /*the text of the dog article without stop words */ ,
  topWords:[ { word: 'dog', count: 345 },
     { word: 'human', count: 60 },
     { word: 'wolf', count: 48 },
     { word: 'breed', count: 47 },
     { word: 'pet', count: 40 } ],
  leastWords: [ { word: 'inadequate', count: 1 },
     { word: 'taxa', count: 1 },
     { word: 'colour', count: 1 },
     { word: 'sobriquet', count: 1 },
     { word: 'etymology', count: 1 } ]
}
