The SpellingHero is just someone who wants to get started on open source contributions. What better way than by fixing spelling mistakes in documentation? SpellingHero scours github for fixes to make, in a similar but unrelated fashion to Wikipedia bots. Maybe SpellingHeroine will be the first in a line of Github bots. Who knows?
I highly encourage the use of virtual
environments. However, user escalating
to root always works in a pinch.
Install dependencies with: pip install -r requirements.txt
For good results, you probably want to start with a nice text corpus (even
though the spell checker gets better with use). big.txt is included as a
sample corpus, but you should add text files to the corpus directory for
better results. I started out with the
python documentation. In the
future, I'll
provide a pickle file in the repo, but the spell checking engine will go
through major revisions before that.
