Gets a list of annotations that match a particular pattern
getMatchingAnnotations.Rd
Returns the annotations in the corpus that match the given expression.
Arguments
- labbcat.url
URL to the LaBB-CAT instance
- expression
An expression that determines which annotations match. This must match by either id or layer.id. The expression language is currently not well defined, but is based on JavaScript syntax. e.g.
id == 'ew_0_456'
layerId == 'orthography' && !/th[aeiou].+/.test(label)
graph.id == 'AdaAicheson-01.trs' && layer.id == 'orthography' && start.offset > 10.5
layer.id == 'utterance' && all('word').includes('ew_0_456')
layerId = 'utterance' && labels('orthography').includes('foo')
layerId = 'utterance' && labels('participant').includes('Ada')
- page.length
The maximum number of IDs to return, or null to return all
- page.number
The zero-based page number to return, or null to return the first page
Details
The results can be exhaustive, by omitting page.length and page.number, or they can be a subset (a 'page') of results, by given page.length and page.number values.
