A Python command-line tool for text summarization that can process both text files and web articles.

## Features
- Summarize text from local files
- Extract and summarize content from web URLs
- Configurable summarization model selection
- Adjustable summary length
- Support for multiple text encodings

## Installation

### From PyPI
```bash
pip install summarymaker
```

### Development Installation
```bash
git clone https://github.com/hwang2006/summarymaker
cd summarymaker
pip install -e .[dev]
```

## Dependencies
- Python >= 3.7
- click>=8.0.0
- transformers>=4.0.0
- torch==2.4.0
- numpy<2.0 
- beautifulsoup4>=4.9.0
- requests>=2.25.0
- flask>=2.0.0 

## Usage
```bash
# Summarize a text file
summarymaker --file examples/test.txt

# Summarize content from a URL
summarymaker --url https://example.com

# Customize the model and summary length
summarymaker --file examples/test_article.txt --model facebook/bart-large-cnn --max-length 200
```

## Flask Web Application
To run the Flask web application, use the following command:
1. Navigate to the src/summarizer/webapp directory.
2. Run the Flask application: 
```bach
python app.py
```
3. Open your web browser and go to http://127.0.0.1:5000/.
4. Choose the input type (URL, File, or Text), provide the input, and click "Summarize".

## Gradio Web Application
### Local Deployment
To run the Gradio web application, use the following command:
1. Navigate to the src/summarizer/webapp directory.
2. Run the Gradio application: 
```bach
python gradio_app.py
```
3. Open your web browser and go to http://127.0.0.1:7860/.
4. This will start a Gradio web server, and you can interact with the summarization application through a web browser.

### Online Deployment on Koyeb
The Gradio web application is deployed on Koyeb, a serverless platform that simplifies hosting and managing applications, allowing quick and scalable deployments. You can try out the SummaryMaker Web application using the following steps:

1. Open your web browser and go to [SummaryMaker on Koyeb](https://distinctive-alida-kisti-defa9b51.koyeb.app/)
2. Choose the input type (URL, File, or Text).
3. Provide the input (URL, upload a file, or enter text directly).
4. Select a text summarization model (e.g., google/flan-t5-small ) on Hugging Face.
5. Optionally adjust the maximum summary length.
6. Click "Summarize" to generate the summary.

## Command-Line Options
- `--file`: Path to a text file to summarize
- `--url`: URL of web content to summarize
- `--model`: Name of the transformer model to use (default: t5-small)
- `--max-length`: Maximum length of the summary in tokens (default: 180)

## Examples
```bash
# Basic file summarization
summarymaker --file examples/test.txt

# Web article summarization
summarymaker --url https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seoul

# Custom model and length. 
# Unlike the t5-base model, the facebook/bart-large-cnn model can handle inputs only up to 512 tokens.
summarymaker --file examples/test_article.md --model facebook/bart-large-cnn --max-length 250

# allenai/led-base-16384 is a Longformer Encoder-Decoder (LED) model designed to handle long sequences.
summarymaker --file examples/test_article.md --model allenai/led-base-16384 --max-length 1024
```

## Development
The project follows a standard Python package structure:
- Source code is located in `src/summarizer/`
- Tests are in the `tests/` directory
- Example files can be found in `examples/`
- Configuration files include `pyproject.toml` and `setup.py`
