资源说明：Quickly turn command-line applications into RESTful webservices with a web-application front-end. You provide a specification of your command line application, its input, output and parameters, and CLAM wraps around your application to form a fully fledged RESTful webservice.

CLAM allows you to quickly and transparently transform your Natural Language
Processing application into a RESTful webservice, with which both human
end-users as well as automated clients can interact. CLAM takes a description
of your system and wraps itself around the system, allowing end-users or
automated clients to upload input files to your application, start your
application with specific parameters of their choice, and download and view the
output of the application once it is completed.
CLAM is set up in a universal fashion, requiring minimal effort on the part of
the service developer. Your actual NLP application is treated as a black box,
of which only the parameters, input formats and output formats need to be
described. Your application itself needs not be network aware in any way, nor
aware of CLAM, and the handling and validation of input can be taken care of by
CLAM.
CLAM is entirely written in Python, runs on UNIX-derived systems, and is
available as open source under the GNU Public License (v3). It is set up in a
modular fashion, and offers an API, and as such is easily extendable. CLAM
communicates in a transparent XML format, and using XSL transformation offers a
modern client-side generated web-interface for human end users.

Installation
----------------
It's discouraged to download the zip packages or tarballs
from github, install CLAM from the `Python
Package Index `_ or use git properly.
Installation On Linux
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Installation from the Python Package Index using the package manager *pip* it the recommended way to
intall CLAM. This is the easiest method
of installing CLAM, as it will automatically fetch and install any
dependencies. We recommend to use a virtual environment (``virtualenv``) if you
want to install CLAM locally as a user, if you want to install globally,
prepend the following commands with ``sudo``:
CLAM can be installed from the Python Package Index using pip. Pip is usually
part of the ``python3-pip`` package (Debian/Ubuntu) or similar. It downloads CLAM and all dependencies
automatically:::
$ pip3 install clam
If you already downloaded CLAM manually (from github), you can do::
$ python3 setup.py install
If pip3 is not yet installed on your system, install it using:
on debian-based linux systems (including Ubuntu)::
$ apt-get install python3-pip
on RPM-based linux systems::
$ yum install python3-pip
Note that sudo/root access is needed to install globally. Ask your system administrator
to install it if you do not own the system. Alternatively, you can install it locally in a Python virtual
environment:
$ virtualenv --python=python3 clamenv
$ . clamenv/bin/activate
(clamenv)$ pip3 install clam
CLAM also has some optional dependencies. For MySQL support, install
``mysqlclient`` using pip. For `FoLiA `_
support, install ``FoLiA-Tools`` using pip.
Running a test webservice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you installed CLAM using the above method, then you can launch a clam test
webservice using the development server as follows::
$ clamservice -H localhost -p 8080 clam.config.textstats
Navigate your browser to http://localhost:8080 and verify everything works
Note: It is important to regularly keep CLAM up to date as fixes and
improvements are implemented on a regular basis. Update CLAM using::
$ pip install -U clam
