[Python] Packages support for German
Hi,
is there a plan or roadmap when approximately the python package (https://pypi.org/project/recognizers-text-suite/) also supports the German culture? Thanks!
Unfortunately we don't current have an estimated time frame for that. What your usage scenario? Would you be interested in helping contribute support?
I am working on a NLP project in English, German and Dutch. So this package would be perfect.
Would you be interested in helping contribute support?
Definitely! Do i "just" have to build a related German language folder and related files as defined in https://github.com/microsoft/Recognizers-Text/tree/master/Python/libraries/recognizers-number/recognizers_number/number? Maybe there is a short documentation how to add new languages to the python packages?
That's basically it, but in creating the extractor/parser configs for German it may be necessary to port over some behaviour from the .NET implementation.
These two links give an overview of concepts and processes. Unfortunately they are .NET focused and may be a little out of date. Let us know if you have questions, ok?

As of the merge of #2914, there's now German support for Number/Currency/DateTimeV2 in Python close to parity with .NET Help is needed to complete the other NumberWithUnit types and close the support gap to .NET.
