The layout now resembles a certain other online translation service.
The translation is started automatically after text is entered, no need to
press the Translate button.
+ Adapt language selection menus to the languages supported by the grammar.
+ Add translation quality colors to the links to alternative translations.
+ Also added more country codes in langcode.js (needed for speech synthesis
voice selection).
The background color of the translation changes to pale green, yellow or red
according to the quality.
Two types of quality indications are supported:
+ From the grammar: linearizations starting with "+" or "*" are assumed to
be of high or low quality, respectively.
+ From the parse tree: if the root function is "?", then the translation is
assumed to be of low quality.
If no quality indications are detected, medium quality is assumed.
In support.js, the functions http_get_json, ajax_http_get_json
and ajax_http_post_json now calls the supplied error callback if the server
returns invalid JSON (e.g. because of a crash).
The function gftranslate.translate in gftranslate.js returns
a JSON value containing an error message (since it doesn't have an error
callback).
This should result in fewer situations where "nothing happens" and the user
doesn't know if it is beacuse the server is slow, or if there was an error.
+ PGFService.hs: add command c-grammar, include probability in parse results
+ js/gftranslation.js: add start position and limit parameters, return more
info to applications
+ Simple Translator: show two wide coverage translations
+ Wide coverage demo: show parse tree and probability (intended as grammar
debugging aids)
The interface to the wide coverage translation is in js/gftranslate.js
and it assumes that the grammar is installed on the cloud server
as /robust/Translate8.pgf.
The list of supported languages is hardwired in gftranslate.js, since
there is no support for obtaining this info from the C run-time system
at the moment.
- separate tree edit buttons from option buttons
- fix bug when wrapping on freshly imported ast
- add interface for import & export of ast
- cleaner internal implementation of Editor.add_refinement
- small style updates
instead of GET, to avoid the Apache httpd URI length limitation.
This means that gfse can no longer use JSONP when parsing grammars, so it
has to be located on the same host as the cloud service.
Also clean away trailing white space in support.js.
Created the folder js and moved minibar/support.js and minibar/pgf_online.js
there, to emphasize their status as app independent support libraries.
There are probably more files that should be moved here.
The cloud apps have been updated, externally hosted apps that link directly
to our server need to be updated too.
